Wait what?? I'm so sorry, that's so messed up. Do you still have an A as an MD student rather than MD/PhD?

They didn't say; they said you could talk to them about possible deferral / priority consideration in the next cycle (but didn't guarantee it in the email lol). Not a great look for the school, I'll be honest. Especially since they had assured us all at second look, multiple times, that they would not pull As for their accepted cohort.

That’s so frustrating; I’m so sorry. I’m surprised too because every other school I’ve heard about who’s had to pull PhD As has kept the MD ones. I dont understand why that should affect your place in the MD class and I’m so sorry you have to deal with this. ❤️

Yeah, definitely not optimal! Thankfully I have other excellent options, but I do wish they would have told us there was a possibility of rescinding these As ahead of time -- some people hadn't even had time to finish going to other schools' second looks and thus wouldn't have been able to make a fully informed decision anyway. And maybe this is also a lesson to be extra cautious whenever you're asked to trust your schools' or programs administration.

Can like 50-100 accepted students decline their acceptance so I have a shot at making it off the waitlist? Thanks!! ✌️😘

 

[orthobro12]

Just withdrew my A! good luck to whoever gets my spot <3

 

[goldenretriever25]

Just withdrew my A with scholarship. Goodluck to you all today!! 🙂

 

[u1298041]

anyone literally tweaking out cause i can barely sit still with all the decisions about to start up again?

 

[futuresurg613]

are there any IS WL hopes? Guessing most IS people accepted due to cost so probably not at this point

knowing UNC I’m still going to wait like a month and a half to hear anything… in a sense there’s some peace to that

Yeah, I would wager that most waitlist movement will be for OOS folks.

 

[NealCaffrey_15]

Does anyone know UNC's Commit to enroll date?

 

[northgal9000]

Does anyone know UNC's Commit to enroll date?

July 2 according to the AAMC 2025 MSAR Application Timeline pdf, but not sure if UNC released any updated deadlines

 

[docjflowers]

Withdrew IS A today, hope it goes to one of you!! Very bittersweet & such a great school <3

 

[valencia3947402]

Back to the super fun waiting game 🤩

 

[scrambledeggs217]

As mentioned earlier I will be shocked to hear anything this month, or at all...

Thank you so much! I only ask because the timeline for another school I got into has a different deadline than the MSAR data 😵

Congratulations! Did they email/call? Also did they provide any information about how many people they waitlisted or are planning to accept off the waitlist and what was your interview date?

I got a call from Dr. Rahangdale- she said she was calling a lot of people but nothing specific. I interviewed 9/9!

Congrats on the A! Not to bombard you with questions but is that who interviewed you or do you know if they’re in charge of calling all waitlisted applicants? Also, do you mind sharing your stats? Thank you!

Dr. Rahangdale is the chair of the UNC admissions committee. I imagine she will be calling all applicants accepted from the waitlist to expedite things

 

[shinymagikarp]

I really hope the "a lot of people" means over the course of waitlist movement and not just that 11:30am-ish time block..

 

[MichealScottDerekShep]

hoping for some good news anytime now.....

Dr. R did happen to be my interviewer but I think she was calling everyone accepted off the waitlist. My LM was 78! Happy to give any other info if you want… my app was pretty much centered on wanting to go into rural care in NC so I imagine that helped me.

 

[gasces]

Does anyone know if UNC ever matches scholarships or do they have a specific policy against that? I only have until Wednesday to accept my spot so I’m not sure if that’s enough time to negotiate but wanted to hear you guys’ thoughts on this!

 

[TaminLipseyFan1]

IS A off the waitlist yesterday afternoon! I didn't answer the phone call but got an email about an hour later. LM82

 

[valencia3947402]

So a majority of the WL movement probably happened Friday, right?

 

[astroworld1234]

So a majority of the WL movement probably happened Friday, right?

According to last year’s thread, it doesn’t seem like it

 

[gasces]

So a majority of the WL movement probably happened Friday, right?

I got off the waitlist on Friday and have until Wednesday to accept or not- I imagine that maybe Thursday or Friday they would be able to call more people since probably not everyone called on Friday will take their spot in the class. I hope that’s helpful but really who can tell with these things!

 

[curlydoctor]

thank you everyone for the updates it's been really helpful! to those on the WL (including myself) all we can do is stay positive and hope for the best. crossing my fingers for yall!

For my waitlist peeps, we have had about 26 people leave the accepted students group chat in the past two weeks

Thank you for the report! How many people are currently in the group chat?

 

[ncpremed245]

Around 181, but I know a few people personally who haven’t joined the chat

 

[cbhumbe]

Any clue on class size this year? Website says two-hundred and thirty but I’ve heard it could be less

 

[FLOSC]

Got off the waitlist earlier today. IS A!

 

[scrambledeggs217]

Where did you hear that? Just wondering bc they said 230 at the interview, and I'm wondering if maybe changes in funding are affecting the class size.

That’s good to hear! Someone that I know expressed their uncertainty on class size, but it had nothing to do with funding. Sorry for the confusion.

 

[scrambledeggs217]

Idk if anyone has any insight, but does anybody know what proportion of the waitlist they admit at a time? If for example there were 15 spots that were open on the waitlist last Friday, did they call all 15 people or are they doing it in waves? I know I sound crazy 🙃

Very much wondering this too!

 

[valencia3947402]

I wish they gave us more information about how the waitlist process works. Maybe we'll understand why we're not allowed to know once we're on the other side, but I hate having no idea what my chances are here and feeling like I'll never know

It sucks that schools like UNC can get away with doing this bc they know there will always be people who will attend. And what aggravates me the most is that this process was so much easier 20+ years ago when the admissions committee applied, so they're out of touch with all the hoops we've had to jump

 

[futuresurg613]

IS A off WL last night after interviewing in september and waitlisted in march. no words at how much this means :,) For what’s its worth to everyone waiting she said they would be busy today with graduation so maybe that means more calls coming weekend/next week.

so happy for you! I hope there are more calls coming within the next week!

 

[Blank-account8]

Really seems like they're moving through the waitlist, rather than sending out waves, but still hard to tell.

 

[user5083]

So should we also expect more movement after June 2nd (the commit to enroll deadline)? I was thinking that by the end of May, I'll give up hope (mostly), but I'm unsure how that deadline plays into things.

 

[shinymagikarp]

I’m just sad y’all
