Uconn interview cometh! So excited!
Thank you Thank you!Congrats!!
Thank you Thank you!
You guys should all be excited. That is all.
No more invites?
It is still very early, too early to count yourself out at any school to be honest. You guys have to remember that it is still August. UConn will interview into early to mid November. Also, as they extend around 180-200 interviews because the class size will end up being around 50, not everyone who gets an interview invite is and SDN member. There are just fewer people to go around. This means that there is less information on when interview invites go out (i.e. all at once, spaced, etc.)
By Thanksgiving if you have not received an interview invite I would say you can safely consider yourself out. Until then, there are still more invites coming.
You're missing everythingI submitted AADSAS and was mailed in the second batch. Then I paid my supplemental soon after. I'm not missing anything right?
I do not know the exact numbers on this. I know in my interview group of 10 people there were two NY, one FL, and one MI. There are some FL, OH, CA and NY residents in my class but they are certainly the minority. Their admissions preference for New Englanders is quite clear, and people who are accepted as New Englanders by and large choose to attend over other schools.
Ok, my interview is scheduled for a few weeks from now so I was just wondering roughly what my chances are. Thanks!
@Scumbag_Steve if we are OOS and haven't heard back by this point from UCONN, should we count ourselves out or is it still early?
Would it be too late to apply for this school right now?
Should I be worried if I didn't get an invite yet? UConn is one of my top choices
I've heard that never works though...If you want it really really badly, consider sending the Dean of Admissions an email explaining your interest.

I'll consider it, thanks! I have also heard that they offer invites late into september. Is this also true? I just feel like I would match up to the school stats so now I'm anxiousYou may be right that my suggestion will not work- but if Geology really wants a seat there, is there really any downside to trying?
No school is going to penalize you for writing a well-thought out letter expressing genuine interest in their program.
One of my mentors says "No Ask, No Get." I sincerely believe in that philosophy. Advocate for yourself, and if things fail, so be it, but at least you tried.

Got an interview invitation yesterday 9/12 (yay!) and I got my application complete email quite a while ago, on 7/7. I'm OOS, and am also outside of New England.

If my app switched back to under review, does that mean anything?

Everyone I talk to from IL seems to have gotten this. I don't think it means anythingHow soon after "Application Complete" did yours switch back to "Under Review"? UConn has been pretty quiet lately. I hope they send more invites *fingers crossed*

thank God I was done with undergrad st Storrs before that went down. **** Luke Gatti.
I have a question for you, I am interested in applying at UCONN, but I'm not sure if I have all the LOR's they need. It says I need to submit either one letter from my university predental advisory committee... or three letters from faculty. However, I only have two letters from science professors, one from my club wrestling coach, and one from a DDS (therefore I only have two letters from university "faculty"). This late in the game, I'm not sure I want to go out seeking another letter just to apply, plus AADSAS won't allow me to update any more letters... so do you think it's even worth it to apply? Are they really that picky on my letters?If anyone has any questions fire away
Is it worth it to apply this late?Tbh I have no idea how to answer this question; I had the letters they wanted. Your best bet is to email admissions and ask.
