moltenflammingcore Posted May 26, 2007 Report Share Posted May 26, 2007 I'm on the waitlist for Queens. I feel like I'm getting more anxious every day and more when I go through this forum but I can't stop checking it. I'd like to know if and when anyone has gotten acceptances for Queens post may 15th. To clarify my request.... Please post the day the administration sent you the email and not the day you opened it if it was post may 15th and only post may 15th. appreciate it.

cluelessaboutmed Posted May 30, 2007 Report Share Posted May 30, 2007 I was waitlisted at Queens on May 15th and accepted into U of A. I got an acceptance email from Queens today, but U of A is my first choice. I will probably decline tomorrow afternoon, so hopefully waitlist will start rolling. Good luck to everyone!

spriteguy Posted May 30, 2007 Report Share Posted May 30, 2007 do you guys think its too early to give Queens a call and ask about our approx. position on the waitlist? I'm trying to plan my time after Sept... and its hard with the possibility of going to Queens! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cluelessaboutmed Posted May 30, 2007 Report Share Posted May 30, 2007 Personally, I think it's still early. It's only been 2 weeks since initial acceptances were sent out. And I think all med schools have a policy of not disclosing your position on the waitlist. Does anyone happen to know the reasoning behind that?

bayervillager Posted May 30, 2007 Report Share Posted May 30, 2007 Hey Spriteguy! I agree with cluelessabout med and also think that it might be too early. I asked one of my friends who got in last year off the waitlist when she received her email and she said in early June. I would think that right now the admissions office is still sending out emails to waitlisters as acceptances are being declined and they get their paperwork sorted out. I know that being waitlisted is such an anxious experience having just gone through it, but you could be hearing good news from the admissions office really soon. That being said, if it's something urgent I don't think that it would hurt to phone them. The two ladies seem like such lovely people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
recycle_bin Posted May 30, 2007 Report Share Posted May 30, 2007 Check out: http://www.ouac.on.ca/omsas/omsas-dates.html June 8, 2007 Provisional acceptances become firm acceptances on this date. June 29, 2007 Final transcripts must be received at OMSAS by this date. Just thought this info might help! -recycle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spriteguy Posted May 30, 2007 Report Share Posted May 30, 2007 Thanks for the advice. I guess I can wait a couple of more weeks. Do you know if to decline an offer it has to be written rather than email?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wlX2 Posted May 30, 2007 Report Share Posted May 30, 2007 both of us using this account were accepted off the waitlist yesterday morning so it is definitely rolling... good luck to everyone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bayervillager Posted May 31, 2007 Report Share Posted May 31, 2007 I keep on getting scared that I'm in a dream (I pinched myself twice today), or imagine these horrible scenarios like they sent the email to the wrong person, or that the admissions office made a mistake, or that I will never pass my first aid course... Is anyone else having this weird anxious feeling or have I just gone complete and utter bonkers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is anyone else having this weird anxious feeling or have I just gone complete and utter bonkers? I hear you, bayervillager; my reaction has been very much the same. I spend vast amounts of time obsessing that someone, somewhere will suddenly find an obscure bureaucratic loophole and use it to disqualify me. This is still somewhat better than my reaction when I received the MCAT results. I printed my scores from the AAMC reporting site and asked my parents to verify that I was not hallucinating.

paulos Posted May 31, 2007 Report Share Posted May 31, 2007 a lot of us must be feeling like something might still go awry, guess that's typical for late acceptances, shock and disbelief... wait until we start learning about diseases in 2nd year, you'll think that every fever, ache and pain is some horrid malady like smallpox : medical students' disease Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bayervillager Posted May 31, 2007 Report Share Posted May 31, 2007 Thanks, Apothecary and paulos It's good to know that someone else felt the same way that I did. I really thought that I had gone crazy from all the stress and then shock! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
