More and more medical schools are offering waitlist decisions to students rather than acceptances.
01:42
If you're at a medical school interview and you know communications are encouraged send a letter of intent.
02:21
Simple guidelines to get off a medical school waitlist.
02:51
October 15 are when initial acceptances go out.
03:15
The most common thing you know that students do is to write a letter of intent.
5:05
Why are these letters of intent so influential
05:43
What should you write in a letter of intent.
07:31
Do not write more than one letter of intent. Remember, the letter of intent is NOT legally binding
08:18
So paragraph number one: let the reader know when you interviewed you want to remind them about who you are.
08:31
Next, in this paragraph state clearly that the school is your top choice.
08:44
Paragraphs two and three: express why you were interested in the medical school and how you will contribute to the community.
09:18
Paragraph four: update the school on any recent accomplishments of which they might not be aware.
09:30
Paragraph five, close your letter briefly reiterating your enthusiasm for the school and expressing again that you will attend if accepted.
09:39
To whom should you address the letter
10:27
Send in additional letters of reference. So many students over the course of the application year meet new professors or mentors.
11:49
What you do over the course of that year can really help you get in to the medical school of your choice.
12:32
So most waitlist conversions to acceptances won't happen until late May even June. Okay, so we definitely find that for students.
12:44
March to June is is an especially difficult time in the medical school admissions process.
13:05
Medical students are required to only hold one medical school acceptance offer.
14:55
Follow the guidelines i've outlined here and send letters of intent.
