OOS A off the WL a couple hours ago!

congrats! anyone else?

 

[lilturtledoc]

OOS A off the WL at around 3 PM EST. !!!!! SO EXCITED

 

[ApreMD]

Has anyone gathered anything useful from admissions calls and or emails? I would be willing to do call or email, but the only other time I did so, they were very generic and would not provide any numbers about relative class size and or waitlist movement and claimed they send offers out as they get withdrawals despite multiple emails being sent out at the same time.

 

[fieryphoenix]

at this point, are chances of getting off the waitlist pretty close to 0?

 

[robot_soup]

Idk but I’m crashing out 🙁

Does anyone know how to get GroupMe access?

Does anyone know how to get GroupMe access?

You have to join the facebook, then the groupme link is there. You have to send a ss of your acceptance in order to join. They said not to post the groupme link anywhere for privacy purposes, that way only people with verified acceptance can join.

any updates anybody ? also if anyone could let us know how many people are in the groupme that would be great

Anyone know the difference between the MCV HS Immunization Checklist and VCU Health Sciences Certification of Immunization in the transition to medical school checklist? The VCU Certification of Immunization is the only one with its own form attached to be filled out so not sure if both forms are within that one or...?

Ignore the checklist one, you don't need to worry about that, only do the certification one

Was anyone who got an A today holding a previous acceptance elsewhere? It looks like they only consider applicants with no acceptances starting in June

[Tas782]

Do we think the class is pretty much full?

 

[balugawhale8]

Do we think the class is pretty much full?

Anyone want to call admissions to find out and let us know?

 

[SleepieSheep]

Just withdrew my OOS A off the waitlist (received back in May). Good luck to everyone else waiting! VCU was my only A just a week ago so I’m super excited for whoever this spot goes to 😊

 

[WhispyPanda]

Does anyone have any experience calling admissions? Who do you speak with and are they helpful with answering questions?

Also wondering this

 

[ApreMD]

They are very nice but only tell you everything that you already know. They maintain they send out acceptances as they get withdraws and can’t comment on any specifics. Any specific data/stats they will direct you to email Dr. Jackson, but you will likely not get a response (I emailed twice with no response ever).

But if anyone has a different experience or anything noteworthy to share please do!

theyre very nice but you will literally not get anything from them. very vague answers. so there isn't really a point in calling

Just got in off the waitlist on Tuesday 6/10! In-state if that helps, with no other acceptances or waitlists. I'm still waiting on my BannerID, which is unfortunately preventing me from doing some of the onboarding paperwork that's due soon. Has anyone figured out how to resolve this issue, or should I just wait for the BannerID to autopopulate? Thanks in advance!

Anyone give them a call recently to inquire if movement is still happening or if their class is full?

I did, they literally won’t tell you anything besides them saying waitlist movement happens until classes start
