Haha fair just best to assume it's over and be pleasantly surprised if good news comes our way

 

[DrDolittle67]

I think their last day for interviews is 2/24.

 

[pemingtons]

Does UCSD call or email first if you get accepted?

 

[DoNotDryClean]

MSTP A reported on CycleTracker and an A reported on admit.org this morning!!

 

[pemingtons]

Any traditional MD As today?

 

[DoNotDryClean]

Does anyone know if UCSD releases MSTP As all at once or in waves? I saw 3 As reported but haven’t heard anything post-I

Did they announce this

Not sure… I received a call on Friday around 1pm and an email on Tuesday. They didn’t give any indication of how decisions would roll out, but I interviewed Jan 28-29 if that helps!

Edit: this is for MSTP

 

[shakingcryingthrowingup]

Does anyone know when we can expect to hear financial aid information? Do need-based and merit aid come out before major deadlines (e.g. April 15th)?

I think I remember them saying it will release March, because they know it's something we need to consider to choose....but I'm not 100% sure on that

 

[decrepit2023]

They told us at interview day

 

[next_md]

Hey y'all. I interviewed pretty early here and have been on the WL ever since. I know the chances of getting off the WL are very low however I am wondering if updates/LOI sent in April can help??

 

[WoolCamber851]

Hello, does anyone have any information on Post-II decisions? I interviewed in January and they told us decisions would come mid-Feb to early-March but still radio silence.

ETA: Main motivation for asking is that their second look weekend is now less than four weeks away and plane ticket prices to San Diego are not cheap 🙁

You should’ve been told a date, and it is likely also on your post-II email from the admissions office.

Hi, thanks for the reply! I should have specified, I was an MSTP applicant so they never gave us a specific date for when decisions would be released.

it’s not over til it’s over! does anyone know what waitlist movement looks like at ucsd? Also what does unranked waitlist mean?

+1 IS WL. They accept 10-15% of a pretty huge waitlist, unfortunately odds aren’t great. Unranked means they don’t put applicants in order of likelihood of getting pulled off (at least publicly).

 

[TrendyKibbles]

+ 1 IS WL 🙁

 

[randal'thor]

Hi, sorry if this has been asked before but for admitted applicants, I'm wondering what the Commit To Enroll (CTE) date is for UCSD? I was waitlisted back in December but just trying to plan which waitlists I should stay on. Can't find the info elsewhere.

 

[motorproteina]

+1 IS A! Interviewed 2/24

 

[PsychicPsych]

Hey, I was interviewed Jan 15th for MSTP, but I opted to MD-only at UCSD since I didn't get in. They asked me to make that decision by March 4th ish, and I let them know around Feb 28th. Do any MD/PhD->MD applicants get any response from UCSD yet? Or does anyone know about when the result might be out?

 

[SurvivingPremedd]

Hi everyone,
I was wondering if anyone has received scholarship offers from UCSD yet? I’m not sure if they’ve started sending them out.

 

[erwinsmith]

Does anyone who interviewed in February see the UCSD alternate list in their CYMS tool?

 

[b0ldlygo]

Has anyone on the waitlist received an email about submitted update letters/letters of interest? The portal says we should upload them in May but the initial waitlist email said we should hear from them in April about sending documents

I am currently on the WL, but have not heard anything in regard to update requests yet. I did notice something interesting though in my AMP portal the waitlist tab on the left hand side is no longer there. It was little buggy before and would log you out every time you clicked on it so I assume that they just removed the tab all together for some bug fixes? My AMCAS CYMS tool still states alternate list though. I hope we get some news soon, I am very curious how/when the WL will move.

[pemingtons]

Were any WL applicants invited to second look?

 

[WestCoastMudkip]

No, only accepted students were invited.

 

[cbasco02]

Fellow waitlist warriors! Just received the follow-up email we've been waiting for.

If you are still interested, make sure to accept your position on the waitlist + send any updates on AMP!

 

[cbasco02]

Definitely hurts... But we keep on keeping on. Best of luck to everyone else!

 

[David79]

Is this forum primarily for discussion around applying? The description sounds like it's for more than that but the posts I've read suggest it's mainly an applicant discussion board.

I'm a former student, trying to find a current student who has not yet settled on their required research project...and... is interested in Alternative Medicine. Grateful if there is a better spot than this to join a discussion if someone can let me know.

Thank you!
