Does anyone know when interviews resume?
My gpa is a 3.69 overall 3.66 scienceCongrats to those who got accepted. Very happy for you all! Can those who got accepted share their STATS? DAT score, GPA, ScienceGPA, essay strategy, DAT study plan EVERYTHING. I am taking my DAT this summer and any advice is helpful and appreciated.
YES....what does that mean>?After your interview did it change from invited to interview to received/application complete?
Both great schools, congrats!! Not really sure about Pittsburgh, but I visited Temple the day before my interview and was lucky enough to have a student show me around and answer my questions. He said Temple prefers their own students for their specialty programs and if you show interest in a specialty, you will get more patients regarding that field. (Also p.s., love your username lol)Accepted at Temple and Pittsburgh. Anyone else in my boat deciding between the two?
Does anyone know the specialization rate out of temple? currently unsure if I would want to, just curious as to what the rate is if i decide to
ACCEPTED!! I'M LITERALLY SHAKING, THANK YOU BRIAN. (also p.s. my addsas didn't change to check back to dec 1 probably because i interviewed Nov 15) GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE!!
Does Temple record/upload all their lectures?
Yes they do! But attendance is still mandatory.Does Temple record/upload all their lectures like Maryland?
??anyone get a certiphi background check email for temple?
??
Temple doesn't use that. Did you read the PDF link that was included in the acceptance email? They have their own procedures for background check. (correct me if I'm wrong)
Here are the schools that use certiphi:

I am in the same boat. I also was accepted to Case so the decisions is a pretty hard one.Accepted at Temple and Pittsburgh. Anyone else in my boat deciding between the two?

I think they said you can take it after fall semester of D2, basically after you learn systems.Does anyone remember if they take part 1 of boards after D1?

Pitt Gave me some scholarship money and its closer to home, but I really like Temple's clinical focus. I am probably leaning Pitt though. If I knew 100% that I wanted to do general then I would go Temple, but I'm feeling that I want to specialize.That does sound like a pretty hard decision. All are excellent schools. What are you leaning towards?
Yeah, that is what they told me at the interviewI think they said you can take it after fall semester of D2, basically after you learn systems.
Which address did you guys use to send in your deposit? Did you specify "Attention: Terry Griffin" or just to Office of Admissions?
I put "Dental School Student" just to be brief about it, because every school requests it mostly.Anyone do the "Required Background Clearance #3 Pennsylvania Child Abuse" yet? When you sign up and do the clearance application, what did you put for Agency Name after selecting "volunteer" option?
Did you call them to figure it out or you just thought to write that instead?I put "Dental School Student" just to be brief about it, because every school requests it mostly.
Nope, just talked with friends who are D1/D2 and that's what they did.Did you call them to figure it out or you just thought to write that instead?
I called Terry and she said "Kornberg School of Dentistry" for Agency name.Nope, just talked with friends who are D1/D2 and that's what they did.
Then do that! I'm still not 100% going to Temple, so I kept it brief. I'm torn between here and Penn, so I wanted to avoid having to complete the process twice.I called Terry and she said "Kornberg School of Dentistry" for Agency name.
Wondering the same thing. I sent mine in this past Thursday, and it was received the following day, Friday. My tracking said it was received, but wondering if we'll ever get notification.How do we know if they got our deposit? ... My tracking said it was delivered monday but my check hasn't been deposited yet, uhm...
Eeek, I think I'm going to try calling on Monday, hopefully they're not on break yet!Wondering the same thing. I sent mine in this past Thursday, and it was received the following day, Friday. My tracking said it was received, but wondering if we'll ever get notification.
Awesome, let me know the deets.Eeek, I think I'm going to try calling on Monday, hopefully they're not on break yet!
Because they want UPS or FedEx. Some schools specifically specify this, (Temple does).Should I send deposit thru UPS or FedEx lol....wonder why they didn't list USPS
How do we know if they got our deposit? ... My tracking said it was delivered monday but my check hasn't been deposited yet, uhm...
I sent mine through UPS (also haven't received any confirmation from the school); UPS provides you with a tracking number you can just put into google search and it will show up.How do you track the delivery?
We are going to be invited to one made by the school/current students in late February!If I create a Facebook c/0 2021 group, will people join?
Sweet thanks! Wasn't sure how that all works hahaWe are going to be invited to one made by the school/current students in late February!
Hey fam, just called the school and Terry said for those whose deposit was received at the school already, we should get a confirmation e-mail before the end of this week! If you don't receive an e-mail and your deposit tracking was marked as received, call Terry!
No I didn't get a confirmation after scheduling it eitherHi, I just got an interview invite mail and scheduled it. Do they send a confirmation mail? Cause I did not get any email confirmation about my interview date..
