Found a really awesome (and up-to-date) FAQ/resource for any accepted students interested in a "What I wish I knew" document compiled by medical students! "What I Wish I Knew" - UCSF Med School

If you're reading this, thanks sm to the current med students who helped make this!!

 

[doctastrange]

Bro 💀😭 Respectfully, you need to get off SDN and touch grass. You haven't even applied yet and, even if you have a perfect app, the likelihood of you getting into UCSF or Duke (the schools you've commented on) is very low. Comparing match lists is also effectively worthless because in theory a given class at a school could all be interested in FM or peds. If everyone went FM would you think lesser of the school? lol

 

[doctastrange]

"if everyone went FM would you think lesser of the school"

in UCSF's case I already think significantly lower of the school

 

[premedwhoopss]

anyway when do yall think the next round of decisions will go out? this week or probably next?

 

[neymarpluto]

that's cool.

anyone got the match list?

Bro this is one of the best medical schools in the country (if not the best). Chances of anyone getting in is close to zero. Here is the PD rankings also if it helps you (). However, as Tony said you need to go outside and touch some grass!!! And for your knowledge match lists are not indicative of quality of a program.

Folks, some separate conversations were causing this thread to be derailed for applicants awaiting decisions. Posts have been deleted to help avoid escalating emotions.

Here is a picture of a dog to brighten up people's day:

Does anyone have any predictions for when the next post ii decisions wave will be? I was looking on last years thread and it was 3/2 (a Friday), but wasn't sure what other people thought. I interviewed on 1/31 and am really excited about UCSF 😀

My best guess would be EOW (Thursday/Friday) next week 🙂 so like 3/06 or 3/07

When are accepted students able to apply for ucsf housing/what does the timeline look like? Any insight from current students would be appreciated.

huge congrats!!! Do you know if they sent out all the acceptances yesterday? Also waiting on MSTP and wondering if yesterday was it

 

[deleted1203030]

Has anyone received any UCSF JMP updates recently?

Not sure, but good luck!!

Are decisions coming out tomorrow?

 

[yoomi]

Are decisions coming out tomorrow?

Most likely based on past threads! For the second interview cohort and I guess the people from the first cohort too who never got a decision

 

[T N]

Are decisions coming out tomorrow?

The staff did say they'd release decisions at the beginning of March if not at the end of February. So I think it's tomorrow

Does anyone know the rough estimate of the total cost of 4 years for OOS? Is UCSF usually generous with financial aid?

I would imagine the cost-of-attendance is on their website, as most schools have it listed

Average graduating debt is easy enough to look up at about $135k, with something like 70-ish% of students being IS

 

[matchamed9]

Are decisions coming out today?

 

[premedwhoopss]

anyone know what time decisions came out last year?

 

[brainrottt]

Not sure about last year but I got an email around 4:30 est during the Feb wave

 

[deleted1203030]

Im literally crashing out waiting this is unbearable. No way they do next week

 

[deleted1203030]

Hold up maybe this is a 5pm PST switcheroo...

 

[matchamed9]

The past two years JMP heard back As by like 10-11 AM PST which was the sign decisions would be released later in the day. I don't think there were any reported JMP As this morning (unless they've done all those decisions already lol) so maybe it isn't today ? idk I'm losing it

If anyone on here interviewed and accepted to the PRIME program at UCSF of UCDavis, would you be up for sharing via DM about the experience/process? Thanks so much! And CONGRATS to all accepted students.

I received a secondary from UCSF this year but no II. Planning to retake MCAT and specifically interested in the serving underserved communities aspect and want to strengthen my app.

 

[deleted1203030]

Hi all I don't mean to spam but I'm guessing it is assumed it will be this upcoming Friday (3/14/2025)? Like is it a fs thing they only release on Fridays?

Feb release this year was on a Thursday and last year the second release date was on a Wednesday, so I don’t think it’s a fs thing unfortunately 😭

[deleted1203030]

Congrats to all who received and will receive acceptances today!!! Something about this release is hitting close to home like kind of the wrap up of the entire premed journey up until now (for me at least). Be proud everyone.

 

[deleted1196999]

Congrats! are you JMP?

Nope! Regular MD and interviewed on the last date in February.

 

[T N]

I dont know why I am feeling sad at the thought I might not get accepted 😭

 

[premedwhoopss]

Nope! Regular MD and interviewed on the last date in February.
