AEGD Eastman Program starting June 2010

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.

Lol thnx blissonearth fr dat vital info
 
Oh guys c'mon.. share the news!! Any1 who got accepted- pls post in batch of interview,
date of acceptance
and mode of acceptance

Guys,
I am not sure if this helps but nevertheless, I finally decided to join SDN and post a message. I interviewed at Eastman in Oct (I am sure I talked to a few of you while waiting in that crowded room).

Anyway, I got a call from Marilyn Foy last week, and she informed me that I have been accepted into the program for Dec 2010. She also informed me that she will be on vacation and an official letter will be mailed to me sometime in January.

I am new to SDN (may be because I haven't been a student in a long time) and may not fully understand SDN ethics (if there are any) or religiously post messages but I am certainly open and willing to indulge in mutually beneficial interactions with all of you.

Cheers and good luck 👍

Congratulations to you!
 
A modern man- CONGRATS!! that is awesome news.!!! But Dec 2010??
Oh well anyways congrats!!
are u an international dentist?
 
Thank you confused tooth and Dr. Fairy.

Yes, I am an international dentist (but I have been away from dentistry for a few years now).

And yes, Dec 2010. I checked with her regarding July 2010 but I was told that the dates are decided by the education admin. at Eastman. Dec 2010 actually works out better for me anyway, so no complaints there.
 
If u don mind can u post in ur stats? And ur experience.. so that atleast we can estimate our loss!! Thnx!
 
TOEFL-CBT 293 (old format; was out of 300)
GPA 3.8
NBDE - not taken Part I or II yet
Research - hold a PhD from US; several years of experience in research (>10 publications as first or senior author) in high-impact journals.

Hope this helps.
 
Congrats, Modern man.

I told you once you earned PhD, they will take you. I think I learned my lesson not to apply in any program at eastman because I never had Master's or PhD or any experience in research.

Tumkam also got accepted for december. I knew her but she never told me, I knew from someone else.
 
Well!!! Modern man's stats speak for themselves!! It was obvious to select u! All d best!
 
Is Tumkam been selected for Dec 2010 too?
So, who is in the June batch, does anybody know?
 
I just got email from her saying she got accepted. I am so happy for her.

She also finished her master and now is finishing her 3 researches.
 
Congragulations to all who got accepted, nothing for me yet.........
 
Are all the accepted candidates have been informed? and Is there any hope for the remaining uninformed candidates?
And wts the deal about dec 2010 and july 2010 batch ??
I thought all the accepted candidates start in july. is it the first time that they are doing this?

would someone like to share his/her knowledge on these issues.
thanks

"she mailed last week" she 's still waiting for the admin. whatever they will give her to mail out again... she said i can call her again next week to update my application...hope thats help.:idea:
 
Oh matalin..
does tht mean that there is still a chance for rejection letters???? 😕🙁

Yes, that is what it sounds like. I do not think they have sent out all the rejection letters (not that I am hoping for one). But they will have a few more to send out depending upon, who is on the wait list...these are just my thoughts, I do not know for sure.

Matalin6 last question for today - What do you mean by "update my application?" are you referring to - updating your application status (for your self) or do all of us have to call and ask to find out if we are in or out? Like the way we did for setting up appointments 😀
 
Lol.. confused tooth, i think matalin meant that she could call next week to knw the status of her admission.. and dat its nt a compulsion for everyone!!
But yes I dread a secnd list of rejections!!!

"My" as in myself (LOL) I dont want to confused anybody though,:laugh: but you can personally call Ms. Foy if you want to update your status, by the way Dr. fairy iam a HE. Thanks...
 
Lol.. matalin.. my sincere apologies... wid all these screen names gender mistakes are common i guess...loll.. Anywayz all d best..
 
Yes more rejections are coming out, let us cross our fingers.
 
Hi , what does it mean to update your status, I am confuse;;;;;;;;;;;;
 
what he meant to say was: "update of his/hers status"
 
It simply means that u cn call up mrs. Foyfor an update on ur status ofadmission- whether ur in or out or on waitin list
 
Did anybody hear anything this week/call Ms. Foy recently, any updates.
It's such an uneasy feeling being in this limbo
 
I agree confused tooth. Btw did u tryn reachn her?
 
I tried to call, but no one answers;;;;;;;;;;;
Waiting is so hard;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
