Accepted as well, still waiting to hear back from a few others but so nice to have a guarantee!
you can call and ask for your status. I interviewed on 3/18 and got the news by stopping by the office (i'm a master student at MWU) but i haven't received any thing via email or mailInterviewed 3/14 but I haven't heard from CCOM via email nor USPS. Really hope to get in, definitely my top choice

Sorry to hear that. Make sure that you send some update letters though. They love themReceived alternate list placement via snail mail today, interviewed 04/07. My only interview too so I'm pretty bummed. Called about waitlist stats and they told me they don't even track that stuff so I'm all out of numbers to crunch :/
I know of people getting in the week before the program starts when wait listed. If I am wait listed and don't get in what are my chances if I reapply for the following year?Sorry to hear that. Make sure that you send some update letters though. They love them
Yeah, that does happen. I think we had someone who joined pretty late like that. I was in your shoes last year. I was accepted off the waitlist near the end of May.I know of people getting in the week before the program starts when wait listed.

Thanks. I interviewed late but not giving up. I want thisYeah, that does happen. I think we had someone who joined pretty late like that. I was in your shoes last year. I was accepted off the waitlist near the end of May.
If you got an interview and they didn't reject you afterwards, it means that they want you. It's just that spaces are limited unfortunately. I'm not sure if being waitlisted this year would improve your chances of getting in next year or not, but it definitely wouldn't hurt. I think it'd show persistence
Has anyone been accepted from the waitlist? If so, when were you accepted.
I know that the waitlist is unranked. How does the committee decide who to accept, if the committee has to choose between student A and student B, how do they decide who to pick.
Does anyone know how the director picks students from the waitlist?The committee doesn't review the waitlist at this school. Only the director of admissions. If you're waitlisted, I suggest contacting him.
Not exactly, but I believe that showing continued interest in CCOM through update letters can helpDoes anyone know how the director picks students from the waitlist?
Congrats!! Did u send any letters of intent?? 32 MCAT?!? Lol what's the secret !!Just heard back! Accepted!! Thanks to everyone who gave up their spots.
I sent in 3 extra letters of rec, a letter of intent and had a 31 MCAT. Thanks!
I AM IN!!!!!!Any body else move on the wait list. I am still hoping to hear.
I am looking to live in Oak Park, its a nice suburb between downers grove and chicago- kind of the best of both worlds without a long commute to either. Anyone interested in splitting a place?
From what I heard, CCOM received thousands of secondaries (close to 8,000 applications this past cycle), so what is considered "quality", imo, varies greatly. Your secondaries should be based on you and your story. Don't tell them what they wanna hear b/c the truth of the matter is, we don't really know what they are looking for. But I can tell for sure is that they wanna know more about you.Working on CCOM Secondaries. In your guys' opinion, could a secondary response be considered "of quality" without mentioning specifically anything about OMM? Given a character limit, tried my best to be concise and my first draft does not make mention of OMM specifically. Perhaps my approach is wrong or is this an area where one can approach with a variety of strategies?

Hi. Sorry for commenting on an old thread, but I was hoping you could tell us how we know for sure the committee is not making the decisions for alternate list applicants? How are we sure it's only the director's call?The committee doesn't review the waitlist at this school. Only the director of admissions. If you're waitlisted, I suggest contacting him.
