**** The Official UMKC Class of 2019 Interview/Acceptance Thread ****

[kvpv2c]

Do they still call if you dont get accepted or are wait-listed?

Members don't see this ad.

 

[A2Paredes]

I don't think so, only call people that got accepted

 

[krdeuce]

I don't think so, only call people that got accepted

They said they'd call everyone accepted, rejected and waitlisted

 

[A2Paredes]

Really? Because I was asking that when I got interviewed and they said you either get a call or you don't. If you don't then you'll get mail saying you got rejected.

Yeah when I interviewed Wes said they'd let us know our status one way or another

 

[Rachlog]

Yeah, I'm pretty sure you only get the call if you are accepted.

 

[kvpv2c]

I thought they only call if you get accepted.. I don't want a rejection call

 

[A2Paredes]

Yeah I don't think they want to deal with that either

 

[krdeuce]

Yeah I don't think they want to deal with that either

Didn't say it was ideal, just relaying the message. UMKC definitely gave us the most useful thing of any dental schools when they gave us that stress bail

Yeah I don't think they want to deliver bad news to excited students. That's why I am pretty sure only accepted students get a call.

 

[SM555]

[Tedic]

Denied acceptance. I hope one of you get in!

 

[A2Paredes]

Anybody got any scholarships? If so, how much? Just wondering if they offer any

 

[krdeuce]

Anybody got any scholarships? If so, how much? Just wondering if they offer any

I got one, $6,000/year for 4 years

 

[A2Paredes]

6k for each year?

 

[krdeuce]

6k for each year?

Yeah so $24,000 total, I was shocked I got a scholarship like that haha

 

[graydds]

I received the 6K/yr up to 24K scholly as well.

 

[Mango Magic]

I'm guessing if anyone was going to get any scholarships, they would have been notified already? Or is that later??

 

[graydds]

The scholarship I received came in the acceptance envelope through the mail.

 

[Mango Magic]

I guess I'm S.O.L. then

 

[graydds]

I guess I'm S.O.L. then

I'm sure there will be more opportunities. Will find out a lot more on February 27th!! Congrats on acceptance!

 

[futuredoc2019dds]

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but how did you guys find out about February 27th? Hahaha, I thought the details would be in my acceptance package but it wasn't

 

[graydds]

It was mentioned in the acceptance email, last paragraph I think.

 

[Ed0812]

Also got the 6k/ semester scholarship & another one for 5k for the first yr. Just found these in the mail.

 

[futuredoc2019dds]

It was mentioned in the acceptance email, last paragraph I think.

Was the email sent to you after you confirmed your intent to attend to Wes? I never got an acceptance email (just the call and letter), but I also haven't heard back from Wes since emailing my intent to attend UMKC in the fall.

 

[Mango Magic]

I got an email, letter, and a phone call from Wes all on Monday.

The email was sent to me on Monday around 1pm. It was just an email reiterating what the phone call said, noting the Feb. 27th event at the end of the email.

 

[jjang1]

no more chance to get interviewed?
anybody knows that how many seats they have now?

 

[futuredoc2019dds]

They told me that they fill up 90% of their class by December 1st. They still interview people in January, but not much (most of them if not all are Missouri residents). I would assume that their whole class would be filled by the end of February given that they have a welcome reception for the incoming class scheduled then.

 

[good'ole302]

Little late to post, but I also received an acceptance call on Dec. 1st.

Looking forward to meeting ya'll on 2/27
