I’ve heard they’re pretty late like August/September for interviews.

Even to pay the secondary fee or confirm they received the application?

Congrats! What were your stats if you don't mind me asking?

 

[aspiringdentist776]

Did you smile in your passport style photo? I’m seeing in some places a passport style photo requires that your mouth is closed.

I don’t think they will make a big deal out of it either way. I’d say don’t worry about it!

Got an interview invite last week for October, Today got an email changing date to January
Has this ever happen to anyone? Do schools know if you get other interview invites?

Same thing happened to me. All my other interviews are in October so it's weird they would push it back so far. Have you contacted them to ask why they have done this.

Has anyone heard anything from MUSC? How were your interviews if you had them?

 

[toothgirl12]

Any updates from them?

 

[aspiringdentist776]

Anyone heard from them?

 

[dentalstudent129920]

Anyone heard from them?

no not yet

 

[dmdnewb]

no not yet

Haven't heard anything either. I'm IS.
Kind of makes me nervous because they usually send out acceptances at around 10 AM according to the 2026 sdn forums.

[yogamidnadj]

I haven’t heard anything back from MUSC - not even a rejection yet. Is there still a chance I may get an after-Dec interview??

I’ve heard they do interviews all the way up till Feb/March, I’m wishing you the best!

 

[fuonguyen92]

Yes, I heard back it was pretty late though for them about 1pm.

I also interviewed with MUSC back to October but still haven't heard anything back. May I ask what your stats are?

 

[yogamidnadj]

That’s great news! Thank you for the encouragement!

 

[Mytoothbetold]

Has anyone had any updates on interviews/acceptances/rejections? I feel like this is one of a few threads where it's like a dead end

 

[finnster]

Nothing here

 

[yogamidnadj]

I have not heard a peep! No interview invites. I have reached out twice to admissions and they just say they are still reviewing my application.

 

[vibras]

Rejected w/o interview!

 

[yogamidnadj]

Rejected w/o interview!

Same. I just received my rejection email. No interview here either. They said this was one of their most competitive cycles yet, with over 1,400 applications and only 80 seats.

 

[predentkid17]

Rejected w/o interview!

same

 

[dentalstud99]

[finnster]

I had an interview a month ago and haven’t heard back

 

[dentalstudent129920]

When did you get on alternate list? I still haven’t heard back

 

[Predent2023!]

Accepted on 2/16 through email!

 

[teeth4117]

Accepted In January.

I was wondering if there was a possibility of making a GC for the class of 2027. I just wanted to get some form of communication started between us all.
