AADSAS Application delayed

[DesiDentist]

Man I am so upset!!

I just checked <a href="http://www.adea.org" target="_blank">www.adea.org</a> and they delayed the online release to June 3rd, originally it should have been released tomorrow. Man that bites.

Did they do that last year as well??

Yup, it happened last year as well!! I think it happens every year!! Last year, I even had problems logging on after I created a file!! Talking about shi#ting your pants!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="eek.gif" /> Expect some bugs. I also looked at the ADEA site, looks like for 2003, you guys will have some cool new features!!

hey desidentist..i love that avatar image..that is tight..did you find it on sikh.net?
in regards to the app...they do take forever..just make sure to have all your stuff ready to type in and send off....i did it the first nite(june 1st) that the apps were available on line...it def helps to do the app as early as possible...good luck

Yeah, it stinks that it won't be available until June 3, but the InfoSource webpage will make up for all of it! Trust me -- that is one cool feature.

For those who aren't up to speed on InfoSource, it will allow the applicant to view the status of their application at each school they have applied to, all from one webpage. That means it won't be necessary to call schools or check multiple web pages -- we can do it all from the same page!

I have an inside scoop on this project, so let me know if you have any questions.

Also, along with the cool new AADSAS features comes a 60% increase in fees. Get ready to shell out the first of a long line of $$!

Hey ItsGavinC:

Since you know some "insider" stuff about AADSAS is the application the same as last year? I was smart and I printed the entire application. To get a head start I wanted to fill it out before hand. Are there any new questions on there? Please.. Please any information would be helpful.

Sonigee:

Thanks for appreciating my avatar image. I got it off some sikh site and saved it. Any other words of advice would be helpful if you have any. I feel like the world is collapsing around me. Yikes.

The waiting game begins. Even before we're waiting (for application processing, interviews, and acceptances), we're waiting.

Gavin:

Do you happen to know exactly which schools will be participating in the AADSAS application service for 2003?

 

[vixen]

i'm actually kinda happy about the delay because I have finals NEXT week, so I could use the time. Now I feel like we're all on the same level...I just hope I get all my 7 <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="eek.gif" /> transcripts to aadsas on time!

Good luck everyone!

So that means the earliest we can apply is in mid june????
I guess that is good for some like me who have NOTHING ready!

DesiDentist: The application shouldn't change much. If you formulate your answers to the 2002 application and are already familiar with the online process, the 2003 app. should be a piece of cake for you (of course, it's already pretty simple).

smile_doctor: As far as I know, their are 54 participating dental schools for the 2003 AADSAS. InfoSource will only have about half of the dental schools participating this year due to it being a beta test year. The 2003 AADSAS schools are:
