This delay is incredibly disrespectful. People have to be deciding where to move and everything that goes along with that at this point, but to leave so many hanging like this is simply disrespect to their candidates lives...

Newsflash: Most medical schools (and the AAMC) do not care about applicants’ feelings or life circumstances. They all know they have fresh meat willing to be hazed -- no matter how egregious their actions -- as long as there’s a stable pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.

not trying to sound dramatic but it really breaks my heart to be honest...

EDIT: Turned down my 3rd gap year job, all were pretty worthwhile, hoping the sacrifice wasn’t for nothing...4th and final cycle for me so this one really gave my all...

Omg that is so disheartening. You absolutely deserve an A and I hope you get in!

Newsflash: Most medical schools are not anywhere near as behind as Toledo, and there is a line that they have crossed here. What you said adds very little to what is actually an exceptional situation, not typical to any medical school I've heard of.

Nah. It's frustrating (and I'm saying this as someone who spent $$$ reapplying on Thursday and who will have to scramble to find an apartment if accepted) but they're going to fill the class no matter what. They could wait until July and they'd still fill the class. If I got an A at 11:59 pm on July 27, you bet I'd take it, because I'm not giving up that opportunity. I'm pretty sure most other applicants would, too. If it was your only shot, would you really turn it down?

Yes, they are running exceptionally late this year. In 4 weeks (!!!) they're going to be getting next year's applications in. Some part of the system clearly broke down. They're not delaying us for funsies.

Cliche as it is, 2020 was weird, and for whatever reason Toledo's process wasn't equipped to deal with that weirdness. Hopefully, when this is over they'll look back over it and fix whatever went wrong. If they don't, then, yeah, that's a much bigger issue. In the meantime, the current situation sucks for everyone involved, but at this point, it's what we've got.

Hoping for lots of movement this week.🤞

Sounds like someone who's been through hell and back already. When you do get in, whenever/wherever that is, you will be ahead of the game in terms of knowing reality.

Rejected today at about 10:15 am. I don’t mind at all because I’m going to a preferred school but wanted to let you all know so you can keep track of their timeline.

So I just got an admit to a pipeline program at another school that all but guarantees admission for the next year. I turned it down, before you say anything, I have a back up plan, but I would really like to hear from Toledo before making my final decision. PLSSSSSS

I emailed them again about the scholarship deadline and they said that the scholarship and financial aid committee is aware of the delay in getting decisions and have extended the deadlines with no end date at this time. If you are planning to apply for a scholarship you should plan to have the materials ready to go if you get accepted.

Yeah they told me the same thing but the scholarship form still closed on May 31st. I am trying to get in touch to see if it will be extended considering that they are still accepting people.

There’s no deadline for the scholarship application anymore.
 
The posts from earlier today really had me hoping for one massive wave of decisions, but alas. I can't believe it's already June.

They said before that it was normal for there to be a few days' delay in showing up in CYMS, but if it's been longer than that...

EDIT: Oh wait, I just found that post. That person's not able to apply for the upcoming cycle. That's uh, interesting. I really hope that doesn't mean they're planning on this cycle dragging past the end of June...

You would think decisions would be coming out faster considering they’ve only filled about half their class and their school year starts next month...but none of this has been logical anyway🙃

According to last year’s thread, 2nd week of June seemed like a big week of WL movement so....maybe next week is THE week based on this info? 🤡
