Do you guys mean that the school rejected you without interviewing you?

 

[Future_Dentist9]

Yes

I'm so sorry!! How long after you submitted your secondary application did they send you the rejection email?

same here. My interview is now and they haven't sent me my Zoom ID yet.

 

[okss]

has anyone got rejected by now? I have. I think I wrote about my church and my church activity too strongly when asked about spirituality on the secondary application. If this week is the week LLU is notifying their rejection, then I am just one of the applicants who didn't make it to the next step.

I'm sorry to hear that, I am sure other schools will give you a shot! How did they notify you and do you mind sharing your approximate stats?

silly question but did you get this from an official site or just copy and pasted from other posters? Thank you!

Me too.. Is it usually this hard to get a hold of them? :'( How long did it take you to schedule the interview? and does anyone know what time is the best time to contact them? When does the admission office open? It has been 5 days since my invite (including weekends so more like 3 days in business days but still) and I'm getting kind of worried

 

[ADentistToBe]

Did anyone else have the status of their application change from "Invited for Interview" after they finished the interview to "Received/Application Complete" and after couple of weeks, the status changed again to "Received/Under Review"?

 

[socat_predent]

Accepted via email followed by phone call at 11am!

 

[volleyballer123]

Anyone else accepted and planning on or thinking about attending?

 

[all2me]

[justadentalstudent]

[goodluckim]

Are they still doing interviews? Anyone got accepted lately?

 

[wowilovescience]

Does anyone know if a facebook group have been created for the class of 2026? I was accepted on the 1st of Dec and can't wait to attend!

 

[aapredental]

Has anyone received a recent interview invite? Or know the number of accepted students?

 

[aapredental]

Did anyone else receive a financial aid email? I thought it’s odd since I haven’t interviewed at LLU and other schools haven’t sent this.

 

[ayellowtortuga]

Got into LLU recently, and see that this thread is pretty quiet, did anyone else get in recently? Is there a group for admitted students yet? Just want to connect with some other students.
