The Republic of Texas XXXVI: You may all go to hell, and I will go to a Texas medical school

[wysdoc]

Members don't see this ad.

Format is solid, I believe there was also an offer from Texas A&M to a non-SDN’r

could be, but I try not to post friend-of-a-friend reports as I can't verify, or they may be duplicates of what I see on SDN

I will try to stick to the new format for easy scanning even though I love to be verbose 🙄😳
I had a suggestion to clump them more by school so I will do that too next time.

 

[Big Papa C]

Can confirm. They posted on the FB page that they got in to A&M off the waitlist

 

[llamaman]

Wow there is way less movement post May 1st than I expected T.T

 

[wysdoc]

Texas Roundup 5/10 (starring bull rider Ty Murray)
5/? Texas A&M offer from WL
5/7 Texas A&M offer from WL (IS)
5/4 Baylor offer from WL, applicant deciding between this and Long
5/3 UTSW offer from WL, applicant deciding between this and Long
5/4 UTSW offer from WL (OOS)
5/8 Texas Tech offer from WL (OOS)
5/9 TCOM offer from WL (did TCOM MedSci)
5/9 TCOM offer from WL
5/9 Long offer from WL (IS)
5/9 Long offer from WL (IS)

1 spot relinquished at UTRGV
1 spot relinquished at TCOM
2 spots subject to decisions (see above)

Remember each applicant has many factors to consider including the location, family factors, school curriculum, policies, finances, opportunities, feeling of welcome at a school, etc. Decisions will be made fairly promptly though, so there should be some more action soon.

Just wanted to add that I'm in the TCOM facebook group currently and there were about 8-9 acceptances on Wednesday, all medsci.I will be giving my spot up at TCOM in favor of the offer from Long. Long appears to have given out about 8-10 acceptances in the last 2 days

Would you know if there have been any non medsci acceptances recently?

Is the waitlist movement in texas done now? Looks like there hasnt been news in a while

Kinda seems like it. Baylor's waitlist email said there could be a good amount of movement towards the end of May but I assume the schools are pretty much done by now.

My friend just dropped her Texas tech Lubbock seat today

 

[Polliwanker]

I am sure there will be more waitlist movement in May and beyond (for those with no acceptances) as decisions from the recent acceptances are resolved. We may not see it on SDN, but there's no way that no one else hears.

Texas Roundup 5/17
5/16 McGovern 1 offer from WL (IS)

1 or possibly 2 spots relinquished at TCOM.

Nope it's not over

Keep your boots in the stirrups, we should be picking up speed soon!

 

[wysdoc]

Hey, it's not a cowboy photo. I had to keep y'all entertained.

Texas Roundup 5/22
5/21 TCOM 1 offer from WL
5/21 Baylor 1 offer from WL (IS)

That's it for today.

Relinquished spots: possibly 1 from Long, and whatever other school the Baylor person above had previously

 

[wysdoc]

Texas Roundup 5/25

5/25 Texas Tech 1 offer from WL (IS)
5/25 Long 3 offers from WL (IS)
5/25 Long 1 offer from WL (OOS)

1 spot relinquished at A&M
(of the above IS offers, one person is deciding between Long and Foster,
one between Long and an unspecified other TX school)

 

[microresearcher]

Do you think we are likely to see any more movement before June 1st?

 

[wysdoc]

There will be some more WL action for sure, and since there are a few more weekdays before June 1 chances are good. After June 1, offers of admission can only be made to 1) Texans with no other Texas offers of admission to date, and 2) out of staters.

Thank you for all the support you've given us over the last few months. I already hold an offer from another Texas school but I'm hoping to hear back from another one before June 1st

Texas Roundup 5/28

1 seat relinquished at Long

See y'all tomorrow!

Today my non-SDN friend accepted a wait-list offer from El Paso and will be relinquishing a UTRGV seat.

5/29 UTRGV 1 spot relinquished

 

[wysdoc]

That's all I heard of today. Keep a good attitude, pardners.
Share news if you get it!

 

[wysdoc]

Heck Yeah we're waitin' but we don't have to look happy about it...

Texas Roundup 5/31

5/31 UTMB made a WL (IS) offer but it was declined, applicant stuck with their current school
5/31 UTMB 1 offer from WL (IS) accepted

5/31 Texas Tech 1 seat relinquished

see y'all tomorrow

 

[wysdoc]

Everyone who is getting a WL offer : if you accept it, don't forget to contact the school where you formerly had a spot and send a kind email withdrawing. They don't automatically know what you decide about accepting or not accepting your WL offer.

 

[wysdoc]

@wysdoc Thank you so much for updating this thread and keeping us in the loop!

In your experience, what has the Texas waitlist movement looked like after June 1st?

Just a few offers wrapping things up. Some applicants with interviews but no prior matches get very happy! Also SDN is only a portion of real-life applicants.

 

[wysdoc]

Well heck, I was expecting something a little bigger!
That goes for the last call WL offers today too. Downright puny.

Texas Roundup 6/1

5/31 UTSW offer from WL (IS) happily taken
6/1 UTSW offer from WL declined, they are happy with their prior match
6/1 Long offer from WL (IS) accepted

6/1 UTRGV 1 seat relinquished

Go down to the saloon and have you a sarsaparilla.

 

[Big Papa C]

Gg everyone. It sure was a wild ride

Texas Roundup 6/5

5/31 TCOM 1 offer from WL

5/31 A&M 1 seat relinquished, applicant got in somewhere else hasn't said where?

I still think we might see offers from UTRGV and Texas Tech, but maybe they are just going to non-SDN folks.

 

[wysdoc]

[wysdoc]

Texas Roundup 6/7

[wysdoc]

Texas Roundup 6/8

6/7 UTMB 1 offer from WL
6/7 McGovern 1 offer from WL

one of these was a 1st acceptance and the other was an announcement from a new account created, so only 1 or zero spots will be relinquished over these 2 WL offers.

I've seen no new Texas announcements on SDN since 6/7.

Are ya shy? Have you just decided something? Please share here or on your specific school thread 2017-2018.
I am going to keep posting things here for about another 2 weeks and then will probably close off this thread and mosey over to the Texas thread for our next application year here: The Republic of Texas XXXVII: Get up. Look up. Show up. Never Give up.
