How soon after the phone call do accepted students get an email confirming their acceptance?

Members don't see this ad.
 
From last year's thread, it looks like people noticed a glitch in the application status portal prior to being accepted. Has that been happening at all this year? Asking for a friend who is (probably unnecessarily) looking at the application status portal way too often.

For the financial aid form, all we had to do was electronically sign the form and its sent to financial aid right? We don't have to do anything extra?
 
You guys freaking me out with all the new messages on this thread

Just gave B a call, they said they'll be sending out acceptances today and tomorrow. Hopefully reputable source, REALLY not trying to stir up more anxiety.

You called the admissions office and they said that? How did you finesse that lol

So I'll recap the convo. I asked the front desk lady if they're finished sending out admissions offers for the month of February. She said no they are not. I'm thinking, woah big news, let me confirm this. I asked again, so does this mean they will be sending offers today and tomorrow? This was met by her saying indeed, that is correct.
That's all the info i have :)

Dear Baylor, I've tried my best to do everything you asked. I kept up the stats, did the ECs, showed you my passion at the interview, and sent you a love letter. You're my #1 please let me be one of your top 300.

Does anyone think the issues/bad publicity at St. Luke’s will negatively affect Baylor’s training or reputation?

I hardly doubt it. The students who have come to our residency program over the years from Baylor have been just amazing residents. I can't see that this will hurt the school in any major way. This is such a great school and the fact that OOS can switch into IS makes this one of the absolute best bargains in medical education. None of my out of state advisee premeds have gotten an interview there in the past 3 years!!! And many have gotten some pretty good interviews. But not Baylor! I think I love them more now that "we" have been turned down but my love for this school is pretty solid.

Seeing this and then immediately getting a call...from my gym talking about an error on my account. My heart can't take this.

Sorry to make everyone panic, but I just got a call about my acceptance - idk if this is a case-by-case basis, or signs of a bigger A wave

Congrats on all the acceptances! I have a quick question if y'all don't mind: I've been accepted at Baylor since December, but after UTSW's second look weekend I've been sold on attending UTSW and I'm about 99% sure I'm going there. Should I withdraw from Baylor so that my acceptance can go to someone else, or should I go to their second look in April to get closure?
