Patiently waiting! I got the email saying they received my supplemental fee back in June and then nothing. They said they don't start reviewing until August so hopefully we hear back soon!

Also got an interview today, very excited!
My status on the portal changed to invited for interview, but I didn’t get an email yet. Is this normal?

What's the first interview date?

I was there last year. Its an open file interview, so they could ask anything. When I was there it was very laid back, and conversational.
You arived there then you had a student panel/lunch. After that was a writing section, very easy prompts. Then they split you up into two groups. Each group would either do the interview first, or do the tour of the college. After that your done, it took about 4 hours for the whole event.
 
Anyone receive interview invites recently? Particularly OOS? I feel as if its been very silent lately but maybe not many are posting.
 
Anyone else's mind going crazy since the AADSAS Status tab is down/buffering??? I'm imagining ALLLLL of the dental schools logging all day today to update our status before the Thanksgiving break.... And then it crashed!!!! Maybe when they get it back up and running, we will all have that "check back Dec 2nd" status!!!!!!

One more week guys!!!

Any update’s on status changes yet? Or are the admissions staff on thanksgiving break and there won’t be one this year? I know one cycle they didn’t update until the day itself
 
How and when will they notify us about their decision? Is it going to be a 12 am AADSAS update? Or an email or a phone call during the day? Please let me know if you have any idea! Thank you
 
Angela will update AADSAS and email tomorrow morning.

Previous cycles were emailed anywhere from 5am-730am. Good Luck everyone!!
 
I haven't heard anything. In previous years they were all sent at the same time. If I haven't heard anything does that mean I'm rejected or waitlisted?
