It was probably sent to students on MD only Waitlist. They’re trying to get more students interested in the MD/MBA program.What did the text say? I’m on the WL for the MD/MBA program… was it only sent to students with an A or to all students who’ve interviewed?
Congrats! is it for the MD/MBA program?JUST GOT OFF THE WAITLIST!!! OOS A +1 🥳🫡
Just for the regular MD program!Congrats! is it for the MD/MBA program?
you don't need to take the GMAT/GRE, your MCAT counts for that. You just need to write a PS about why you want to study business and get one LOR, then do an interview. Definitely still something you can do - at the end of the day Miami wants people doing dual degrees. More tuition in their pockets and they get to keep their title as the #1 med school for dual degrees.For people doing the MD/MBA program, I am interested but I have 0 business experience. Is it still something I can do? How about the GMAT / GRE? Did accepted students already take it?
If I may ask, when did you interview?OOS A yesterday!!!!

Sounds good but if it was in that range?“Practice FLs: 510–512 range, taking in May”
Take the MCAT
Then yeah, you have a “shot”. But no one can definitely say yes/no. We aren’t in admissions rooms, we also don’t have a concrete score for you.Sounds good but if it was in that range?
Is this supposed to be a test to gauge our interest 😭Why give me a campus tour email when I'm not even accepted😭
You can submit your FAFSA if you want but they require a CSS Profile for financial aid consideration which costs $$ to submit. You could submit if you want but may feel a little silly if you send it in and get rejected (at least this is my thinking since I’m also on the WL)Does anyone know if waitlisted applicants are supposed to submit financial aid documents now, or only if we get accepted?
I did notFor those of you that did sign up for a tour, did you get a confirmation email?
Yes, they sent it the day before mine.Do they send any more information about the tours closer to the date?
Not an October interviewee, but I interviewed in November and am still on the waitlist!is anyone who interviewed in october still on the waitlist?
How do I join fb group of accepted students?JUST GOT OFF THE WAITLIST!!! OOS A +1 🥳🫡

100%, vast majority of movement is gonna start tomorrow and will extend until June.Keep in mind, it is still 4/30. Waitlist movement really starts tomorrow, and more than likely next week. Don’t despair y’all!

They will email you the link.Can anyone send over the link for the Facebook pls... 😊 Just got accepted off WL this morning!
