Hey Raj:

Its Robert, your buddy from the interview on Saturday. I was accepted as well so it looks like I'll be joining you for the next four years. 👍 Or should it be more like 😱 Well either way, congrats man, good ****, (apparently from the asterisks, you arent aloud to cus on this site but oh well) and I'm sure I'll be talking to you sooner than later.

McDentist

P.S. McDentist is just a nickname that dudes on the football team gave me at Mount if you were wondering why the hell I was referring to myself as McDentist. My last name is McDavid, so one day a dude called me McDentist, and there it was. Later
 
Dentalguy and McDentist19, where are you guys from?
 
Did anyone out of state get a denial from Ohio State?
 
danieldoc, I am from Pickerington, Ohio which is a sub-urb of Columbus located about 10 miles Southeast of the city limits. It takes me roughly 20-30 mins to get to the dental school from my house if you are infact an out-of-stater and not familiar with the Columbus area. Good Luck with the rest of the interview process! :luck:

I think we need to get some of us OHioans together for a little celebration. Do you concur, dentalguy, mcdentist? May aswell start boozing now because next year its only going to get rough.

Hey Utahdent and ddsnp,

Im not sure about this but I asked Sunny about how many people they had accepted in and out of state so far (this was on Saturday Jan 7 interview date) and she had told me that roughly 25 in and 25 out of state applicants were already accepted at that point. I know that the numbers usually break down to about 20 out of state students and 80 in state students give or take a few from each group that get in. So I wouldnt get too down about you not getting into OSU because there out of state quota has most likely been met already. You guys have impecable stats, so I wouldnt worry too much about getting in elsewhere. Good luck! :luck:

McDentist

P.S. Yes Raj I would concur 👍

Congrats on the acceptance, I have family that live in Galion and Lexington, so I know exacltly where abouts you are coming from. Where did you go for undergrad, OSU??? Later

McDentist
 
if you guys don't mind (the ones who got accepted into OSU) could you post your DAT scores and GPA's so I can have an idea of getting into OSU?
 
Are you saying that 25 out of staters have made their deposit or just that 25 have been accepted.

Yes, that is basically what the email they sent me said. At frist I just saw the denial on AADSAS, but today I received an email explaining in the nicest way possible that out of state seats are filled. Thanks for the encouragement. Congrats on OSU and have fun.
 
When I spoke with Sunny yesterday she said that they still hadn't heard back from many of the people who they had extended acceptances to. Did you interview at Ohio State?
 
Everyone who got in congrats.

Everyone who got denied, stick with it, its not the be all and end all. Its worth the wait, just rememeber get ur app in early and talk with admissions. G-luck

To be honest, I was really worried about getting into OSU because I felt that my grades sucked, and thats what they told me in my interview, but I had so many hours of observation (100+) and I interviewed very well and they told me that at the interview....I did poorly my first and second year in undergrad, and improved greatly in my junior, senior and fifth year of football semesters when i averaged a 3.7 over those five semesters...It also didnt hurt that I was an in state applicant amongst other things...I see that you are from the Nasty Nati so that will be huge for you when going through the interview process...

Overall GPA 3.35
Science GPA 3.05
DAT AA 18.5 TS 18 PAT 19

Good Luck with everything!!! :luck:

Thanks for the encouragment man. Unfortunately, I recieved a rejection email yesterday...I'm salty as hell. I even did the Summer Dental Prep program at OSU and I guess still didn't help. I'll have to try again next cycle.
 
I can't decided between Case and OSU.. and advice!?? I am from Cleveland, and case has much better Clinics and dentsims... but OSU is sooooo much cheaper... I was very impressed with both staffs and interviews! any help would be great!
 
Number one reason to go to OSU over CASE.....




FOOTBALL!!!!!!!!!! Go Bucks 👍

Hello fellow bucks,


How many seats are left in this years class. I have a friend interviewing on the 28th and wanted to know how many acceptances were given out for out interview on Jan 8th.
 
Hi Everyone!
I'm new to SDN and going to The Ohio State University College of Dentistry Class of 2010! I've been apartment shopping, so if anyone needs any info let me know! What is everyone doing to prep before school starts? Studying, nothing, partying, finishing up degrees??
 
Hows parking at OSU? Any secrets to share?

Yea Im finishing my Masters and taking anatomy.....yea if you have any info on where to live please let me know......
 
Where did you find your Apartment at? I current live at The Meridian on West 5th, really nice and a pretty good deal for 2 bedroom, single is a little steep. Looking for a condo i think, i've already spent 4yrs in apartment rent in Columbus, i dont really want to spend 4yr more.

Parking C pass is pretty efficent for $180/yr there is parking about 50ft from the dental school. Another Option is Parking Garage Pass which is given on a lottery bases and cost about $500+ dollars.

Any ?'s

Hey Ohio Staters

I'm thinking about what to do also. For those who are already out there, I'd also like to know about good places to stay. I'd like to get into a condo, but I'm also considering rent, if they have some reasonable places for under $600/mo. Also, is anybody thinking of doing the PhD combined degree?
 
I lived on campus, off high street, and with family the past three years at OSU. Living off campus is a little cheaper but it honestly gets scary. Stay away from south campus, ie past the South Campus Gateway. North Campus is pretty nice, but if you want to feel completely safe i would live in campus dorms . There are also some family oriented living called Buckeye Village. If all of the previous areas are walking distance to campus. These next involve driving to school and parking on either West Campus or C-Parking. I personally did West Campus Parking about 65 dollars, and the buses drop you right off in front of Postle Hall! West of OSU are some NICER condos and apts. Jefferson commons is a little expensive but better housing. Condos around West Campus and the Upper Arlington area are more expensive to buy,but the turn around time to sell is fast, so you could sell very easily when done with dental school. You can also rent some of these condos. Bethle Rd. has alot of condos and apts. but it is about a 10-15 minute drive to campus. Hope this helps. let me know if any more ?'s

Go Bucks!

No, I know him though. Cool dude. do you know if he decided on OSU over louisville? I was in a bunch of his classes and his interview was the same day as mine.

I think hes going to OSU, but not for certain. Yeah, hes good guy
 
dentalguy said:
any one know how full our class is?

i'm guessing 50 from the first section then 40 from our interview(7th Jan) subtract that from 104.

Thats my best guess +/- say 10
 
I'm moving to Gahanna, which is by Easton Mall and about 15-20 min from OSU. It's really nice. My 2 br place is $529/month and includes water.
They are pet-friendly, there's a pool, small fitness center, tanning salon(?) and laundry on-site. Love it!
 
Tanning Salon? I'm there! I personally like the orange umpa lumpa look when it comes to my skin. But, I usually end up burning.

That's perfect, the burnt look = so hot right now. Besides the umpa lumpa look is sooo last year. And i heard that Ohio salons are much better than Florida rays 🙄
 
They were trying to sell the tanning salon. I said "Do I look like I go tanning?"
Anyway, its a nice place. Moving in 2 weeks! I'm done with Kent State University!!!

Not that it really matters since I have signed my lease, but does anyone know how safe Chambers road is off of Kenny Road?
