Wow why haven't I found the thread sooner!? Currently waitlisted at 2 schools. Waiting to hear back from 2 more (no interview) but I'm pretty sure they're gonna be rejections since it pretty late in the cycle.

Any OOS on IU's waitlist? Does anyone know if they end up going through most of their waitlist at all?

I was accepted off the waitlist yesterday from Temple (second time applying)! There's still hope everyone. Keep your heads up!
Congrats!
Been on the waitlist at university of Detroit Mercy Dental...still hoping for a spot
How’s everyone else doing? I’m still waitlisted at 6 schools
Still waitlisted at 5 schools. I sure hope April is our month. If not, I'll have to start working on the new application in May and I really don't want to! 
This month I got off the wait list at one school, so I at least have an option, but I am still wait listed at the school I really want to go to.

I know; I’m still waitlisted at my first choice and I don’t feel like starting this app again.Still waitlisted at 5 schools. I sure hope April is our month. If not, I'll have to start working on the new application in May and I really don't want to!
Do you at least have any acceptances? You should have only applied to schools which you would be willing to go to if you only had one acceptance.
Still waitlisted at my first choice and the only interview I had
Well, we still got 20 more days left in April. Hopefully we all get in somewhere.
Does that mean if you do not hear back before May then you’re officially out?
Sorry let me clarify; the only school I got waitlisted at was my first choice. Other schools I applied to I’m either rejected or waiting to be rejected at this point.
No, but the chances of receiving an offer gets progressively worse with each passing week. I'd imagine most programs being full by May. Hell, they're probably pretty much full right now.

No, that’s when I’ll have to start getting ready to reapply. I may get picked up afterwards, but like @California Patriot said, chances get slimmer each week. Hope for the best, prepare for the worst.
I heard something like if you submit for next cycle and do end up getting in this cycle, AADSAS will refund your money if you request it.
I've officially been rejected from every school I've applied to besides the one I'm waitlisted it [emoji45]
Which one are you waitlisted at?

Where did you hear this?
Refunding/Withdrawing Your ADEA AADSAS Application
Review ADEA AADSAS's refund policy, withdrawal information, and how to reinstate your application after a credit card chargeback.

CONGRATS! About time we started seeing some good news in this thread.
Thank you!!
I hope you receive some good news soon!! Rooting for you in the darkness haha
LOL thank you! Maybe this'll be the week!
Waitlisted at LSU. Hoping for a miracle at this point
Just got accepted at my number 1 school; university of Detroit mercy. There is hope guys I applied so late; application went through on 11/14 so anything is possible.
CONGRATS!
I'm right there with you. Hold on for a few more weeks. It's still not over. We'll worry about reapplying sometime in May. Good luck.
Thanks, Good luck to you too!
Keep in mind if you do reapply for next cycle, then end up with somewhere to go from this cycle, you can ask AADSAS for a refund within 2 weeks of getting the acceptance.

Don't lose hope, I had 2 of my buddies get in off waitlists in the last few weeks.
Is it me or do waitlist not seem to be moving this cycle?

Definitely getting that vibe lol. The school I am waitlisted at has had no movement, and the schools I applied to (which I am following) has not had any movement either...
posting activity on SDN has dropped a bunch in the last year
compare the thread sizes on the acceptance thread year to year and you will see
DAT bootcamp FB page has taken up a lot of the activity
Hey guys. Keep calling and emailing the schools. Squeaky wheel gets the oil 😉
Good luck!
Good luck!
Hey guys. Hope you don't mind if I join the waitlist family.

Are any of you guys waitlisted at Indiana? I haven't contacted them because of their email they sent right after they sent all the waitlists. What do you think would be the best approach for indy?
