What are the traffic guidelines for DO schools? I understand that I need to withdraw from other acceptances by May 1st according to AACOMAS, but does this guideline also include schools I've been waitlisted at?

AACOMAS Traffic Guidelines

Guidelines for prospective osteopathic medical students to successfully complete their applications to medical school.

Essentially, you can only hold one DO acceptance after May 1. Sounds like it is okay to be on WL, but they expect you to withdraw from lower-priority schools once you get an A.

Does anyone know where how do I withdraw my acceptance at NYITCOM?

Email admissions.

Anyone else get bridge program email? Any current students I can PM?

They send mass emails for the bridge program. If you would like to guarantee yourself a seat in a year (ASSUMING you pass the bridge program), then you can take it, or you can stay on the WL and hope for the A. I think they accept a lot of people from the WL.

Would you mind if I PM you about it?

Does it entail anything for the waitlisted people if having not received the email about the bridge program?

I got the email. I looked at the previous threads and it seemed like people who got the bridge email didn’t get off the waitlist :/

Not from anything I have seen. A lot of people who do OR don't receive the email get accepted from the WL at some point.

Has WL began movement yet?

Has WL began movement yet?

I think it is gonna start after May 1st tbh

 

[TripleT20]

Has WL began movement yet?

I am a firm believer that if it has, you would've heard about it here. If I were to guess, it will start in early May.

Does anyone know when the deadline to commit was for accepted students?

I read some previous posts about the deadline for tuition payment on April 15th. My understanding is that the committee meets monthly, (not sure how it works for the WL review).

Wait so even if you got the bridge program email you might still be able to get off the waitlist? Will it just be way later than if you didn’t get the email

don't think the april 15 is accurate. If i remember correctly, tuition is "collected" the day of orientation.

you can still come off wl if you got the bridge program offer

Yes. Can't say when anyone would get off WL if they received the email. You would be removed from the WL if you accepted the program, so don't accept it if you don't intend on doing it.

I saw a few people leaving the GroupMe. Hopefully in a few days, it moves for y'all. If not, perhaps next week.

 

[entropymania]

Withdrew my A, good luck everyone!

 

[capsunicapapa]

Hope movement will start soon!!!

If we did not receive that bridge program email does that mean we are higher up on the WL? When are we expecting WL movement to start?

Yeah I think so. Hopefully tomorrow

 

[capsunicapapa]

I guess movement does not start today

 

[TripleT20]

We started WL movement last year on May 10. Don't worry, friend! Just trust the process. I should see you on the other side!

 

[_CaptainKaladin_]

Last year it looks like they sent out a thing that said “WL movement begins today, are you still interested.” So I guess that will mark the beginning of WL movement this year? Who knows.

Finally got the Pre-II R just now

+1 email seem to have been worded in a way that gave me the impression my app was never actually seen, just notifying us of cycle closure

 

[_CaptainKaladin_]

Looks like a few people in the Jonesboro thread got As off the WL. Maybe a sign that OW will get started soon…

 

[capsunicapapa]

Nothing today, but hopefully, movement starts this week!!!

Last year movement started May 11th, so I’d assume it will start this week or next week.

did anyone else get another email for bridge program today? what does it mean for admission this cycle

DO NOT LOSE HOPE!!!!

No WL movement so far is making me nervous

Same!

 

[futurephysician111]

My guess is they are waiting to see who applies to the stimulation masters bridge program. The deadline is May 17. In addition, they mentioned on the info session for the bridge program that applicants could expect to hear back first or second week of June. Definitely a bit anxiety riding, but I would still have some hope based based on the fact people have mentioned in this thread that they have withdrawaled their A's and that no movement has been mentioned.

 

[medpmy]

Is this the first time that the WL movement hasn’t started in mid May for this school?
