Did anyone from central or pacific time zone make it? If not then it’s probably just the eastern and international people

Just had my status change to "check back on December 15th" as well

 

[black_chocolate]

My status changed to "Check back on December 15.", but no call and email as well 🙁(

 

[dentist2499]

I saw someone on Facebook that stated that they called nova and asked what it meant that our status on AADSAS changed but no email/phone call and apparently they were told that means we are on the waitlist. not sure why we are not being contacted about that though. seems weird.

I called them and asked and was told that I am on review and was surprised when I said I had my interview two months ago. So I don't know if I believe the waitlist thing

So I'm assuming NOVA is going to use the high hold/low hold waitlist system again this year? I'm guessing we will know which group we will fall in when we receive our physical mail, or electronic email...

what's this system? can you explain it please

 

[Broccolidmd]

what's this system? can you explain it please

When they send you the waitlist letter they tell whether you are high-hold or low-hold. High-hold means you are somewhere at the top of the waitlist to get the next available seat. Low-hold means you are somewhere lower.

 

[dr.zab]

has anyone received their waitlist letter/ email yet?

 

[hopeful_dentist801]

Does anyone have the actual cost breakdown for nova?

 

[bluebear123]

Did anyone who was accepted receive a letter in the mail yet?

 

[hieto99]

the toughest interviews are the ones you felt went really well and the interviewer looked really receptive to your responses as well. I interviewed back in Sept (virtually) with Dr. Armini and I felt confident after it! Was excited when I saw my status change to "check back Dec 15" (yesterday around 10 am) cause I thought that was the golden sign for acceptance.

It says waitlist now hahahah

Best of luck everyone!

Yup second this. Nova was the only interview I felt confident about lol and i’m waitlisted too

I have it from the financial aid office. If you send me your email I can forward it to you

Do you know when they send this waitlist letter??

 

[Broccolidmd]

Do you know when they send this waitlist letter??

My friend said it shouldn’t take longer than 3-5 business days but it all depends on where you live.

 

[Laki123]

So they have a couple hundred on wait list ?

 

[FloppyToast]

So they have a couple hundred on wait list ?

Anyone that interviewed and isn't accepted is put on the waitlist, so yes. They do not outright reject those that interviewed.

 

[docsicem]

yeah exactly. my interview was last thursday so idk if i’d even have a decision let alone just be on the waitlist

I interviewed the 10th as well and heard back

 

[Laki123]

Anyone get calls today or emails ?

 

[blank1257]

I gave my spot up today at the school hopefully it goes to one of you! good luck!

 

[eas2020]

I’m still really struggling with nova and my in state schools... that’s how much I loved it here!

 

[DanHussman]

ACCEPTED!! omg I’m going to be a dentist!!! I was so sleepy I didn’t even know what to say!

Congratulations !!! I wish you the best.

 

[DanHussman]

I gave my spot up today at the school hopefully it goes to one of you! good luck!

Congrats on multiple offers !!! What school have you decided to go?

 

[bluebear123]

I’m still really struggling with nova and my in state schools... that’s how much I loved it here!

I am having the same problem! I cant decide between nova and my in state school

 

[docsicem]

Just gave up my spot as well. Goodluck to you all!

 

[deleted1070139]

I am having the same problem! I cant decide between nova and my in state school

state school would be softer on your wallet

 

[Laki123]

Anyone get a waitlist email with high or low rank in waitlist ?

 

[jjgo1234]

I GOT IN!!! I got the call on the 15th. My advice for anyone unable to get in this year FORM A RELATIONSHIP WITH YOUR ADMISSION COUNSELOR!!! After the 2019-2020 cycle ended I called to see why I didn't get in and was informed by them that I was THE. NEXT. PERSON. ON. THE. WAITLIST! they were able to make sure that admissions knew who I was and got me an interview with Dr. Lippman. I had the grades, test scores, and all other requirements to get in, and 4 years from now I'm going to be a doctor!

 

[Laki123]

Congratulations

 

[Laki123]

Anyone know from previous years how many from WL got in ?

 

[jjgo1234]

I have it from the financial aid office. If you send me your email I can forward it to you

I sent you a message with my email, would you be able to send me the breakdown? I called the school today but they only directed me to the page on their website that doesn't even have the tuition on it.

 

[Volleyteeth]

did anyone get the waitlist letter in the mail or an email?
