OOS waitlist for MD and PURCH! Interviewed in December

 

[massachussetts123]

when you get WL, do they send you an email? or have you just been checking your portal

 

[tennisfan72]

got an email!

 

[tennisfan72]

Did anyone get an email confirming they accepted their waitlist position? My icon switched to withdraw from waitlist after I accepted my waitlist so just wanted to double check

 

[llk20]

is anyone else still waiting for an email?

[llk20]

If anyone emails and asks when we can expect a response, let me know… I thought per guidelines they must notify by May 1

 

[lynn778]

I’m guessing that’s it? I figured today was the last wave of A/WL

 

[llk20]

I’m guessing that’s it? I figured today was the last wave of A/WL

should we call and ask ?

 

[PreMedBot]

There is still plenty of time today. Based on the wave of decisions at this time last year it seems like they will send out more decisions today. I personally would not call because I think that would annoy them, but thats just me.

 

[lynn778]

Sending prayers and positive vibes to everyone

After all that they've chosen to "annoy" me since Sept, I could think of worse ways to spend my time 💁‍♀️

 

[llk20]

There’s only a few more days to wait it out before the 5/1 deadline

do they have to oblige by the 5/1 deadline?

 

[hocus_bolus]

could today be the day?

 

[volecowboy]

could today be the day?

i hope so

 

[Disappointed Idealist]

Mine looks the same as well

I emailed them and they said application was still under consideration. Seems weird though 🤷‍♂️

 

[icedcoldtea]

Today’s the last Friday in April before the plan to enroll deadline on AAMC and still nothing since my Jan interview. I lost hope and see this as a rejection, it just sucks that they’re holding people on until the last moment.

I'm feeling the same way, feeling pretty defeated tonight. hang in there <3

 

[Bowel-Plumber]

Mind boggling how it’s April 28th and I still heard absolutely nothing since my November interview

Super classy move from a super classy school.

But people will still find a way to defend them.

Next year’s cycle is going to have a fun time reading this thread. I can’t imagine someone defending such an admission process

 

[volecowboy]

so if we haven't heard anything yet should we assume it's WL or R?

 

[Bowel-Plumber]

so if we haven't heard anything yet should we assume it's WL or R?

For all we know it could be anything between an A to a WL to an R to a million dollar lottery ticket

 

[llk20]

i emailed last week asking for an update to my application— no response…

 

[ApplicantWishMeLuck]

Portal down for anyone else?

 

[PreMedBot]

Portal down for anyone else?

[volecowboy]

What does this mean?

 

[ApplicantWishMeLuck]

[cwpl]

[frustrationstation]

[docdoc3000]

[jang_gyuri_stan]

What does this mean?

an R... Which I just received! Interviewed 3/12

 

[tiredpremed777]

instate R interview 3/12

 

[ApplicantWishMeLuck]

Anyone suprised with their decision?

I believe that I was a very strong applicant. 52X MCAT, high GPA, very strong ECs, LORs, high preview, excellent writing, and good interview skills.

I had an excellent cycle and got a lot of love from a lot of schools.

But, UMass is my state school. At the start of the cycle I told myself that even if I strike out everywhere else, I can count on UMass to have my back. Boy was I wrong.

I am honestly suprised that I didn't get into my state school as a resident of this state who was born here and never left. The same is true for a lot of other strong applicants that got rejected.

I do know several other residents who blatantly had much weaker applications. They all got in. The common denominator for the 4 applicants I know who got it is that their fathers are all physicians. I find that really interesting.

I am in the same exact boat …

 

[volecowboy]

[PreMedBot]

+1 instate R. Good luck to everyone remaining. I can finally reclaim my sanity by unsubscribing from this thread.

 

[volecowboy]

Feb interview. IS R. I rocked my MMI.

I am dropping all negativity associated with this school so I can focus on being excited to be a doctor at a school that wants me.
