When asked the date "attended to" should I put how long I plan on attending(graduation month) or just the last semester attended?
 
What if I am applying early(just finished Sophomore year) and am technically scheduled to graduate in Spring 2017, but if I got accepted this cycle then I would never graduate and not finish my senior year? Should I still put May 2017 or May 2016?

I applied early as well and put my intended graduation date so last year I put May 2016 even though if I got in I would actually be in dental school May 2016

K, if you don't mind me asking did you get in applying early? I know it's really tough but worth it if I were to get in.
 
Nope but my oGPA was 3.32 at the time sGPA 3.42 and bcpGPA 3.40ish not quite sure anymore but my DAT is 23aa. I got interviews at both places I applied to which I was really surprised about because I though my GPA would rule me out as an early applicant. Ultimately I am on the alternate list at one right now at one and haven't heard back from the other. I think the whole process was worth it because I have now become a way stronger applicant because of the process this year but it also is really hard if you get interviews and don't get in. Hopefully this year I have better luck though because I know have a oGPA of 3.42 sGPA of 3.55 and bcpGPA of 3.58 so I have really done that along with a lot more extracurriculars. I recommend applying early because it never hurts to try! So in summary keep continuing to build your application in case you have to do the whole process again! Good luck!
