Waitlist Round 2
Just a quick not to say that we sent our second round of waitlist offers (eg. third round of offers) today. The deadline is Wednesday, June 5 @ 12:00 noon PDT. Congratulations to those who received an offer!
Waitlist Round 1
We know some of you are eagerly waiting to hear news about how the waitlist is going and we apologize that we could not post sooner (the website underwent some back-end upgrades last week and a freeze was instated). We sent our first round of waitlist offers on Thursday, May 23 in the afternoon. The […]
Being Waitlisted
Being Waitlisted As you can imagine, we are getting a number of questions from applicants who have been waitlisted. We understand that being waitlisted frequently feels like a combination of disappointment at not being admitted, elation at not being rejected, and confusion about what to do and how to prepare for the future. The thoughts,” […]
MED 2016 Class is Full
Orientation for MED 2016 started today. Best wishes to the class of MED 2016 as you start on your path to medicine! Since the class is now finalized, we notified the few remaining applicants on the waitlist. The news was probably not unexpected to most of you. Knowing for sure that no more spots will […]
Waitlist Shortened
We shortened the waitlist today. It may seem like bad timing due to the holiday weekend, but we know that a lot of you have been waiting on this for a while and we wanted to let everyone know as soon as possible. We also thought that having an extra day to be with supportive […]

Offers Process Overview
Just like you, we at the Admissions Office are counting down the days until we send out the offers! It is an exciting time for us as we see who will finally make up the class of MED 2016. This post is the first in a series of posts about the offers. Today we’ll cover […]
Waitlist Movement
Great news for some of you! Today, we restored a number of applicants who were originally removed from the waitlist, back to their position on the waitlist. This year we have experienced an unusually high amount of waitlist movement, particularly for this late in the game, and have therefore taken this course of action. We originally made […]
