Duuuude I hope not. There are no programs in my state so like... I can't go in-state, dammit!
-
Ok now I'm curious, what's it say?

I've been rejected from one school I interviewed at last year and (presumably) rejected from another that waitlisted me last year, so... yeah.
-
Gotcha. Well. I guess we'll see!
-
Where did they say 1/23? I just saw on their website it says they're typically notified late January... last year I heard from them mid-Feb.
-
Not at all. I've been to three. One at a Panera, one at a grill type restaurant, one at a current student's apartment building. Current students were mostly in leggings in all three cases.
-
Well crap, Oklahoma last year didn't notify me til 2/10. Now I'm panicking.
-
@Ellaie, did you rewrite your personal statement as well?
-
the hospital near me with a GC dept doesn't allow shadowing. They're apparently starting a small one at another hospital in town, so pray for me they'll let me see. That should strengthen my application for next year.
-
Thx for the update. It's not looking good for me. Congrats on ISU Edit: Got the email from IU and they're filled. I'll try for second match but looks like a second year applicant for me... anyone else a second year applicant and want to chat? I'd appreciate it.
-
Nope.
-
I'm waiting for Indiana's waitlist to move. It's my only shot.
-
@Gadgette Thanks. I hope we both get good news!! Are you going to do UPitt Public Health if not or reapply?
-
@Gadgette yeah. It's doubly frustrating because I honestly didn't care where I got in; I applied where I could afford, and only half my programs actually GOT my third recommendation and could review my app. I had issues since the professor is older and three states away and thought he submitted it and didn't. So that narrowed my chances a lot. Reapplying next year isn't the worst thing ever, but I already felt older than a lot of people at Indiana. Blah.
-
My biggest fear rn is not getting in at all. If the Indiana waitlist doesn't move and people hold onto spots until last minute, I'm out.
-
There's a pretty big nationwide gridlock, or at least, a lock at Indiana with all seven offers. That's basically how it is until someone makes a move. It's like all in one big chain.
-
Just called to Indiana and all seven offers are still open. Paula said the same thing happened last year, where everything's stuck until someone stops holding out/gets an offer/etc.

Wait. WHAT??? I guess everyone who dropped off the waitlist was after you? So say you were position 3 of 7, now you're 3 of 4? Something like that?
-
that's why second match exists. rare, but it happens.
-
It's only 11 here, noon on the east coast... people are still holding onto spots. Schools can't do anything until people let them know one way or the other.
-
@Lakers1960 gahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
-
@Lakers1960, I'm in the middle of the waitlist and was hoping for good news today. But if you haven't heard anything maybe not
-
I keep oscillating between the two. Blaaaaaaah.
-
Someone I talked to indicated that this year, you can just contact one of the schools you applied to and have them forward all your materials. So hopefully it'll be a bit less work.
-
Can I ask why you're doing that instead of trying for second match? If Indiana fills up I'm probably gonna try for second match unless there's a reason not to...
