Anybody else getting a weird message when you log in to AADSAS?

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

Thank you for your interest. We’d like additional information that will help us serve you better

Program Plans
Please let us know when you plan to begin your program. This is for informational purposes only. Refer to the program listings for actual program start dates. Not all of your application data and materials may be pulled forward into the next admissions cycle due to policy and system limitations. Therefore, retain personal copies of your materials for your future reference and possible re-submission.





It was freaking me out, because it sounds like it's going to clear my application, but I never clicked on anything - why the hell would I "start a program" right now?

Anybody else get this?

I think it means when you will start dental school if you get in
 
That sounds like a reasonable interpretation, although I'd still like to know if anybody else got it.

The drop-down menu included options in the spring, summer, etc, so if they're just referring to dental school, they're not being terribly clear about it. And just the language in general is ominous; it's not ideal to log in and see all this stuff about my application data being potentially lost apropos of nothing.

Well as they said

I called AADSAS. This is correct. Good call, BioTic. It's a survey about dental school, although they may be changing the language because after looking at it, they said they anticipate more phone calls based on the ominous wording.
 
Yeah, I logged into check and I got the same message. I was actually on the phone with AADSAS (for another question) and asked the representative what it meant. He said it's just a survey to see what applicants were planning to attend "professional school" for the upcoming year, just as a basic survey.
