No moreThey're through as in no more acceptances? I already interviewed and I know they are through with interviewing more people. I'm just curious as to when you interviewed, I did not get the email for the alternate list so I am hoping that I am still in contending before being placed on the alternate list since I interviewed early Jan.
Cycle this year is many more applicants. Usually on dec 1 out of 100 acceptances 40 accept. This year 65 acceptedI was never put on an alternate list for UTSD and was accepted late March last year and interviewed mid Jan.
This gives me hopeI was never put on an alternate list for UTSD and was accepted late March last year and interviewed mid Jan.

Dr. Cooley probably, Dr. Galindo is on maternity leave I believeShould I email Dr. Cooley or Dr. Galindo?
I remember San Antonio saying that they had a lot more people accept December 1st than they usually do. Not sure if this will for sure impact the amount of rounds sent out, or if they same thing happened with UTSD and TAMU.Do y'all think it is because the schools are wrapping up pretty quickly this year? I pray this is not the case. I try to stay positive as best as I can, but every now and then when I tune in on new updates on SDN, I lose hope by the minute

You may be right, I honestly don't have any idea! Adriana Segura just said at my interview that they had more people accept on December 1st. It could literally mean nothing.I have a completely unsupported theory that there are less people this year who were accepted to all three universities. I have only heard of one other one in real life, and i've seen a few on here. in the previous cycles you see a ton of them. This means people are accepting the ones they were offered and not rejecting the others since they weren't offered, increasing the yield.
Should I email Dr. Cooley or Dr. Galindo?
Call up directlyI emailed Roxanna Zarate from UTSD Student affairs and this is what she said verbatim:
"Hello,
As of right now we are still trying to fill our class and it can still take several months to do so. Please be patient with us as this is a very long process."
THERE IS STILL HOPE!
So if I want to send a letter of intent to Dr.Miller, should I do it now or wait until I "might" get on the alternate list?Email response from Janet Pledger from TAMU:
"We do potentially have a full class with the offers that we have made, we do have 2 more weeks before those responses are due. We will be sending out letters in about a month to offer some applicants a place on our Alternate List. We usually place around 30 applicants on the Alternate List, and in a typical year we will use a number of those alternates."
Are you a reapplicant?The conversation about UTSD becomes interesting. I really want to know how it turns out. I got the same email as Amnerd, seem like she copies and pastes. FYI: last year when I emailed on April, the email specifically stated that the class is almost full and they were forming alternative list.
Yes, I am. Last year I got my interview on October and this year on January.Are you a reapplicant?
Theyre through

I am being honest. Not trolling.Lingbird, I don't know if you're some troll behind a screen making people anxious, but your posts have no consistency at all. If what you're saying is indeed true, then at least say it with a bit of respect and say what you're saying in a decent way.
Is English your second language? You have unusual mannerisms.I am being honest. Not trolling.
Do you have to update your Rec letters? Or is just re writing your personal statement enough?Thanks to every one who contributed to this thread. I feel like this is like a support group, haha. I've all but accepted the worst outcome and that is I'll apply next cycle. The biggest hassle would probably to get updated recommendation letters but other than that, I'm done with all my prereqs and am happy with my GPA and DAT. At least we'll have a head start in May! Keep working hard, you will get in one way or another.

I have not said anything disrespectful. I am just stating what I know. Sorry if you took offense. I just urge you to call the school directly if there are any doubts of my validityLingbird, I don't know if you're some troll behind a screen making people anxious, but your posts have no consistency at all.

Hello all, I'm part of the fb group for utsd and it seems there might be 10-15 spots left. This is variable bc some ppl might not have joined fb or some have a utsd acceptance but are waiting for tamu/sa. I'm pretty confident y'all will hear something the week of march 5th. No news is good news right now!
Which is the utsd fb group name?To add onto this, some people are in multiple facebook groups. I know i joined all of them before making my decision, and i've yet to leave them
UTSD CO 2021, why?Which is the utsd fb group name?
So I guess that's good that I did not receive the alternative list yet.For those waiting on UTSD, I emailed Dr. Galindo and she pretty much said no news is good news. If your status changed, the office would notify you immediately.
Do you know when did your friend receive acceptance email?Another friend just got a acceptance from UTSD idk about this alternate list stuff but they're still sending acceptances apparently.
He got it at 12:55. My guess is someone dropped an acceptance and he was next on the list. The march wave should still be scheduled for the week of march 5Do you know when did your friend receive acceptance email?
thank you!He got it at 12:55. My guess is someone dropped an acceptance and he was next on the list. The march wave should still be scheduled for the week of march 5

What's that?who is doing the pre matriculation program for UTHSCSA?
Its basically aimed towards students from an underrepresented minority population, a resident of a medically- or dentally-underserved region in Texas, or have a history of overcoming adverse circumstances. But being part of the program it is expected that you share what you learn with your classmates when school begins so don't worry you wont miss out on the information.What's that?
As long as it's not a pre reqAre we allowed to pass/fail a science class?
