I looked around and pretty sure no one has started it ... so here it is! Good luck everyone
I got back from my interview. Interview was conducted one on one by two professors. The interview did not seem that tense to me and the faculty was extremely kind. Every VCU staff member was very welcoming, friendly, smiling constantly, and warm.
Statistics that we were told: ~2500 applicants. 300 are interviewed before Dec. 1st. ~90 selected. ~60 instaters and ~30 out of staters. ~9 spots are reserved for D5 students for this cycle. Not all ~90 offers will be sent on Dec. 1st.
Does that mean post dec interviews = no chance?
My status on AADSAS changed to "invited for interview" on Sep 19. Based on your invitations and interview dates, when do you think the interview will be?

D5 students? What are they?
On AADSAS my status for VCU says Received/Under Review. Does that mean it's complete or will it change to Received/Complete? It's been that way for over a month so I'm not sure what would be missing. The scores and recs are there.

Hey so are you an out of stater? And were there other out of staters in your interview?
Hey there radical dudes
My AADSASsy says I was invited for an interview, but I haven't received any "electronic mail" confirming it. Should I give them a ring or just wait a day or so?
Thanks jmvt, I'll keep an eye out.
How is the supplemental by the way?
aadsas turned to 'invited to interview' this morning
for those of you that have already scheduled interviews, what interview dates are currently available?
Scheduled mine today and had the choice between Oct 23 and Oct 30.
mind sharing your stat/ when your apps got completed plz?
thank you thank you!
mine went from Received/Under Review to Received/Application Complete - apparently on the 25th of September - (I didn't notice this till now) But I still haven't heard a word from them..
what does that mean?
Just scheduled my interview today, AADSAS status changed 9/27, received mail invite yesterday. My interview is Oct 30th! OOS (from NY) oGPA 3.8 sGPA 3.8 DAT 19/19/19. SO nervoussss!
my aadsas status for VCU says Received/Application Complete (vs. "Under Review"). It's said this for a while. Does anyone know what this means?
Whoops, sorry for the late reply but yep I agree with blondedent; it's just a few questions and a lot of paperwork to fill out.
As for the "Application complete" vs. "Under review", I don't think it really means anything. Either way you'll have to wait it out so sit tight!
I have my interview Monday. Anyone else want to share their interview experiences? It'd be very much appreciated
Is there anyone from out west who has an interview? My status on AADSAS changed to "Invited to interview" on Sept. 27, yet I haven't received the snail mail letter that everyone has been talking about. I am really anxious to get the letter so I can schedule the interview. Did anyone else have this problem?
You arrive and park your car in the garage. Walk to the admissions office. You'll all be seated around a desk in a conference room. Wait for everyone to arrive. You will be given an introduction by Dr. Healy and then half of you will individually go to a separate room for a 30 minute interview. The other half will be writing an essay. Then the two groups switch and the latter group goes to their interviews while the former group makes their way back to the conference room to write their essay. A total of two 30 minute interviews will be conducted and some of you may be done early so you can just chat with the other interviewees. You then are given a tour. Afterwards, you shadow and assist a dental student. Then you return to the conference room and a financial aid spiel will be given to you by VCU's financial advisor. After that's over, you are all divided into groups and assigned to a dental student for lunch, Q&A, and an additional in-depth tour. You return to the conference and are finally given a closing word by Dr. Healy. You pick up a $2.00 parking voucher on your way out at the adjacent hospital. The end.
You get out by 2:30pm at the latest. On my day, our group got out by 2pm because someone had a flight to catch at 4pm.Anyone know about what time the interview is supposed to end? Trying to book my flight.
