Hi everyone! I'm new and this post may be a little too late, but I have a question about the waitlist process.
I was accepted to a medical school that starts on July 6th and I've already made the arrangements to attend. However, I'm on the waitlist for my top choice and they've said repeatedly that they could possibly accept me the day before classes start, which is in mid-August sometime. I don't know if I'm allowed to attend nearly a month of classes while on the alternate list.
So I'm wondering what I should do right now.
Do I:
-ask my current school whether or not I can stay on the waitlist of another school and possibly leave their school mid-semester? (it could possibly be in poor taste to ask such a thing)
-e-mail the dean of admissions at my top school regularly and risk the chance of being a pest?
-rescind my alternate list position at my top school and be happy where I am?
I've asked AMCAS and the e-mail they sent back about the process was uninformative. Please help!
