Hello I am worried that I have not received any interviews and its January. I submitted my application 8/30. I have over 150 dental volunteer hours, with other extracurricular activities. My g.p.a is 3.2 with DAT 20 TS 21 PAT 22. I am currently in the Masters program at MWU. Fall semester I got a 3.6. I know I will have two interviews at both MWU but I don't feel safe knowing other schools did not invite me for interview 🙁. Any advice?
 
This time last year I had not yet heard from the school I am now attending. I think I actually received the most invites in January so keep up hope. Keep doing as well or better in your Master's program. What else can you do at this point?

Yes but I would have probably heard something right now to sign up for an interview, if I was to interview this month. I'm losing hope 🙁 this is my second cycle.

Interview offers are sent throughout the spring to some schools. I had offers come in the entire month of January and 1 in Feb and 1 in March. Just because you haven't heard anything yet does not mean you won't hear anything. In the meantime keep doing well in your masters and if you don't get in this year you will be in great shape next year.
 
I as well have got rejected from a few schools but 4 schools have not rejected me yet.. Does potentially mean I could possibly get an interview in jan/ feb or should I just accept that I'm not getting in?

Depends on when you applied, maybe? I haven't heard a thing from 5 schools, and I applied mid-July. I was actually never listed as "under review" at one of the schools. So I take the silence as silent rejections for now.
 
Keep your head up high!

I mean, yea maybe you didn't hear from any other schools, but even snagging an interview at either of the MWUs is a big deal!

Don't give up just yet.

I have most of the other schools put me under review...does that mean I am still not rejected? I emailed most of them and one got back to me saying, that they are still reviewing my app for a possible interview. But I sent my app in August.

I do not THINK anything means a rejection unless you hear something solid. I cannot be so sure though!

I have yet to hear back from 4 schools, too! 3 of them are on the portal and says "App under review" or whatever. NYU has not said a word, either.
