I got an acceptance!
I think they are already done for first round. Any update?They already sent all of the accepted people today? or still have a plan to send this week?
My status is "none" and didn't receive a waitlist email from UNLV.
Let's stay hopeful!
When was your interview? Mine still "none" also.still "none" status
You should give them a call to see what they say. My interview was mid of Nov which was pretty late.Maybe mid-September. In interview, they said it was the first day of the interview
I don't think one was actually set up yet. I know there have been past ones.is there a UNLV school of dental medicine class of 2024 or even 2023 facebook page?
Most people live in Henderson or Summerlin areas. Pretty cheap when you rent out a place.Where do most students live? What's the typical rent like? Is it possible to get a place right next to campus and do you recommend doing this?
If you don’t mind me asking where did you choose to go instead?I decline my offer this morning. I hope one of you guys get it. Good luck!
I decided to go to Colorado. It was a really hard decision since I wanted to do underserve dentistry service and UNLV seems to have earlier community service opportunities. But, I missed having four seasons, I wanted to be closer to my old friends and family, and the colorado tuition was a bit cheaper. UNLV is still an amazing school.If you don’t mind me asking where did you choose to go instead?
Are you NV or another state? Just curiousDid anyone else not get their acceptance package yet? I'm still waiting on mine in order to be able to put down the deposit. Could someone let me know what their package contained so I know what to expect? Thanks!
I'm actually an international applicant! (Canadian)Are you NV or another state? Just curious
Right now it's the only acceptance I have but if I we're to move off the waitlist for another school I would probably reconsider. Sure! My stats were about a 3.5 GPA and 24 AA/ 20 PAT/ 20 TSUNLV is your top choice? and if you don't mind, can you share your stat?
It is a large envelope with Statement of Intent, Technical Standards, ocular exam, immunization, background check, acceptance letter, and a checklist.Did anyone else not get their acceptance package yet?

Oh okay cool thanks for the response! Did you also have to fill out the background check sent via email? Does UNLV require both? Thanks!It is a large envelope with Statement of Intent, Technical Standards, ocular exam, immunization, background check, acceptance letter, and a checklist.
The background check is online, the paper in the mail is just a letter reminding you to do it online. You welcome!Oh okay cool thanks for the response! Did you also have to fill out the background check sent via email? Does UNLV require both? Thanks!
Do you guys know if they have offer interviews in Jan and Feb?
I have an interview on Jan 10Do you guys know if they have offer interviews in Jan and Feb?
i am in the same position as you! correct me if I'm wrong but I think UNLV is significantly cheaper than UW when you consider that you can get in-state tuition after the 1st year so you would gain tremendous cost benefit there. I've been researching a lot about the life outside vegas and I've been learning that it can be quite luxurious for cheap especially in areas like summerlin!Those who are planning to attend or would like to attend UNLV what are your top reasons?
I’m having a bit of trouble deciding between UNLV and the UW RIDE program (IS). The costs are similar, and UNLV would actually be a bit cheaper especially when factoring in Seattle rent. Additionally my SO, who will be moving with me is a Finance major, and it sounds like there would be good job opportunities for him there.
How is the cost of living in Vegas? What kind of rent should I expect?
What is life like, aka what is there to do outside of the strip, etc?
Any reasons for hesitation in attending UNLV?
Thank you in advance for any replies, it’s just such a big decision (as I know you all understand)

I haven't yet, but greatly leaning to UNLV due to cost / living being a huge saver while having a solid clinical program.. hard to pass upWell it’s about ~ 10k cheaper overall (compared to IS UW) in just tuition/mandatory fees after looking at 1st year OOS and the rest as IS tuition. The more I look into I think it’ll be a good fit. I have a sheltie with a lot of fur, so I was worried about her and the heat, but I think it’ll be fine with early morning/later walks during summer.
Have you committed to a school yet?

Hey also strongly leaning towards UNLV for those same reasons (I'm an east coaster). What kinds of dwellings and rents are you seeing in summerlin? And what is the commute like to school from the places you're looking at? Are there apartments near the school? Think I would like to live closer to campus for the first two years.
Are you able to PM me?
added you to the convoLol I wanna get in on this . Wondering about those as well
when did you submit your application?Hi guys! I just received interview invitation for 1/10 and 1/31. Can anyone gives me insight of what type of question they ask and stress level? By attending 1/31 will I be significantly disadvantaged?
Well submited like September but did not submit last letter til December (didnt' know i needed 3 letters from professors. Had 3 total but 2 from professors)when did you submit your application?

I got the interview invite as well. Is it worth to pay $500 more for a flight ticket to attend the interview on 1/10? The flight ticket is cheaper for 1/31.Hi guys!

I applied in August. With 2 science professor, 1 dentist, 1 advisor. But I haven't heard anything. Btw the website says "If the school does not have a committee, an applicant must submit four individual letters of evaluation (at least 2 from science professors). A letter from a dentist for whom the applicant has worked or shadowed is required in both cases".Well submited like September but did not submit last letter til December (didnt' know i needed 3 letters from professors. Had 3 total but 2 from professors)
Interview is very laid back and they make you feel welcomed there.Hi guys! I just received interview invitation for 1/10 and 1/31. Can anyone gives me insight of what type of question they ask and stress level? By attending 1/31 will I be significantly disadvantaged?
Good chance some ppl will drop by March for other schoolsheard today that there were about 80 deposits already in... this seems significantly higher than previous years from what I've seen, but not too sure. can anyone confirm? committee should be meeting early february. either way, I'm just hoping for the best!

So no more interviews will be sent out?I called this past week. They’re meeting on Jan 15th and acceptances will be sent starting the next day.
My friend said the dean of admissions had said that on his interview day 1/10.where did you find out that 80 deposits have been made?
My friend who interviewed on 1/10 said they told the applicants they were supposed to meet next week, but had to cancel it. They said they would meet first week of February insteadI called this past week. They’re meeting on Jan 15th and acceptances will be sent starting the next day.
