This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Interviewing is coming to a close. Alternate list will move quite a bit as interviews at other schools fill up and students decide where they want to go. If you are interested, you can contact admissions at any time, they are great about keeping prospective students up to date.

You won't have any problem at all. Most people are in their 20's

Yeah I was hoping too but it could be another day, last year on today was the day that a lot of people heard back, but I think a previous year heard on the first week of April

Thanks so much haha. It was really the most painful part. I knew MSU said they would tell people around the time the 2nd deposit was due. I was hoping they would do it before that but couldn't take the risk and not pay for my seat.

Good luck to you! Not 100% sure if I'm taking the seat yet, so more movement is possible!

Does anyone know when they'll post the match list for this year?
 
Admissions committee is still going through the wait list and said they will try finding me a seat for this cycle but they also said if they can't then they offered me a seat for class of 2024. Is this a differed acceptance?

Did you send them some sort of email? Or did they just send that to you? I did not receive this email, does that mean my chances are zero?

Email and idk

So you didnt send them anything post-interview? Should I send them some sort of letter of interest or intent? I have heard these things are not that helpful so im cautious about it.

I believe there was a ton of movement on 3/19. That's when I was pulled off the alternate list-- Interviewed in march.

My portal has completely changed to multiple things like "application for standardized patient program" and "comlex prep", what does this mean? What does accepted applicants portals change to?
