bkasprzy Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Just wanted to start a topic for all of us who have been accepted pending an open seat/waitlist. Please post any updates you might have, or if you get taken off and brought into the class of 2015! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knic0318 Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Hi! I interviewed on November 20th, and was accepted pending an open seat. They called me last week, and sent me a letter on my email. I can't wait to hear back.. hopefully soon with good news! Good luck to everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tiktaalik Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 I was accepted, pending an open seat the day after my interview on October 9th. I got an email from Bonnie this morning asking if I'm still interested in the program as they have a few open seats to fill. It seemed like a general email that was sent to many others. Patiently waiting and hope for good news for all of us! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil87lip Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Is accepted pending an open seat different then being on the alternate list? Because I am hearing two different things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amandas430 Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Yes.. The applicants who were accepted pending an open seat will be offered a spot first. Then they go to the alternate list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil87lip Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Does anyone know how many people are on either list? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atsu-2016er Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Rest assured, it's a process and a long wait. One of my good friends in the class was set to go to Hofstra and then found out two days before orientation that she was given a seat. Being an AZ native, she decided to stay. Another found out less than three weeks before school started and had to make the move from Colorado. It can happen when you least expect it, so all I can advise is being patient. Best of luck!

tranman Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 I emailed Bonnie on Jan 9th and she said that Dr. Simon wanted to wait until after the last interview, last week, before he made any more decisions on who to offer seats to. So hopefully we'll hear soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil87lip Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 Anyone know how large ATSU's waitlist is and how what number they got up to last year? I am waitlisted and all Bonnie would tell me is that I am in the top half of the waitlist (meanig I am closer to getting in). I am just curious to see what my odds are of getting in. Any info would be helpful. I know it is a process and it may take some time. I am just nervous because I haven't gotten accepted anywhere yet and I am only on waitlists.

atsu-2016er Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 All I'll tell is to be patient. It's frustrating especially because the next cycle is fast approaching. I have one classmate that got the call 2 weeks before orientation and another that got the call 2 DAYS before orientation. The later was set to go to a school in New York, but being from Arizona, chose to stay home. Had to transfer financial aid, etc. ASAP. It was a small struggle but they're both doing great in class now. Seats open for the most random reasons, so all I can say is be patient. I know it's not easy, but outs part of the process. Remember, there's a while cycle of interviews at Fall start schools starting now, and folks may have a preference to go there, so seats may open in the coming months. Rest assured, if you get the call late, we're here to help make the transition and move happen as smooth as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil87lip Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 I appreciate your feedback. I will sit back and wait as patiently as I can and keep buffing up my application if I have to reapply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bw1218 Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 I appreciate your feedback. I will sit back and wait as patiently as I can and keep buffing up my application if I have to reapply. I am in the same boat. Good luck, and try to stay positive. Just start trying to make yourself a better applicant for next cycle in the meantime!

KKruegs Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 So that email today... anyone know what happened to expanding the class? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atsu-2016er Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 There will be 70, the last we heard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atsu-2016er Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Oh...also, at least one person got the call yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KKruegs Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Ok thank you ATSU- user. I was just pretty shocked to hear the class was full when a lot of us were hoping to see more calls going out. Fingers crossed still but it looks like it's time to visit the Caspa material again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil87lip Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 So that email today... anyone know what happened to expanding the class? I never received an email from the school. Was that only for people on the pending acceptance list or who had already been accepted? I am on the waitlist and it would be really unfortunate if they kept the class size at 50 instead of 70. I am confused... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KKruegs Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 There was an email to pending seat applicants saying that the class remained full. They said a few more seats will probably open in the next few months so there's still hope Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atsu-2016er Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Last year, we only had a wait list. FYI , at least two folks got the call this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil87lip Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Any news about people receiving acceptances? I know Midwestern just sent out their acceptances early this week, so I was wondering if anyone switched programs or heard back from this one.
