Did she get into Youngstown?
@bsmd2020 @jumbletumbles About 3 hours from Neomed and also received the YSU alternate letter. Clearly need to wait a couple of days for everything to come in.
@dvrvarma123 - the girl who got accepted to YSU, by when does she need to reply back?
My memory is fading so fast and my D always tease me that you don’t know what breakfast you had today, dad. Still let me try to recall what I remember from NEOMED parent info session.
- This one for sure. The clearly told, you can rank the 3 schools ONLY and ONLY if you got an interview. So in our D situation, she was invited only for UofA and hence we listed only 1 school in the ranking sheet.
- If I remember correctly, they told, though you can list them in any order, the same way, schools will provide a list of ranking of which students they want to extend the offer. So theoretically you can get an offer from 3rd listed school or may get wait listed from 1st ranked school and they are independent decision. So I think students/parents should NOT think if they are wait listed for their 3rd choice school, it means that they are not selected in their 1st or 2nd choice schools. You may know about their decisions until you get notifications. So happened YSU first started notifying. So don't conclude Kent or UofA is gone deal if you have listed YSU as 3rd choice. Hope for the best and wait for few more days and all will get resolved. Best wishes to all of you.
Suggest, one of the student/parents who got interview and listed either Kent or UofA as higher choice than YSU and got YSU wait listed, please check your Kent or UofA portal and see what it says. That will help any student/parent who are concerned about the wait list in YSU and not able to confirm how to interpret the current status.
@GoldenRock, this is regarding your post (#203) our understanding is same as yours. We also got invite from UofA.
The mail was just delivered at my house (Cleveland area) and there was no NEOMED notification letter. I’m starting to feel very impatient and nervous about what this means.
I just got an acceptance email!!! But the email didn’t say what undergrad school I got into
@VaishS Congrats. Did the email came from NEOMED, I presume? So you are the first one to report about acceptance for this year?
@vaishs, congratulations
I just received my acceptance email - I had received ug invite only from UofA. email was sent by NEOMED.
Best wishes to others.
Note:
NEOMED does not require any response to the acceptance. We need to respond to the UG institution that are sending the acceptance (snail mail) - apparently those were mailed on March 11.
My daughter also got acceptance email from NeoMed. But not letter even today by mail. I am sure she didn’t get into Youngstown. I am hoping it’s one of the two. She had Kent as 1st choice. Neomed doesn’t say which university.
Yup the email was from NEOMED and it didn’t say what undergrad for me either
I got an email from Neomed saying I got put on the alternate list!
I got an email I didn’t get a letter though
I got an acceptance email from NEOMED today but have yet to receive anything through snail mail so I’m anxious so find out which UG school accepted me.
My neighbor got notification from NEOMED saying he didn’t get in. I don’t know if it was an email or letter. He is on an alternative list. I didn’t want to ask him anything else. He is so upset because he really wanted to go there. He worked so hard in school, GPA above a 4.0, and ACT above 30 with lot of hospital volunteering. He is such a great young man, respectful, great character and integrity. Unlike those who were kicked out last year for reasons I will not name. I am sick about it for him. There must of been a huge group applying with incredible ACTs and GPAs. Either that, or he didn’t interview well. Awwwwwwwwe.
Congratulations to those who got in. You will love the program and the school. The white coat ceremony is so special.
This is my last post. I need to be a good friend and support my neighbors since I know they are very sad and disappointed. And knowing this young man, he will be disappointed in himself. Ughhhhhh. I think I will go buy them a box chocolates and drop it off tonight.
The email brought good news, but I am definitely anxious to find out my undergrad match. Congratulations to everyone.
Congrats to those of you that have been accepted! Hope you can fully enjoy your Spring Breaks now!
My son just got home and checked his email - Waitlisted. We know he’s on at least YSU’s waitlist because he already received their letter. No other letters have arrived via mailbox today so I guess we’ll see tomorrow or the next day if he’s on any of the other alternate lists.
For those on the alternate list(s) - it’s not a rejection. Don’t forget that! No one wants to be anyone’s backup plan, but if you get to go to ‘the dance’ in the end, it doesn’t matter whether you were a first choice or back up/alternate choice. Your goal would be accomplished either way.
So again, congrats to those accepted & hang in there for those on alternate list limbo!
@bsmd2020 I’m from the canton area too and I got wait listed as well, same thing ysu was my third and I got wait listed there
