Please post here what schools you turned down so those applicants who are in un-"steady state" may know what to expect somehow. 🙂

For the waitlisted and deferred applicants, please list the schools which made your future seem blurry. 😀
 
I turned down acceptances at U Maryland and USC, and turned down an alternate spot at UCSD.
 
Wait listed at MCPHS-Worcester and on hold at Shenandoah.... neither of which I care about!🙂
 
Turned down acceptance at Midwestern Glendale and waitlisted at UIC
 
Turned down:
Palm Beach Atlantic
Albany

Will be turning down in the next few days:
Purdue (people were sooooo nice but too cold in Indiana)
either UF or UCSF

Hope that helps. Good luck to all.

oh, same here, same here..When was yr interviews??? I was interviewed at both schools early Jan??? do they tell you anything more?? When I contacted them, the answer i got is "yr status is you're on alternate list, that's ALL we can tell you..."... But I got in NOVA, so less worries..... 🙂
 
I've already turned down U of Iowa and Midwestern-Glendale, I'm declining U of Colorado this week, and probably declining Oregon State eventually (once I make my final decision, hopefully this week)
 
I've turned down spots at Midwestern-Downer's Grove, University of Oklahoma (Tulsa campus), and Northeastern's Accelerated Program. I have also paid my deposit at UNC but will be turning that down as soon as my 1st choice school cashes my deposit for their school. Good luck to everyone waiting... Hopefully it will all turn out great in the end :luck:

My interviews were at Feb (Downers Grove) and March (Glendale). Nope, they did not tell me anything more other than the letters they sent me that told me I was on the alternative lists. I don't like additional waiting so grrr... I thought I would get rejected from Glendale but I didn't, lol. Well, it seemed like there are quite a few people turned down the acceptance to both schools. I guess it's yay for us? 😀 You are lucky to get into Nova! Congrats! 👍
 
Waitlisted at USP, and Im kinda happy, because they don't accept too many transfers, and Im outta state, so I happy they even looked at my application 🙂 makes no sense, but Im happy 🙂
 
I just got waitlisted for USP too 🙁 I applied as a transfer from out-of-state, so I'm glad to see the above comment, made me feel better 🙄 I've never visited the USP campus, so I'm not even sure where that school is. I only applied because it had a good rep and I had all the credientials. But still, being waitlisted makes me a bit sad....
