Anything today?

Anything today?

Nothing. If we do hear anything more it may not be till the end of next week, that will be 2 weeks since the last round of A's.

Reminder that CTE is Monday June 23rd, so if there is more movement I personally would expect it to be this week and Monday at the latest. Anyone remaining on PTE atp has to get off another WL this week basically or be forced to CTE (or withdraw and risk not matriculating anywhere). I bet if people withdraw they call someone off the WL ASAP since that deadline is rapidly approaching and there are forms due on the June 23rd for admitted students (white coat order form). Fingers crossed for you guys there is more movement <3

Do they call only or send an email if they want to accept or both? I will be going overseas, just on the off chance they contact me

They usually do both.

 

[blahblahbrah]

Yall think they’ll even get to tier two?

I really hope so. Just my guess but I figure they have to be close to being done with tier one and hopefully after that they can do at least something in tier two.

 

[alteredstate]

Anyone heard anything?

 

[neurongonewild]

Has anyone called recently?

I committed to enroll at this school this morning.

Would it be bad to email the school about status updates? I'm planning for a reapp but I don't want to spend all that money without knowing what's going on

You may know this but if you didn't when you apply you can add just one placeholder school (and thus only pay for that one school at that time) and then add more schools later just before your application is verified if you don't end up being admitted.

Yes, but I would like to add more schools if possible sooner rather than later since stuff gets sent out the 27th. Just worried cause it's getting late and don't want to be behind for next cycle while still waiting on this one

Best to probably play it safe in that case, its a cruel process.

I think because CTE is today, it would be perfectly reasonable to ask for an update!

 

[neurongonewild]

Called adcom.
They said that since today is CTE they won’t know abt movement until the end of todsy.
they said tomorrow or wednrsdsh is the best bet.

Thank you for doing that! Idk how you guys feel, but at this point, if I get called even A DAY before class starts, I'm taking it lol

 

[neurongonewild]

if anyone wants to call today let us know if you do 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Hi all, I hate to be the bearer of bad news but my pre-med advisor just reached out to her contact at OUWB who told her that the class "appears to be full at the current time".

Pretty disastrous WL movement this year compared to last year.

 

[alteredstate]

Oh wow okay wasn’t expecting that. Wish they would email us some updates

Me too, I'm still going to call Monday to confirm just in case they were wrong or misinformed.

Hey, did you get a chance to call by any chance?

I did, they were very polite on the phone. I asked if the class was full and they said the class is "not finalized" and will not be finalized for a few weeks. To be honest I don't know what "finalized" means in this context. My guess is that it could generally mean two things:

1. The class is full but the admissions committee still needs to meet to do something to finalize the class.
2. The class is not full and the admissions committee still needs to meet to figure out who to send the last offers to.

Again that's just my complete guess I could be totally wrong.

I wish I had a better answer for everyone as it is getting extremely late in the cycle.

The way I'm thinking about it is just assuming there won't be further movement so if there is it will be a pleasant surprise.

I’m sorry y’all are going through this ):

Another thought is the class may not be “finalized” until they verify we all met and completed the pre-matriculation requirements which most are due today. I think it may take them those few weeks to verify things and track down people that are missing something.

I don’t want to be a downer, but I also don’t want to give false hope and screw people over on re-app, so my personal opinion is the class is likely full and they just don’t want to officially reject people from WL until they are 100% sure everyone is going to actually be able to matriculate (what if somehow there is an anti-vaxer who refuses to get the mandatory vaccines or someone failed their classes this past semester). To be real, I wouldn't bank on any of that to happen, but I think it’s why the school is hesitant to actually reject people until they are certain and I’m p sure that most schools do this too post-CTE.

Hang in there y’all, I can’t imagine what you’re going through and if it were me I know I would be pretty devastated based on there being such a disparity of movement between this cycle and last. Feel free to DM me if you need to vent/want someone to chat with.
