Is anyone on the waitlist receiving emails about their Preview day and summer events for the next year/cycle?

I have yet to receive anything.

I have yet to receive anything.

Same

Does anyone know of waitlisted applicants in previous cycles who sent a letter of intent but didn't get accepted? Just wondering if they even read those letters

 

[DeepValue]

Does this school reject anyone post interview or is everyone pretty much just accepted or waitlisted?

I know of people who interviewed this year and got rejected. So I’m definitely seeing being waitlisted as more of a positive thing. There’s still hope for us 🙏🏻

 

[hike22]

Hopefully there will be some movement in the coming week or so.

 

[Ojo_Cinco]

Got the A yesterday, I’m going to decline it. Hopefully it goes to one of y’all good luck and stay hopeful!!

 

[$ugaa9]

Does anyone know if there's a groupme for accepted students and how many people are in it?

 

[Superman4Life]

Accepted today. Can hardly believe it's real. I was an April interviewer and felt all was lost at the start of June. I was emailed that the waitlist remains active just four days ago, All is well! Do not lose hope.
Interviewed: 4/11/22
Waitlisted: 4/27/22
Accepted: 6/6/22

 

[Jam123]

Is there a certain time in the day in which they are more likely to call?

 

[DeepValue]

When does movement stop? And why are so many people giving up their spots here?

 

[$ugaa9]

The uiwsom class of 2026 fb group has 160 members including 2 moderators. Maybe it's over

 

[hike22]

rip..

Its also a possibility that people are still in the group and have accepted a spot somewhere else and haven't removed themselves. Hopefully....

Movement can last til the start of classes. I know people who were pulled off the waitlist a week before classes started last year so you never know.

 

[DeepValue]

Why are people giving up their spots so easily at this school? Does this school have some red flags?

I think you are making a lot of assumptions, @DeepValue.
Many of the people leaving their seats have been on the WL for so many months that they have in the meantime been accepted to other schools - either schools closer to home or schools where they will have a lower cost of attendance.

 

[Jam123]

I GOT THE CALL!!! I was accepted just right now!! My heart is racing!

 

[$ugaa9]

Been on the waitlist since last year, sent a few letters of intent already, and withdrawing my waitlist spot. They just don't want me lol. Good luck to you all!

 

[DeepValue]

Withdrawing my spot as well. COMLEX pass rates seem to be alarmingly low

Congrats! When did you interview?

 

[Jam123]

Congrats! When did you interview?

Interview was 3/25 and was waitlisted 4/5

 

[happydoc23]

Interview was 3/25 and was waitlisted 4/5

Congratulations!! I also interviewed 3/25 and was waitlisted the same day. Still have been waiting. 😭

 

[DeepValue]

FB group is at 160 so that’s a full class, right? No more movement anyways, right?

 

[hike22]

sounds like it

 

[taylorl1996]

There could still be movement! We had people get accepted during the summer, with the latest being a week before orientation. Also, I recommend looking into our MBS program if not accepted this cycle!

 

[Srich Lackaro]

I got an acceptance email on Thursday I interviewed around the last batch in April. I’ll decide b/w this one or KCUCOM.. tough decision for me.

I went to KCU MBS program and ended up choosing UIWSOM. Both are very different learning styles so pick the one that best fits you!

 

[BoraKite]

Got accepted off the waitlist today!!! Surreal amount of emotions. Thank you to everyone in this thread who helped answer questions. Good luck to everyone, don't give up!

 

[seasaltcaramel]

Is there any current students who'd be willing to answer some questions privately? Thank you!
