would you get dropped from baylor's waitlist if this is the case? i'm hoping not since they're not a tmdsas school...
 
I searched Lotrell, Lut, Lat etc on the UTSW campus email system. I didnt come up with anything. The closest I could find was someone in the allied school of health.

Yes, but Baylor is also located in the state of Texas

It seems from the above document, schools can technically still offer position to applicants already accepted to another Texas school after June 15th; they just need "permission" from the school where the applicant currently holds his or her acceptance.

she works in registrar?

I believe so, and I'm 99.99% sure she is the LaTrelle everyone is referring to in previous posts.
 
Thanks everybody! I'm just glad I can be a doctor.
 
I don't know if it got posted here, but someone posted in the UTH class forum that they got in off the waitlist yesterday I believe

Congrats to yall who recently got accepted!!!

I was expecting a much larger turn over after june 5th.

And definately expecting an email back from wes norred, or whoever took over his spot since he expected to send us one 3rd week of may.

My cousin got the call from UTH yesterday. He wasn't in anywhere so we're all excited.

Yourmom, every time I see your posted I jump a little hoping you've made it to TAMU. I'm still pulling for you!

so far it feels like waitlist movement has been trickling... i can't wait until it gets unclogged..if it ever does .. sigh.

Why june 5??

Someone said June 4 was the day that people accepted to UTSW earlier (May 20s ish) had to decide whether to take the acceptance or not.

Ah, I got ya.. maybe there is some lag time? We can only wait and see I guess. Maybe they were/are waiting after June 15th in addition to that date so they can look at a more condensed WL? Just a guess, but that also might take away students who they want to attend, but are knocked off the WL due to acceptances at other schools...?? (this is just specualtion on my part)
 
I don't understand why UTSW would be waiting till after June 15th for the second bunch of acceptances... I guess there is some movement from Baylor but none from UTSW... 🙁

I doubt they are waiting till after june 15th. Doesn't make sense, I think they'd take whoever they want regardless of whatever other acceptances they have.

My guess is that their class is full at the moment, and no one has decided to decline. Even if they do, at this point, it's not going to be in waves, probably just one or two every now and then. And those people may not even be on SDN, or just lurking.

Most likely, but hopefully not the case

Was anyone following WL acceptances from last year? Was there a certain date that there was more movement around the same June 15 deadline?
 
Yeah, that thread isn't very reassuring; I'm assuming that the bulk of the mov't has already occurred, and anything from here on out will just be here and there.
 
well last year also didn't have the prematch acceptance in place. so the thread from last year may not be indicative of this year. at least that's what i tell myself lol.
 
it's over.

every one cash in your chips. good game. its last call at the bar. semisonic is already into the second verse.
 
****. sorry ER.

lol that was supposed to be the worse form of "shoot" but i forgot SDN censors language.
 
Do ya'll follow up with anyone in the admission office (besides the secretary) at the schools you are waitlisted at? If so, how often?
 
I somewhat tried a follow-up by scheduling an appointment with the secretary to talk with Dr. Kellaway once I found out I was waitlisted. I don't know how productive that meeting went, as I didn't expect it to be the second interview that it felt like. So I was unprepared and caught offguard by her more serious questions.

I just signed up to SDN to ask about why my Last Master File Update would have changed recently (today actually), but still no word...

The last time it changed was 3.7.07, two days after I got my letter that I was on the alternate list. Could I possibly be taken off the alternate list? I've felt a little anxious all day...Expect the worst but hope for the best, right?
 
yeah my LMFU changed again... but its probably not a good thing.. (last file checks on old apps probably)

fuuuudgggggge
 
Last week my LMFU was 06/01/07. Today its 06/11/07.
Time will tell...
