MWG and/or Creighton web-based

I am currently going crazy wondering what these two schools are doing with their alternates and when. I just got an email from Creighton saying that they will be looking at their alternates in early May and then we will get another letter with their decision. Glendale tells me end of April at the earliest will be when they will be contacting any alternates, if any are needed.

If anyone has any other knowledge, like how many have been accepted and some of their criteria, I would be grateful if you replied. I've heard that Glendale is raising the amount of students from 130 to 140+

With all of this said, my mindset is that I will not get accepted and have been getting ready to retake the PCAT.

I am on the alternate list for creighton's web-based program but since I got into my first choice, I will be giving up my spot. Hopefully this will leave a spot for you. If not, then good luck with reapplying.

I highly doubt that MWU-CPG will increase enrollment. On one of the first days of school (almost 2 years ago), the faculty commented "Yours is a large class, but this is the largest they will be for a long time" or something to that effect.

Unlike some of the newer schools, we do have labs and our own campus, lecture halls, computer labs, small group rooms, etc. I think that we're pretty much "at capacity" at 130. You have to take into account physical facility size, as well as things like grading time turn-around, clinical sites, faculty, faculty rotation sites, etc.

I know that there were people accepted from the alternate list 2 years ago, but I don't know about last year (I would assume so).
