They have March 4th listed on their website so I'd assume next round of calls gonna go out Feb 29th and March 1st

 

[diabolicalbiologist]

No portal updates, new A’s, or any other activity today??

Odd they list the date as a round of decision releases, but have barely seen any movement

[ellbe_46192]

Did you get a call on thursday/friday?

 

[procrastinating_cheetah]

Did anyone have a portal update for Rs/WLs? I'm curious whether they're sending post-II Rs/WLs at each decision date, or if they are saving them to be released at the end.

I believe historically they release R/WLs in April

Does anyone know if they send confirmation if you upload an update letter to the portal? Do we have to send it anywhere else,

Objectively, your profile picture is the best type of oat milk

 

[Glucose9]

Just to confirm, you won't be able to attend second look if you aren't accepted by the March waves, right?

 

[letsgo2023]

Anyone know how we should upload letters of intent? Portal or email to admissions?

 

[ellbe_46192]

Is anyone else who was accepted last week not having Wash U show up in the Choose Your Medical School tool on AMCAS?

i believe portal

I interviewed late Nov and still haven't heard back. Submitted update letter shortly after interview, and I'm wondering if there would be a point in submitting a LOI now?

Can't hurt since they accept into April. I am in the same boat as you and sent a LOI and update

What do you write in your second LOI/update letter, may I ask? I am not sure what to write now because I already provided all the update in my previous LOI (after interviewed).

 

[wishingoneyelashes]

Out of curiosity, did anyone else interview with Dean Ratts?

Not me but damn thats wild

 

[Present-Row-4056]

I did for the closed-file.

 

[wishingoneyelashes]

I did for the closed-file.

I did as well — she left me a little handwritten sticky note congratulating me on my acceptance in one of the mailed materials and I only saw it just now. It made me smile

Edit: I’m figuring she did this either for everyone, or for those she interviewed — but it was nice!

I did!

 

[j_diggity]

Did anyone interview with Dr. Glass (blind)?

He was my open-file!

[oatmilkplease]

My tin foil hat theory is that next round of acceptances will come out this thursday and friday (I know they said March 4th but historically they've come out every other week...trust)

 

[I_like_Floors]

What do you write in your second LOI/update letter, may I ask? I am not sure what to write now because I already provided all the update in my previous LOI (after interviewed).

I got a new job so I mentioned that and I sprinkled in some more interest to top it off (but like jobs, or publications, etc. would be good to mention and then top it off with some interest). Or at least thats what I think is good

[FinancialBagel]

For those accepted, did anyone receive any information on financial aid yet (either need-based or merit-based)?

May I ask how you submitted your CSS profile for WashU? I was also accepted in December but did not receive the CSS code yet, and I could not find it online.

I just searched it on CSS because I also couldn't find it. Hopefully I didn't just throw away that money haha.

I emailed admissions about net partner back in Jan and I haven’t gotten that either. The admissions person told me to fill out FAFSA but nothing about CSS so I didn’t fill it out and given how involved it is, probably won’t unless we are told it’s needed…. The CSS might be used for other programs in the school of medicine (like PhDs)?

 

[FinancialBagel]

Their financial aid website said that the CSS profile will be required for need-based aid; however, it also says we should get a code once admitted that allows us to not pay the CSS profile fee (which is really nice of them). Sadly, it seems no one has received that code yet Sorry to hear you may have thrown that money away, but fingers crossed you didn't

Darn! Well, I should've looked into it more thoroughly -- I def think continuing to wait makes the most sense. Just very eager to hear more about what my financial situation would be here. Sigh

 

[premed155180]

from past experience/research, does anyone have a hunch as to which of the four WashU decision release dates (ie, waves) results in the most or least amount of acceptances? The last wave (2 of 4) seemed low, but I'm not sure.

Haha, I definitely feel that, I feel so antsy not being able to submit everything yet

Can admitted applicants see CYMS "Plan to Enroll" in AMCS?

I cannot and was accepted mid feb

Based on previous years my guess (and prayer) is that the next wave will be the biggest, but this could also be cope

 

[oatmilkplease]

I think it has to be. First two were pretty light

Yeah true, unless fewer people posted on sdn this year

 

[mz1217]

For LOI, should it be addressed straight to Dean Ratts or the admissions committee? Should it be emailed or still uploaded to portal? I'm seeing contradictory opinions online

 

[oatmilkplease]

Anyone know if the 30% post-II acceptance rate figure from admit.org is correct? Feels a bit higher than the numbers I've seen thrown around on previous threads (closer to 20%)

No clue where this website is getting its data from

I think I've seen like ~25% so the 29% they have on their website does not seem too way off.

admit.org sources its data from the USNews spreadsheets, which also float around on SDN
