AAMC Admissions Report for Adcoms - February release

[3toedsloth]

I've heard some murmurings about a report that goes out to MD Adcoms in February about acceptances.

I apologize if these questions have been answered previously, but some things are unclear. I'd appreciate if you all can share what you know or if you can point me in the right direction to find answers, as my search didn't fully answer my questions.

A few things that I would like to know about this report include:

• What exactly do the Adcoms see, and under what conditions?
• Can all schools I applied to (including those where I have not interviewed, where I am waitlisted, or where the answer is still TBD) see my information?
• How is this information used by Adcoms/why is the report made?
  
• Can schools I have been accepted see acceptances I have declined/which I am holding?
• Can they see where I have been waitlisted or invited to interview?

Thanks guys

IIRC:

In the feb report, they are told where else their admits are accepted. They are not told anything about their waitlisted, interviewed, or rejected candidates, only about their admitted candidates. They also are not told about their admit's interviews, waitlists or rejects elsewhere, only about where else has accepted them.

I think the purpose is to help make plans about yield and/or recruitment. If you're state school XYZ and see that one of your admits is also accepted at Stanford, might change how likely you think they are to attend.

We never see where you applied, were interviewed or were waitlisted.

Cool. Can you see if other acceptances have been held/declined?

We can see acceptances in real time in the spring AMCAS report. When they disappear, we can presume they were declined.

If we have already declined an acceptance, does that acceptance still show up?

Does this report include TMDSAS and AMCAS schools?
Say I’m accepted at a school that uses TMDSAS, and one that uses AMCAS. Do they both still get a report?

The AMCAS report updates every work day (though schools and applicants don't always do the same).

Sorry, I meant if we have declined prior to this February release date.

Only currently held acceptances are visible on the day the report is accessed.

When in Feb does this report get released?

 

[Seikuken]

Do schools see where their waitlisted candidates were accepted in either the Feb report or the spring report?

@gonnif @gyngyn

Thanks for the replies.

Do you mind sharing: in what ways do you use the information from this report?
