I'm second batch and received an email from them on July 8th that they had received my supplemental and then I didn't hear anything from them again... until September 3rd when they invited me for an interview. Sometimes no news is good news :), keeping my fingers crossed for you :xf:

Any news anyone? My supplemental was received and complete September 3.
 
Can anybody who had his/her interview already at this school to shed some light on what the MMI are. Reading posts from last year it seems like they weren't following this method of interview.

Don't worry about the MMI. It was pretty fun, and I liken it to speed dating. The interview process was pretty cool, and well done. There's nothing to worry about and you'll have a blast.

Thanks for your response, but what type of questions are in the mini interviews. Are they scenarios where you have to discuss them or more questions about yourself, and how many interviews are.

For the sake of what was said during the interview about "not discussing to anyone about what was asked at the interview", no one please respond to this. I hate to be that person, but it gives an advantage to those who interview at later dates an advantage over those who interviewed earlier.

Took the words right out of my mouth. I was ambiguous on purpose when asked because I completely agree with you. It's really not that hard for yourself. Thank you for posting this.

Could you tell me how long the MMI lasted?

Nice! I land at 1 p.m. I've never had lobster, but I was told that Maine lobster is incredible and would be a great first time to have it.
 
I'm going this Friday but the forecast is rain all 4 days I'm there.... I guess I just gotta stay indoors and stuff myself.

Why spend three nights for a dental school interview?

The flight times were awful and tickets were expensive if wanted to stay there just 1 day. From what I remember, the arrival time was like 12:40am on the day of the interview.

The price of the flight dropped by significantly by flying to Boston and taking a coach bus to Portland instead.

So, I just decided to stay a few more days for similar cost. It'll be a nice few days before the interview to go sight-seeing and tour the area that might become my home for the next 4 years.
Since I'll be there a few days prior to the interview, it'll hopefully prevent any delays and I won't have fatigue from the flight/ lack of sleep.

Has anyone from Canada got supplemental yet? I received an email saying that they received everything, but haven't got supplemental yet... I don't want to call and bother them in case they don't plan to invite me for an interview :'( ...
 
Update after flying back:

The interview was amazing. I loved everything about UNE. I loved the faculty there and the school's philosophy/policies.

And I enjoyed Maine a lot while I was there. If you have time, I recommend visiting Portland Head Light. There are lots of great restaurants to go to. I don't think I can enjoy seafood anywhere else anymore.

I took thousands of pictures there because everything looked so nice :)

Thanks! I think the whole environment really helped calm down the anxiety I had. People there were very friendly and accommodating.

There were multiple people from Canada in my interview group so they have sent supplementals to our friends in the Great White North.

If you're planning on staying there over the weekend, there's a lot of things to do in Maine.

Places I went to:

Sight-seeing: Portland Head Light, Bug Light, Portland Art Museum (it was free on Friday Evening), Portland Observatory, Back Cove/ Eastern Promenade Trails, Downtown/ Old Port, DeLorme Map Store (if going to see a giant globe of Earth is your kind of thing to do lol, it's also far away).

Food: Fisherman's Grill, Duckfat, Bite into Maine, Gorgeous Gelato (hilarious owner xD), 3Buoy's Seafood Shanty & Grille, and Street & Co.

If you need rental car, make sure you get free pickup/ drop off. I used Enterprise and they were very nice.. weekend special for $72/4 days and gave me a free upgrade to a better car. I stayed at Super 8 and their service was great. They let me use their refrigerator and microwave.. overall very friendly service from every place I went to.

Hey, I'll be flying there on Sunday morning and do the touristy/relaxing that day. There were no flights leaving after the interview, so I opted to stay one more night.

The only thing that I have for sure, is the flight. I'm in the process of getting a room/car without breaking the bank, lol.

Definitely a good idea to tour/relax before the interview!
