Did anyone from late October interview, late November dean session hear back yet? Feel like I haven't heard any A's, WL's from anyone around that time...

I was accepted in late January following this similar timing for interview and deans session. I also had my student interview scheduled in late December.

Does anyone know if NJMS class attendance is non mandatory? Or is everyday attendance required for lectures?

Yeah, it seems they are making final decisions somewhat sequentially. We'll probably hear something soon.

I think this week will probably have more results sent out if the past years SDN forums are accurate. Seems a majority go out during March.

 

[neurokidpop1840]

anyone hear anything today?

 

[hooddoctor]

Whats a PAL? I’ve never seen this acronym before 😭.

Priority Alternate List

 

[Landcloud]

If you've decided not to join NJMS, kindly withdraw your acceptance. This will not only free up a seat for another qualified applicant but also provide them with much-needed peace of mind. Humble request

Tbf, the April 15th and April 30th deadlines on AAMC should weed out some of these people. But I agree with the sentiment

I missed a call from the financial aid office here yesterday and was told to call back but they left the message from a no caller ID, does anyone know where I can find the number? The website isn’t too clear

 

[futuredoc73]

Has anyone heard anything about scholarship/financial aid information for next year yet?

I missed this call as well, the number was 973-972-4376. Does anyone know what this call is about?

I just received it. They asked me if I had filled out and submitted my FAFSA and uploaded my social security card to the my.rutgers portal.

+1 PAL. Does anyone have info on the tiers of the waitlist/movement possibility?

+1 PAL. Does anyone have info on the tiers of the waitlist/movement possibility?

Based on previous years’ post, NJMS likely have PAL and AL. Basically nobody gets off of the regular AL but there is usually some movement off the PAL, although it is very low. Low as in there are some years where 0 people get in off the PAL/AL, with most years being ~1-5, although there are definitely people who got in who don’t post on SDN, so that number may be higher. They also have an “unofficial” HPAL. People who are on HPAL might not be told that until the moment they got called and accepted.

Side note: Did anybody receive a “you will be among the first group of applicants to be reviewed” in their PAL email? Is that something they send to everybody on the PAL?

Thank you for the info. I just received PAL this morning and I do have “you will be among the first group of applicants to be reviewed” in my email as well. My interview was on Nov. Many students with later interview dates received PAL email earlier than me, so I doubt that I will be among the first group to be reviewed 🤣but let's stay hopeful~~

 

[YankeeFan123]

+1 IS PAL. Are they done with regular acceptances before WL movement in May?

There was an acceptance reported last year on SDN mid April, which could be the case for this year. I'm sure movement will mostly come in May though. Haven't gotten in contact w/admissions yet regarding this.
