I know there has probably been 300 questions like this, but should I be worried? I interviewed on on 9/22 and have not heard anything back from Wayne State. I had assumed that Wayne usually gets back to students within a month or so based on what some of my friends told me. Am I wrong and should I just relax or what?

Sir this is a Wendys

This is the Michigan thread

Well, at least there hasn't been 300 questions like that. 🙂

Saw Director Teener yesterday and she told me they’re purposely not sending any interviews to SDN users, only admit.org

Guys I have my interview coming up on the 20th and I’m so anxious I literally feel like I could throw up any given moment I. I mean this is such an amazing problem to have, I couldn’t be more grateful, but wow it’s so stressful to have your dream school give you a shot!!! I’m worried I will choke in the interview lol. Any tips for coping??

I'm very envious. Keep in mind their post II offer rate is so high. Just be a normal, honest person and I'm guessing you'll be fine.

UMich was honestly my favorite interview of this cycle. Everyone was so kind and really did their best to try and calm nerves. Be yourself and it’s cliche, but remember a smile can go a long way.

I didn't realize that Michigan had a tracker on their website but just saw it on another SDN thread.

So looking at it right now it shows they have had 11,159 applicants this year with 341 interviews scheduled to date and 50 admission offers made.

MSARS shows that for the Y2024 cycle they had 9338 applicants, they interviewed 443 and had 171 matriculants.

• 1821 more applicants is a 19.5% increase in just 2 years! Crazy.
• They're already close to their total interviews back then. Assuming they also interview roughly 20% more applicants, that would mean they still have 189 more interviews to go.
• Making a wild guess of 70% yield rate, that would mean they made 244 offers back then to get their 171 matriculants. That would have been a 55% post-II -> A rate. Assuming the same 244 offers now but 530 interviews, it would drop that rate to 46%.

Anyway, I'm sure I have some math wrong somewhere but the basic idea is there is still a chance but it's harder than ever.

Michigan publishes a 5 year snap shot of their data which has their full number of interviews and acceptances given which is close to 75-80% II->A

II received Monday, LM 73, ORM, TX resident

 

[randomcharacter]

Any word on whether they sent out the list of accepted students to their med students?

 

[zangoose]

y'all think us deferred applicants might here something tomorrow?

 

[Pallas]

Any word on whether they sent out the list of accepted students to their med students?

No -- I believe this isn't released to the student body until after the applicants themselves get the admissions decisions.

 

[hahaboba]

Please let these R waves skip us

Imma so close to buying out Etsy witches for a day for this II.

 

[randomcharacter]

No -- I believe this isn't released to the student body until after the applicants themselves get the admissions decisions.

Interesting, I’ve heard that they tell their student body beforehand (1-2 days) to give them a chance to surprise a friend before sending out decisions.

I heard this, too, but I checked with a current student today and he told me exactly what I shared. They are an M1 so maybe it's diff for them.

 

[hellomango]

OOS A!

 

[orangecat33]

Deferred 🙁 did anyone who was deferred last round hear back this time?

 

[Punkchique]

IS A!!!! I’m so grateful!

 

[pyrosome]

OOS A!

 

[howyalldoin]

OOS A!

 

[zangoose]

Congrats to everyone admitted! Was anyone a deferred applicant from last month?

 

[anonstrawberry]

Does anyone know stats on deferred applicants? Like how likely you are to hear before March and/or be accepted after?

 

[CurledAlarmist]

no one knows. From what I have seen, most get put on the WL and movement for that starts in mid may if there is any at all. There have been years with 0 movement and a year where they overenrolled so there is no guarantee of anything. I know a handful of people at Mich and none know of someone who was deferred then accepted (w/o being put on the WL) but that doesn't mean there aren't any nor does it mean it is impossible. I would focus on sending an update and waiting for WL movement. Previous years, I saw that deferred people were almost all put on the WL on March 21.
