I think they have it on Friday's. From what I remember from the info session, they told us we should hear back tomorrow or Monday, but the email said by next Friday for sure!
I was talking to someone who got accepted last year and they said they got a call.
I’m still waiting too—really worried that it seems way later than last year’s Idaho invites :/
Congrats!! Spokane or Seattle?
spokane!
What day did you interview?
Just call, they said official email will go out at a later date
Ah i see I see I’m currently traveling outside of the country so I guess I’ll let the nervousness bite me throughout the weekend lolll
No, I interviewed in November and was SUC until now!
forgot to mention it was for the spokane foundation site
My theory is that the committee is going down the list in order. That’s why the A’s we’ve been seeing are SUC from December dates. I’m guessing those of us who interviewed January will hear back next week sometime.
No downside at all
If you scroll down on this page, they provide detailed information on how far they got down the alternate list by site for the last few years! Acceptance Statistics | UW Medicine
I don't think this is true. I interviewed last week on Thursday and got my A call on Friday just about 24h after my interview. Also, is there a group for accepted spokane students?
I am also wanting to know if there is a group chat for Spokane cohort!
There probably is going to be some movement with most of the movement expected in April. If someone who has an acceptance to UW commits to enroll at a different school, they are immediately not considered for matriculation at UW and thus the next person on the alternate list will be offered an acceptance. Not sure how often they update the alt list/extend acceptances though.
This is wild. Any more info you can provide? Leaked how?
Thanks that's very helpful.
If I had to speculate, I would say because the Seattle applicant pool is generally more competitive and applicants are getting multiple As and choosing to go elsewhere. Perhaps the type of applicant that applies to each campus is a bit different. Maybe more Spokane applicants are from eastern Washington and are more likely to stay, thus increasing yield.
Are they only expanding seats in AK or across cohorts?
I'm not sure for outside of AK; for Alaska it's 25 -> 30
Yes.....per AAMC "rules." Regional sites submit names of people they would like to enroll in their incoming WWAMI class on the Friday Excom meeting of the week in which they interview applicants. But the total Excom group votes on acceptance or rejection or wait listing for the regional sites. It can become a "Battle Royale" with the regional site people being passionate about the applicants they have chosen after interviewing and the Seattle Excom members questioning their decisions.
