Same tbh more leaning on ThursdayWhen are y'alls guesses for the decisions this week? Idk why but Im feeling tuesday or thursday
Yes.If yall sent a letter of intent, did you just send it to the admissions email?
Nada for me yet!Has anyone heard anything yet? I really hope we hear news soon and I'm so excited for everyone ❤️
Agreed. I think we've waited long enough tbhThe uncertainty this week makes me feel awful, I hope it’s sooner rather than later
Nothing yet...Any luck anyone?
So you posted to tell folks about an event they weren’t invited to and then finished with “Hang in there!” Exclamation point an all? That’s wild.There was an event last Friday at the Savannah campus for Accepted Students. Events in Macon and Columbus are coming soon.
Hang in there!

Not triggered lols Knowing you haven’t been accepted changes the tone of your post. But reread it again pretend you didn’t know that. That’s some wild ish.Yep. I wasn’t invited either but obviously it didn’t trigger me as much as it did you.
Just curious how you all know anything is happening this week?Guys news coming either today or tomorrow. I have waited enough, just give me the news already whatever it is haha.
This waiting game is so painful fr.
Because on the portal and in their emails they said we would hear back by March 30thJust curious how you all know anything is happening this week?
Ah I see, thanks. Well good luck then everybody!Because on the portal and in their emails they said we would hear back by March 30th
I got deferred from ED in September and I have been praying ever since😂 the waiting game really is brutal hahaGuys news coming either today or tomorrow. I have waited enough, just give me the news already whatever it is haha.

I am in the same boat haha. Been praying and staying hopeful ever since. It’s been more than 1000 days now that I submitted my first application to med school and been waiting since then. Patience is wearing very thin but still holding on to the faith in god that he will pay off my hardwork in some way. Just keep ur heads up no matter the outcome this week guys.I got deferred from ED in September and I have been praying ever since😂 the waiting game really is brutal haha
Faith is key! No matter what—we deserve to be doctors. One thing I’ve had to realize is that it may not be on our timeline, but it will happen! Anyway, good luck to you, me and everyone else. We are getting that call!I am in the same boat haha. Been praying and staying hopeful ever since.

My whole first cycle has been learning this lesson and it's reassuring to know even if something does not happen the first time, you can keep pushing and get it eventually! Best of luck to everyone, we have all worked to hard to get here and that alone is something to celebrate!Faith is key! No matter what—we deserve to be doctors. One thing I’ve had to realize is that it may not be on our timeline, but it will happen! Anyway, good luck to you, me and everyone else. We are getting that call!
I was wondering the same. So seems like it.I have a quick question. Do yall see where it says "For those that are neither extended an offer of acceptance nor explicitly invited to be on the Wait List by March 30, 2024, the likelihood of acceptance this cycle is quite low. For those not accepted earlier in the cycle, it may be the first week of August 2023 before notification on a final decision is communicated by e-mail. We encourage applicants in this category to work toward strengthening their application and reapplying if appropriate. " Does this mean mercer does a silent rejection kinda? I'm trying to wrap my frizzled brain around it
Glad it's not just confusing me me, here's to hoping for a solid decision this week. But for now, another nerve-wracking evening waiting for an emailI was wondering the same. So seems like it.

Are you still allowed to apply for the upcoming cycle while being on the waitlist for the previous cycle?My thoughts...
1) "For those that are neither extended an offer of acceptance nor explicitly invited to be on the Wait List by March 30, 2024, the likelihood of acceptance this cycle is quite low."
It's telling folks who have not received a notification that they are on the Waist List by March 30th that a rejection is forthcoming. From the previous year's threads, it doesn't seem like Mercer does "silent rejections."
2) "For those not accepted earlier in the cycle, it may be the first week of August 2023 before notification on a final decision is communicated by e-mail."
This is for folks who make it to the Wait List. MUSOM has been known to extend offers to folks on the Wait List up to the Saturday before orientation. They likely won't let folks know the class list is full and send out rejections to folks on the Wait List until orientation starts (ala, August 2024). Because of this, they are trying to encourage everyone on the Wait List with no other acceptance to start preparing their application for the next cycle.
It seems like the only additional information folks on the Wait List might get is a rough number of how many people are on the Wait List. At that point, MUSOM has given us all the information they are going to and we all have to make decisions about what is next.
I would very much like to stay on the Wait List until the very end, hoping I get that call. However, after thinking it through and talking about it with my partner, if I am so fortunate to make it to the Wait List, I would likely withdraw form the Wait List in the first week of June after the "Commit To Enroll" deadlines have passed and any significant Wait List movement is over.
Yes u can def apply.Are you still allowed to apply for the upcoming cycle while being on the waitlist for the previous cycle?
I haven’t received anything yet but the second I do I’ll let this forum know hahaYes u can def apply.
Also no one got on the waitlist yet right like they haven’t send out the waitlist email either right!
Yes. They encourage you to reapply even while you’re on the Wait List.Are you still allowed to apply for the upcoming cycle while being on the waitlist for the previous cycle?
Seconded!I haven’t received anything yet but the second I do I’ll let this forum know haha
The MUSOM student handbook shows they do celebrate Good Friday on March 29th. I assume they will send out notifications tonight after close of business to avoid a ton of calls and communications from anxious premeds.today is the day fellas, they have to send today some news as tomorrow they are off due to Good Friday I think. Good luck everyone. Post here no matter the outcome. We are here to support you through this.
That is what I'm thinking, I'm guessing anywhere from like 4-6pmish.The MUSOM student handbook shows they do celebrate Good Friday on March 29th. I assume they will send out notifications tonight after close of business to avoid a ton of calls and communications from anxious premeds.
