OOS here, waitlisted after 11/1 interview, no calls yet.
We still have a long way to go!

 

[phoenix111]

Out of state. Interviewed in Sep. no calls yet.

 

[2THDDS]

been keeping my fingers crossed with no luck..
anyone else got the call?

 

[*Garam Masala*]

SO two of us have been taking off the waitlist and offered acceptances so far.
I was not expecting to hear anything back until mid February at the latest. There's still lots of time, as some ppl are still interviewing at other schools and might decline UDM offers later.

Don't lose hope! This UDM cycle is proving to be one full of surprises. You'll get the call when you least expect it. Trust me. (I was in the shower thinking about how I should take the GRE and apply for an MPH program just in case...almost bought GRE books the day before too)

It's insanity. Beautiful, beautiful insanity

[distressstudent]

[phoenix111]

No more calls today?

 

[Dr. Toothpaste]

I continue my plan B regardless of whether i receive a call now or later. Passive waiting is not my type....

what's your plan B?

 

[d3soso]

Any hope to pre-dec interviewers? It seems like majority (except 1 in this thread) of people who got accepted in January had post dec interviews.

I have read previous posts and my understanding is:

All the seats are taken, and only a few spots will be available in case people drop their seats.
Although acceptances are going til April, the chances are low.

Correct me if I am wrong.

what's your plan B?

The only Caribbean dental school which offers courses in english, is in Trinidad and Tobago! I guess you need to reconsider your plan B!

 

[Dental2000]

Where did you get accepted?

 

[DrTPatel]

Does anyone know if the wait list started moving, I saw only about couple people got off the wait list. I know Dr. Jeffers, mentioned that those who are on the wait list are most likely gonna get in..did anyone here this too?

Yes I clearly remember that too.

 

[Avocado24]

I will be withdrawing my acceptance. Really hope it helps somebody on here out! UDM truly seems like a top notch program.

There's lots of hope for pre-december interviewers!! I interviewed on Oct 3 and I got the acceptance call from Mr. Jeffers last Monday. The deposit date from my understanding is Feb 10 so there will be a lot movement happening around that time. Just stay positive and hopeful....just have to wait this period out

Thanks for providing hope! I interviewed October 17, and I am currently placed on the wait list...the wait is killing me and making me nervous at the same time. Hopefully we will all here good news sometime soon, keep a positive headset even when it's hard to.

They will scare you about the class schedule during orientation but it's totally manageable. You have plenty of down time as long as you manage your time wisely. However, the winter semester is another story.
