Usually about 50. And they invisibly rank their waitlists from what I’m gathering. They send them out in batches as a way of ranking them.

Thank you! It looks like they’ve done two waves of WL so far bc I just got one today and others got their last week. I’m very curious how many people are in each wave

Just received WL. Interviewed on 10/28.

I will be waiting for your call Riverside😭♥️

Post II rejection rn

When did you interview??

 

[hey hey 1234]

Were the people who got post II rejections haider applicants?

 

[highlander0003]

Anyone know when we should expect pulls off the WL?

 

[Deggroll]

Anyone know when we should expect pulls off the WL?

Most of it will occur after April 30th.

Anyone know when we should expect pulls off the WL?

Historically, the WL begins to move around early-mid may. However, WL have been sent out earlier this year compared to previous years so that may correlate with earlier movement as well.

 

[Sphygmomanometer]

+1 IS Pre-II R again?

If they reject me twice, does it cancel out and become an acceptance?

 

[The OTC]

Rejected me again - that bad huh?

 

[Pre-Med2222]

Where are my March interviewers at!?!? Lets hope for some news this week!!

 

[Deggroll]

Anyone here attending open house?

 

[maybeapotentialdoc]

Anyone here attending open house?

Thinking about doing it! Gonna try everything to get off the WL lol

 

[Basalganglia4life]

Would attending the open house that is open to anyone really make that big of an impact on your waitlist?

Realistically not at all, but my copium says it will! lol

Hey all! Any accepted students still checking this thread? I’m a current MS1 who was wondering if there was an admitted students chat or anything like that on some other platform.

There are a couple announcements we’d like to make/say congrats to admitted applicants! Good luck to everyone applying!

 

[Basalganglia4life]

Has anyone on the wl seen their CYMS updated yet?

I was placed on the wl over two weeks ago and it’s still not on my CYMS

same here

fingers crossed this means we're not on an official waitlist and will be hearing back before 4/30 ://

Is that a thing? An unofficial waitlist? For the people who were waitlisted second batch does your waitlist show on CYMS? I was first batch and it doesn't show.

I'm not sure if it's a official "thing" but for CUSM I was waitlisted early on and then accepted late March so hopefully UCR is doing something similar with the first batch of WLs where they will start moving people off even before 4/30 *fingers crossed*

 

[Basalganglia4life]

does anyone see riverside on their CYMS?

I was second batch and I don’t see it either! Although- based on last years WL it’s unclear whether the batches are actually correlated to priority or not. I’m curious when we’ll start to hear back! Previous years seemed to hear back as early as a week which is so nerve wracking

 

[Pre-Med2222]

Any March interviewees hear back yet???

 

[premed-2323]

Any March interviewees hear back yet???

Nothing yet 🫠

 

[minecraftluvr]

not a peep 😐

 

[Deggroll]

wouldn’t be surprised if some movement occurs next week after the 15th

 

[Basalganglia4life]

[USSFSpecialist]

I worded that bad, I meant do u need to have a least 1 acceptance to see the tool. I googled it and yeah that’s the case. I can’t see my CYMS cus I got 0 As, just hella WLs.

[hey hey 1234]

I hope march interview results come out tomorrow 😭

 

[DrBlueWaters]

Any waitlist movement?

 

[Pre-Med2222]

Just got waitlisted

 

[hey hey 1234]

Same

 

[Luckyduckcoin]

Sorry man. But they usually have good waitlist movement. Surprised they sent you a waitlist email this late at night. They must be working overtime 😂

 

[hey hey 1234]

Did a lot of people get on the WL?

 

[Pre-Med2222]

Does anyone know if they regularly pull off waitlist? Or is there a date they start pulling from there?

(Ex: UC Davis doesn’t start pulling from theirs until After May)

 

[Nglde]

+1 IS WL

 

[spicyvodkapasta]

Anybody remember or have an estimate of when UCR typically starts pulling from WL?

After may 1st :/

Can anyone give me tips on how to stand out as a UCR med school applicant? I'm open to having my personal statement read for those who got interviewed. This is literally my dream school. I'm strongly community-driven and an IE native and UCR undergrad, but my cGPA is low at 3.2. I plan to do great on the MCAT, aiming for at least 510. I do have an academic warning. I have also been reading up on getting an HPAC letter, but will that harm my application? Has anyone here gotten an HPAC letter or one from UCR when applying to med school? What are y'all thoughts on that?
