Midwestern 2024-2025 (c/o 2029 hopefuls)

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Please does any one know if any one has moved from the alternate waitlist (from after an interview) this cycle yet? I was placed and i know it says not ranked or whatever but I don’t know if i should be looking into this other school and paying the fee when midwestern would be my number 1
The best advice I can give you is the deadline to pay the deposit for the school you are accepted at is 4/15. So, you really don't need to pay any deposits until then if you are still holding out hope for Midwestern. However, if it is close to the deadline I would recommend you pay the deposit for the other school. There is no guarantee for getting into Midwestern from the waitlist after 4/15. So it's just best to take the one acceptance you have rather than risking ending up with no seat come August. Good luck though. I hope you get in where you want to go.

Anyones portal still says awaiting decision? I was told they still haven’t made a decision yet and end of cycle just happened and I should be receiving an email soon. Is anyone else in the same boat?
I have also not heard anything and my status says awaiting decision.
 
Anyone still have an awaiting decision status on their portal? I feel like they have to send all decisions out soon because April 14th is the deadline.

Yep still waiting but not really expecting anything at this point
 
Does anyone know how Midwestern goes about ranking the people the waitlist? Do they even rank and do you see it moving a lot? Any helpful insight would be great! Thank you!
 
Does anyone know if they usually pull off the waitlist or interview waitlist by the national decision date? So April 15??
 
I have declined my acceptance from MWU - hoping it goes to one of you lovely waitlisted people!!! Best of luck to you all!

My admissions portals just updated with more tabs, like financial aid and student services. My status still says awaiting decision. Did everyone's portal update that way? Also, are they still making decisions? I emailed them over a week ago and have gotten no response. I feel like it is rude if they never give me a decision, even if it most likely is a rejection.

My portal updated as well to include financial aid and student services, but my status hasn't changed. Mine is decided though as an alternate. I'm sorry they haven't updated the decision for you yet. I called them a few months back and I got a response the same day, maybe try calling them on Monday?
 
Just called and they said my portal may be updated tomorrow. What the heck is the unsure part about that! I'm assuming that means rejection because the day to decide where people are going is tomorrow. Also the person who answered the phone seemed like she had not clue. I'm just going to assume it is a "no" and go on with my life.

That’s crazy because I called a couple hours ago and they said they’re done with interviews and I should expect an “end of cycle email” by the end of the month! Like get y’all’s stuff together and stop telling us different things!
 
Honestly I have no idea. It all depends on where you’re ranked on the waitlist. They pull from the waitlist every time someone declines their seat. I think they can pull off the waitlist until a week before classes start. I’m just not sure how to find out the ranking of the waitlist.
I was told they don’t pull off the waitlist as people decline their seat. There is no ranks. They will reevaluate the list after they see who declined and who accepted. This is what I’ve been told but again, anything can happen.
 
I accepted my seat and am looking for a roommate to get a 2/2 apt with! Message me if interested 🙂
 
Has anyone seen any waitlist movement? Also, did they ever send the end of cycle email??

No I haven’t seen any movement and haven’t heard of anyone getting pulled off the waitlist yet. I wish we could know what our ranking was. What is the end of cycle email?
 
How many people do yall think are on the waitlist?
They waitlist just about everyone they interview, unless you do something absolutely atrocious. I think there were 30 people per interview with maybe around 10 interview periods, so that's about 300 people interviewed (very rough estimate, maybe more, maybe less). AAVMC says they have 130 seats for each class, so that's potentially 170 waitlist spots (those who interviewed but weren't initially admitted). However, this year they randomly decided to admit some people without interviewing with no warning whatsoever, I'm going to guess around 30 people (but I have no idea), so that's fewer people who were accepted after interview. With that, I would say there are at least 200 people on the waitlist.
