I dont think Buffalo sent out rejections.
Actually, I received a soft rejection from Buffalo.
you got a rejection from IOWA without an interview, or an interview and then rejected.
what do you mean by a soft rejection? Do you just mean that they are still reviewing your app or they have put you on hold?

Thank you! About UCSF - I don't have very much research experience. Maybe that's what they were looking at? I'm not too sure. It was one of my top school choices so it was disappointing to get rejected without even an interview. Having the other ones do help! They give a lot of hope that I'll get in somewhere! 🙂
What batch are you?you were right !!! I was freaking out!!! Im glad we both got pre-dec interviews and hopefully an acceptance!
Hey guys,
my application was submitted with a mail out date of 9/11 to MQT, MWU-IL, COL, UNE, MWU-AZ. I completed the following secondaries within the following week of my mail out date upon request for UNE, both MWU and MQT.
I've only received one response which was an interview hold from MWU-AZ.
At what point do I abandon hope for an interview invite? I cannot seem to figure if I've missed the bus. Any reply from a seasoned application veteran would be great.

What state are you from? What are your stats, hours of shadow and volunteer?
In general private schools have a longer rolling admissions and interview many applicants post December. Do not give up, there is still hope!
Anyone hear from UPenn this week?
Hi, I was wondering if UNE, Louisville, Roseman, and Midwestern are still giving out interviews. I haven't heard from any of them. I'm in batch 10 as well. Also, UNE and Louisville have "application complete" does that mean anything?
I think UNE has two more interview dates in November they haven't sent invites out for yet.
Thank you!
I just checked through last years thread and it seems like the November interviews started going out the last two weeks of October. Even more reason to frantically refresh my email!!
Haha I know right, I have no interviews and it's been crickets for the past 2ish months. My luck has gotta change soon, and I'm hoping it starts with UNE!
Ugh, I'm so with you! All of this silence is stressing me out. I just want one (for now)! Is that too much to ask?!
Can I ask you about your DAT scores and the number of schools you applied?
I hope your luck changes too! I interviewed there earlier this month and it was a great school with awesome, modern facilities for the dental school. They only have 3 more interview dates left:
- Monday, October 19, 2015
- Monday, November 2, 2015
- Monday, November 16, 2015
Sure! stats are pretty average, my DAT was 20AA/20TS, oGPA 3.59 and sGPA 3.54
I applied to 13 schools, which is turning into 12 really because I never submitted the UoP supplemental lol. I didn't submit until August though which I am totally kicking myself for now...
Thanks for giving your status. My DAT averages are 19 both and my GPA is 3.84. I applied to 8 schools though because I couldn't go all over USA because of my family. Do you think it is better to start studying for DAT? I think the reason that I am not getting any interviews is my DAT score
It took about 1.5 months before I heard from my first school and my mail out day was mid aug.
Thanks for the reply. I am really hoping for some pre-December interviews but it seems unlikely at this point 🙁

It doesn't mean you are rejected, it means that your application is being reviewed by the admissions committee and they have not made a decision yet. When you are rejected, your AADSAS portal will say "Application Denied".
AT Still University (ASDOH)
How does your brain even make the connection that "Under Review" could mean you're rejected?
is 3.25 oGPA including post-bacc/SMP?
I already got rejections from Midwestern AZ and Meharry TN 🙁 I don't think so with this stats I would able to get an interview this time. Feel really horrible 🙁

Very excited for you! Good luck!
that is mean bruh.
chin up. just my personal opinion, does your GPA include a lot of upper div bio/chem/science in general classes? because to compensage for that DAT, I think you should have around 3.8 GPA.

I took lot of upper level science courses, few as special topics like: embryogenesis and fertilization, parasite ecology, and so on. Do you think my score in QR is holding me back?
just in my opinion, your total GPA is a bit low if it is like 3.5 3.6 then ur DAT is probably marginally acceptable. but stats are just one side of applicant. someone posted here with AA 19 with 15 on PAT got like 5 interviews. so probably your GPA.
If something about your given stats is holding you back, I would think it is the low shadowing hours and maybe your 17 RC.
EDIT: I'm not saying these are holding you back, but that if something that you've told us is holding you back, those would be my guess. Maybe you'll get interview invites tomorrow, who knows.
