they do, i just emailed them asking what tier i was and they responded pretty quick - there's three tiers i believe (top/middle/low)
Are we able to ask about our individual waitlist status? I was not sure if we could do that based on the email they sent. Also what exactly do the tiers mean in terms of likelihood of getting off the waitlist?

I believe they don't take further questions about your waitlist status other than top/middle/low (I could be wrong so someone please confirm) but there is talk that tiers don't matter in terms of chances of getting off the waitlist. Although it is technically based on their "scoring," if someone who got accepted rejects their offer then they will take someone off the waitlist that has similar stats/demographics regardless of their tier is what i heard from past threads (could be wrong again lol).

Thank you! If that is the case, I will definitely reach out about that. And hopefully some waitlist movement starts to take place next month.

Congrats me too but I havent been able to get through to schedule. Were you able to? I know we cant leave voicemails. Im wondering if I could call a different number?
I was able to schedule, I'm sorry that happened to you. I would probably just wait a bit and try again. If it still doesn't work then email for sure. Congrats as well!

+1 WL OOS, interview 1/28. They do specifically state in the email not to reach out to admissions regarding waitlist status.
Ya but u can ask about what tier u are! They told me like what tier as in top, middle, bottom but thats all the info you can request!
 
Also someone said on here u could ask for ur tier on the waitlist, and they emailed me my tier when I asked but reading back my WL email, they said we no longer discuss individual tier statuses so I’m like dang I didn’t ruin my shot right 🙃😭
 
Does anyone know if there are still seats available or if the class if full ? My interview is next week, and I just want to know if its basically for the WL or not ?

If they are still interviewing they are still interested- so go in with the attitude it’s a real chance for admission
 
Hello everyone (this is an official EVMS account), and we just wanted to clear up inquiring about waitlist status: EVMS Admissions has discontinued sharing with applicants their tier status because it does not accurately reflect the nuance that goes into waitlist movement. So please do not reach out to admissions about that because they will be unable to share. However, you are still highly encouraged to send update letters. Best of luck to everyone!

Thank you for the clarification. I suppose there was a little bit of confusion regarding this matter. Do you know if it will affect applicants who did reach out due to the confusion?

Don't worry, Admissions has confirmed that reaching out has no bearing on candidacy--calls are not logged like that and they understand this is a new change!

Oh, good to hear and thanks for the info! I heard somewhere that your tier level doesn’t matter (it’s been mentioned in this thread previously), how true is that?

An account on here ran by current medical students at the school said they don’t want people reaching out about tiers no more either. Just letting you know it’s recent in the thread. ( In case you didn’t read that part)
