Does anyone know if St. Luke's ranks their CC list, or if you can find out where you are on the CC list?

They do not release rank info as far as I know

 

[Udsie]

Just withdrew my acceptance to St. Luke’s. Hope it goes to one of you guys!

 

[Premednyc]

Does anyone know how to withdraw? Is there somewhere on the portal or do we just email?

Just email asking for your deposit back.

 

[nsnsnsns]

I’m on the CC list and did not receive such an email so maybe that does mean something!

What's the cc list?

 

[FutureSawbones]

What's the cc list?

"continuing candidates" list. Its just what Temple calls their waitlist

 

[persist_Mill]

What's the cc list?

Continuing Candidates List. Their name for the Waitlist.

 

[bluethroat]

Anyone remember when we'd hear back regarding WL movement? Did they ever mention anything?

Have you checked your Tuportal?

 

[stillholdinghope]

Have you checked your Tuportal?

Yeah it still says applicant

 

[skrrss]

Yeah it still says applicant

I was put on the waitlist but my portal still says applicant too. I recommend emailing the admissions office, they are super helpful!

Thank you! I will try that

I sent an email to admissions withdrawing my app and got the refund but it still shows on my choose your medical school tool. Anyone else? It’s been almost a week too.

I'm on the CC list and I just got a survey to gauge my interest in Temple. Don't know if it means anything or if it went to everyone

I got it and idk what to do. They won't tell us where we are in the CC list but want us to tell them where they are in our priority. The balance of power...

My guess is that our position on the list depends on how we answer the question. If you write you will definitely accept you'll move up the list

 

[SweetBurger]

i would love to believe that it helps my position, but i dont think it moves your ranking

Should we fill this out?

 

[cabbagefacts1]

I wouldn’t overthink it guys. It says if you choose option 1 or 2, you will be considered when they evaluate the waitlist. Maybe the first option will be more important closer to matriculation.

I wouldn't choose "definitely will accept" unless that's actually true. I think we should view this response like sending a letter of intent - aka it would be quite bad to say that you'll definitely go there, get accepted, and then not take the offer if you get accepted into another school that you'd rather go to. That's a pretty big no-no. Not saying that's what you're recommending, but I wanted to warn you guys of this.

 

[SweetBurger]

i put option 1 cus its true. I doubt it holds that much weight although temple mentions they are receptive to LOI type stuff

 

[doodle4210]

Just chose option 3 and officially withdrew. Good luck to everyone!

I'm not suggesting people should lie, I'm just saying schools protect their yields so they're going to look at people first who definitely want to go there. If they still have spots later they'll look at the people who said they were a maybe.

 

[MDwarrior]

Got that survey as well,good luck

 

[FuturePedsDoc1993]

This was an incredibly difficult decision as I have a special place in my heart for Temple, but I officially withdrew today.

I agree with this. but their wording in the survey seems like they are asking for PTE, not CTE. so technically if you were to get into another school, with say a full scholarship, you're not bound to attend temple even if it is your first choice right now.

Agreed as well. A lot of things can change that aren’t expected after May 1st. Temple is my top choice at the moment but I still haven’t received my financial aid packages from other schools. I know when I interviewed for St. Luke’s they said all students get 10K a year scholarships and that is what I’m basing my decision off of right now. All of the schools I’m on the waitlist for I love and am picking solely on cost of attendance...

 

[xOrdealz]

Does anyone know if Temple is true P/F or do they internally rank for the first couple of years?

 

[WaitlistQueen]

Does anyone know what Temple is planning to do for the fall? I always thought I'd want to go to a big city for medical school, but with the odds of COVID-19 seriously disrupting education for the long haul, maybe being in less-affected areas is the better option.

 

[Alexander Brosef]

Submitted the waitlist form yesterday with option 2, but just got rejected by my top choice. Should I send them an email and let them know they are my top choice? Help!

 

[MDwarrior]

sounds rough, need To keep all options Open, you have to be your best advocate in the process at all times

can you submit the survey a second time and then email them and say like please only acknowledge my second response?? or something idk

 

[Medschoolbelle]

It might reboot on its own. Override what you answered first I think

 

[FuturePedsDoc1993]

How do we withdraw our acceptance?? I emailed them but it’s still showing on my CYMS tool. Do I have to do something on the portal?

Nope it just takes a few days. I received my refund back this morning after withdrawing yesterfday but they just haven't processed it on choose your medical school.

 

[studentdoc124]

did they send you a confirmation email? I emailed to withdraw but its still on my amcas choose your medical school tool and i still have access to the portal.

 

[Alexander Brosef]

Has anyone been accepted to the St. Luke's campus recently?

 

[shot_wasabi]

did they send you a confirmation email? I emailed to withdraw but its still on my amcas choose your medical school tool and i still have access to the portal.

In the same boat. I e-mailed the school I clicked PTE on just to notify them that I did withdraw from my other acceptances but for some reason it hasn't updated yet. just in case lol

 

[Porpoiseman12345]

Just received email confirmation of my withdrawal from the waitlist at St. Luke's. Loved the program but got accepted somewhere cheaper and closer to home. Good luck everyone!

was the email just a refund confirmation or a separate email?

 

[Porpoiseman12345]

I was on the WL so there was no refund. Just a confirmation of my withdrawal

 

[Korsakov]

Just withdrew from the main campus program. I hope that spot goes to one of you! Best of luck to all still hoping for that A

 

[MomJeansandDadJorts]

For anyone waiting, I interviewed very late in march last year, CC list in April, Accepted off the WL on May 9th (or around there). And got a scholarships so being on the WL doesn't affect that.
