A few new people joined the FB/groupme this afternoon - I have no idea if that means WL movement has started or not

good news for everyone on the waitlist - the FB group is down to 99!
both for your guys' sake and because of my anger at pritzker for telling me to go f*ck myself financial aid-wise twice, I hope they have to go super deep on their WL this year 😈
stop talking about Pritzker like this cause girllllll they know its you.

That comment was made 100% in jest and I apologize for doing a poor job of conveying that. Except for the part about hoping there's a lot of WL movement because a. I want classmates who are as excited to come here as I am and b. if any of you are still waiting on your first A I know how anxiety-inducing it is bc that was me until Pritzker came to the rescue!

Oh WOW you're right there's been a massacre in there. There hasn't been a corresponding mass exodus from the groupme so I'm guessing they went in and removed people

Thanks for the update and for constantly checking this SDN to support us!!! Really appreciate your time & support 🥺🥺

Also I'm not sure if I should change my username? 😅 Jessy is my English name that I didn't use for my application so I don't think admission officers would notice who I am but I'm a little bit nervous now LOL

I've straight up seen people use their full legal names on here so I think you're fine...I guess people have used my comments to try to piece together who I am which is hilarious because I've let my friends without SDN accounts ask questions through me before and usually change details slightly in comments

I think they might be trying to be nice and match people’s financial need as much as possible? 🥹 also i wonder if they are only calling/ considering people who already PTE to other schools because I am sitting bere with 3 WLs & 1 unreleased decision… 😢

Also i should be stop analyzing all these sdn comments lol 😭

Congrats, did you guys receive any email yesterday asking to confirm if you still want to be on waitlist? I received the email yesterday wondering if it means anything

Everyone on the WL got that email

Yes, replied to the email yesterday stating my interest/intent, and my reply was referenced during the call :)

Did you say something more than that you were interested in staying on the WL?

Just that I would love to attend if offered the A! It was like a two-sentence email, but I will say I have been in occasional contact with my interviewers pre and post-WL notification, so that may have helped my case!

I flat out emailed today and asked if they expect any more WL movement because I’m a crazy ball of anxiety so will keep everyone updated 👍🏼 Im an MSTP candidate so a bit of a different situation but still

Any update from adcoms?
They responded saying they have filled their class and do not anticipate using the WL further 😔 Again, this was for MSTP though, so while I’m probably out of luck, they may be taking a different approach for MD only

Best of luck elsewhere :)
 
Nvm it’s 81 now as of this morning. Out of those 6 are chat admin.
Oh wow, sounds like a lot of people committed elsewhere. Hopefully that's good news for us on the WL. Thanks for keeping us updated!

I wish you the best of luck elsewhere! Good news always come after the bad news so don't lose hope yet!!

The CTE date for MSTP is literally a week from today with classes starting next month and it isn't until July for MD, so I think it's reasonable to assume that they move faster for MSTP

Yep looks like they physically removed everyone who isn't coming to Pritzker so the class size is at least 75 rn. So exciting knowing everyone in the group is one of my future classmates for sure 🤩

A on tues and FA on Friday evening, the wait is a killer
 
Could someone give an update on the current GroupMe size? Just trying to gauge whether there's still a chance.
 
74 non admin but they closed the groupme and changed it to say entering class
