Congrats on your invite! You'll really enjoy the experience there. The students place a huge emphasis on "family," and so everyone gets along really well (which is important since you'll spend the next four years together). The city is also really nice, as well as the people (I got a genuine "good morning" from a random stranger). I would definitely recommend getting there a day or two (if possible) in advance to explore the area.
No like the beginning of the week. I think they offered a late Oct and early Nov date. Call and see if they still have more!JUST now? As in my inbox is empty so no interview? So sad
Not sureDid anyone ever figure out if they are planning on sending out more invites for pre-December interviews? I'm so impatient
call and ask!
Well I already had my interview so you guys have more of a reason to call if you really want to know haha. Good luck either way!@hellofuturedentists but you're the Pitt enthusiast/mascot in this thread! Haha
Speaking of interviews, mine is coming up.. Got any recommendations? PM me if you'd like, no need for specific questions those are all on interview feedback unless you really feel the need to share that. And if you don't want to share anything I ain't even mad atchya
Congrats! Stats, mail-out date?
They are still reviewing applications! Don't worry!
like 60
Nope
My interview wasn't today, but I thought the dental school was pretty awesome (Pittsburgh itself is also a really nice place). The students and faculty are super cool (they see themselves as belonging to a family). The interviewers were also really chill and friendly (the friendliest I've seen so far). It was a great experience.
It's in after the summer of your first year, in August, between your D1 and D2 years. You can take them up to 3 times and you must pass by the end of your second year. We have a really high first time pass rate.
I wish I would've known who you were I always wondered how you looked haha. The school was amazing man, opened up my eyes to Pitt a lot. The faculty was awesome
Who did your tour? I only saw the group with Arielle.
I was in Arielle's group! She, Maryam, and Anne were so awesome! I definitely loved the school!
Nick and Paula I believe was the females name. She kept saying she had a birthday on the 25th so if that gives you an idea of who it was.
I'm interviewing on the same day! I'll see you there
good luck to everyone!
I would highly recommend getting to Pittsburgh as early as possible. It is really a wonderful city, and so you should definitely do some exploring beforehand. The people there are also really nice. Even the students and faculty are extremely nice (they see themselves as a family). My interviewer at Pitt was super friendly and chill, and this resulted in the interview being fairly comfortable, which made me thankful because it was my first one. It was more of a relaxed conversation. I think you'll love it. Good luck!
After emailing them my requested interview date, I received a reply the following day (this was back in September).
Honestly couldn't tell. Interviewer knew where I went to undergrad, but aside from that, didn't seem to know anything else. If he did, he didn't mention it and asked stuff more along the lines of "what activities do you do?"
Half open. They have everything but you grades apparently.
