Hi everyone,
Did anyone from the waitlist received an update on their status? They were suppose to mail us an update on Friday May 18th, but I haven't received anything as of today. Just wondering if anyone heard from them yet.
Thanks

No, not yet. I got the email tho. Maybe tomorrow. 🙂
 
I got an email today saying that they mailed an update on May 21st....so it should be here in a few days.
 
In the case that you can't wait for your letter to arrive: from what I can tell of the class, I think a couple of people have gotten off the waitlist within the past week. This is including someone who was #2. So hopefully you'll have moved up two or so spots! Good luck :luck:

wow that's great news. Do you know someone who got off or is it something you heard about?
 
If this helps anybody I was #24 on the waitlist but I am going to SC. I didn't send in all of my transcripts to UCSF so they may have already dropped me from the list but I am not sure since I did receive the e-mail a couple days ago
 
So they are suppose to mail us another update this Friday. Did anybody ever ask them how many students they accepted last year? Not the range they usually give (2-40 or something like that) but the exact number of students they took off the waitlist last year.

I think I remember hearing they took 12 off the waitlist last year. But they said they've taken as few as 2 and as many as 24. I could be hallucinating though (since I'm trying to remember back to Feb when I interviewed), but the number 12 sticks out in my mind for some reason.
