2023-2024 Wayne State

[wysdoc]

I got accepted to Wayne State and was wondering if there were any current medical students I could PM or could PM me to talk about their experience

There's a 4th year student who posts here sometimes: 2023-2024 Wayne State
Start by reading all their posts on this thread and if you still have questions after that maybe send a PM

When does the most waitlist movement happen??

When does the most waitlist movement happen??

I feel like it’s been a minute since we’ve seen any waitlist movement & when we do see it, it seems to be less people. I think it’s likely we won’t see any more “real” movement until after April 30th, but I hope we have some sooner

Also, did anyone ever get a post-ii R? or is anyone still waiting on a post-ii decision? or did we all just get WL or A?

I think they save the post-ii Rs for people who show red flags bc I for sure tanked my MMIs (legit keeps me up at night).

based on how many people they interview though, this makes me nervous thinking their WL is like 600+ people. so like should we have hope??

& I get that, I didn’t do as well on my MMIs here as the other school I had an ii (I think it’s bc most of my interviewers had some type of connectivity issue & it threw me off), but they went okay & my faculty/student interviews went well, so I was expecting a WL or R.

Yeah I think like 300 or 350 get offered A’s off the waitlist but idk. We’ve just gotta ride it out

anyone else really hoping for WL movement this week since people had to start narrowing down acceptances on 04/15?

another forum I follow bc I'm WL there too said they prob won't move anyone until May bc that's when the "commit to enroll" option opens. I'm really hoping that isn't the case but :/

They’ve been pulling people off the WL since January. Admittedly there’s been less WL movement recently, but I think it’s possible it could happen this month. I gotta hope or I’ll go insane (& I already am going insane)

Is Thursday the day they usually send out decisions or have I just been giving myself false hope every week

idk but I survive on my own delusion so Thursday hopes it is!!!

I feel like I’ve seen most decisions on Thursday on here & I also got my ii + WL on Thursday so every Thursday at like 2 ish I’m checking obsessively.

But I’ve seen posts of people finding out on other days of the week also so who knows.

I called admissions this morning and they said while they're not on the committee what they can tell me is it can happen literally any time between now and the first week of classes. When I said some schools are waiting until May they said they aren't doing that and it could be "at any time" so just wait and rot it is I guess

I noticed that there will be admitted student tours on April 26th and May 6th. I wonder if this means some WL movement will happen before May 6th so that newly admitted students can attend.

Maybe who knows, I'm sure there will be some first week of May. They've been having waitlist movement already too.

It's actually July 12th it's posted on their milestones page

Anyone get any significant scholarship/grant aid from WSU? Especially wondering about the need-based scholarship & if anyone got at or near the full amount

For the need based it's based off your Pell LUE if you go to fafsa you can see the lifetime usage percent. If you're near 600% you get the full 18k

Will this aid just apply to the M1 year or M2 as well?

Financial aid officer said its guaranteed every year so all 4. May want to double check that though

For accepted students, we are not required to select PTE today, correct?

I think you don't have to if you only have 1 acceptance, but you do if you have more than one acceptance.
