AEGD University of Rochester Interview for 2011
- Thread starter implant10
- Start date
I sent an email to Ms. Marilyn Foy. She told me that some selections have been made and the next people selected are gonna receive an email or a phone call. A rejection letter is gonna be send to the others. She also said that wouldn't be until late february! We just have to wait now...
Does it mean that those people selected already now they are accepted?
Thanks for the info!
It means that if received an email or a phone call you are in. But they are still choosing the others selected.
Doctor Br:
Would it be possible for you to post Ms. Foy's email response? Or if it contains private communications, could you please post just the section discussing what you posted? Thanks

So, wait,wait wait. If you get an email or a phone call during the next couple of weeks, great. If not, the lovely rejection letter at the end of the month....
Thank you for sharing... but would you mind to tell us who are the other seven? From where do you know them? Thank you...
so far I only heard of one guy, and he told me he doesn't know you so I guess the count is up to 9!! How many spots are there??

How can 8 candidates accepted to the program know each other?
yeah its a long shot... unless theyre all from the same batch and swapped emails... which is highly unlikely.
In any case 2 more weeks to go

Thanks for the info, Olley. Could you post your stats to see how we compare, especially if we want to improve our chances for acceptance next year? Much obliged - cheers.

So far only one person who got accepted posted here. Please people, keep us informed of what is going on.
Please, I know maybe this it a little bit early, but for those who don't live in the U.S., If accepted, are you planning to live 2 years in Rochester only with your savings or do you have another economic plan?

There is no way of knowing it. Over Eastman they say they're not done yet. On the other hand, people say they already got responses.
The only thing left is to wait, wait and wait
I think the University has staggered its acceptance process. That is, I believe it might have offered spots to its top choices. The University will then wait to see how many of those people accept those offers before it sends out additional offers. It might be a way for the University to avoid accepting more applicants than it has room for in the program.
Olley, if you are reading, you seem to be the only person involved with this discussion board who has been accepted thus far. And you know others who have been accepted. Perhaps you could provide us with your (and, if available, your friends') details (NBE?, TOFEL?, years of practice?, dental school ranking/grades?) in order for the rest of us to use your success as a gauge for our potential admission. I think it would be greatly appreciated by all.
Thanks.

Nope
Nothing here.
Does anyone have information about themselves or other people who have been accepted, such as their NBE? TOEFL? Ranking/GPA? etc.?
Thanks
CAN SOMEBODY GIVE ME MARILYN FOY'S EMAIL ADDRESS PLEASE??
I have been trying to call her but she doesn't answer the phone. I want to apply to this AEGD program for next year...
I have applied to Uconn for 2011 and was not accepted 🙁

Her email is [email protected]
Keep in mind that it may be too early to ask her about the next year, she's still in the new residents decisions issue. Visit the website for 2011 updates.
Also, Uconn offers stipend for Foreign Trained Dentists, Rochester doesn't, and it's a 2 year progarm for FTD only (not 1 year).
Its over guys..looks like they are finished with the selections....those who are in pls post ur status n brief detail of CV.so we can compare ourselveswith ur status n we can improve our resume.
So I guess thats it. Where did u hear the final selection was made?
Keep a positive mental attitude! Good luck and cheers.

I just don't understand why we had a lot of people posting before, and suddenly, only a few (not saying the same people) post now looking for updates. Unless all the people who got acceptance letters do not participate on the forum (very unlikely). 👎 It is very frustrating not knowing anything.

Hey Dazzler thanks a lot for the info! In any case if I read this right, u can choose one of the thee paths for masters programs and take them in tamdem with the AEGD or any other of the certificate paths at Rochester. Quite interesting! Am I correct in thinking that the same pool of residents will be used for this program or is it a different pool? That makes me wanna go to EDC EVEN MORE! Hope is back!!!

@mfonsec1> Ur welcome 🙂...Yes you can choose any residency with any path you like..isnt that interesting??? well i think they select from the same pool but off course you need to submit your application for master's as well as I did and let Marilyn Foy know about it...You never know what comes next...Happy that you found your hope back...Gud Luck!!
Yes it's the same pool. In fact I applied only for the AEGD program (which is only 2 year nor 1 nor 3) but after the first 2 interviews they told me to wait a couple minutes to have a talk with the Dr. in charge of the Master program because in the interview with AEGD director I told him about my interest in teaching.
After 15 min I then spoke to Dr. in charge of the Master but I didn't have the economic means to do it (there is no stipend).
