Did anyone else still just never receive confirmation after sending in their alternate list form?
It's ranked. Not based on when you interviewed but based upon how much they like you.Anyway to find out if waitlist is ranked ?
Does anyone know if there's a way to find out where you are ranked on the wait-list?
Not sure what criteria they use to rank? MCAT 520 masters bio 3.9... great EC...
They will not divulge the criteria used
Lol higher than mineMCAT 520 masters bio 3.9.. on alt list
What are my chances

Maybe my paranoia is taking over, but ~5 acceptances reported on SDN alone makes me wonder if they filled all the spots that opened up on April 30 in one fell swoop.
LOL Higher than mine ( but I don't have a masters) - but what is your undergrad GPA?
The hero we needed, but not the one we deserveBecause I am a crazy person, I went back and counted the past 3 years of WL acceptances that we’re posted on SDN and it’s been around an average of 20 people so it’s definitely not over! Even if it was filled again on that day people are still waiting for other WL decisions after all!
Do you mind me asking how you went about asking them to match the other offer? Does Downstate generally not offer any additional money to students?No luck on having them match my offer at another school. Withdrew my A last night! buh bye
I worded it as a "financial barrier" and "the responsible decision". Then I said, "Ayyy lil mama, you got the green?" They then sent me an email stating I would need to take out $100,000 for the first year......... so I said, "YEET"Do you mind me asking how you went about asking them to match the other offer?

Doesn't seem like it so far :/ maybe tomorrow?Maybe a little movement today if they're offering spots at a weekly cadence?
Just officially committed (woo). Got off the waitlist late last week. Sure plenty of spots will open up as it seems that waitlist movement usually peaks in mid-late May (committee likely has to meet again, students get 5 business days to make a decision, few more days to process, etc. etc.)
For anyone that gets off the waitlist, I would be happy to talk as I had trouble making a final decision and discussed this fact with numerous students, gaining a ton of valuable insight in the process.
Best of luck to everyone! Stay positive.
Sounds like you'll be getting that email from them soon!I finally saw Downstate in my select your medical school tool on amcas and I selected plan to enroll, however, I never received an email informing that I got off the waitlist. Should I be worried. Did I get too excited?
9:17AMCongratulations! What time did you get the email?
Are new acceptances sent all at the same time or is there still hope of getting an email today?
Has anyone heard about the summer pre-matriculation program? I was just invited to it but it seems so sudden. Is it really that beneficial?

When is the CTE deadline for downstate ?
Yup. Thought I was accepted but nah, just gotta get my vaccines updated I guess. Whomp whomp.Did anyone else on the alternate list just receive the email about the admissions checklist? I guess it's to be prepared in case of acceptance
