Thank you very much. It's a hard decision to make.. 🙁

It may be a hard decision, but anyone of these schools is going to make you into a fantastic dentist! Congratulations!

I only had one interview to Minnesota going in and was getting a lil nervous but I yesterday got an acceptance to Minnesota!!!!! I am beyond happy and thankful for this opportunity. On another note I have like 8 other schools that I just have heard nothing back from, whether it was a rejection or for an interview. I am assuming if they didn't like me at all I would have been rejected already right? When do school typically send out interviews or rejections post December 1st? I'm guessing not hearing anything is better than a flat out rejection, their all still "under review" or "complete".

[RJLIL]

@flyingoctopus , what 8 other schools were you talking about if I may ask. I'll understand if you are not willing to share. I haven't heard from several schools such as BU, Tufts and NYU.

 

[SpartanDDS83]

"HOLD" email from Marquette. Is this a soft rejection?

same ..is a hold supposed to be a good thing or a bad thing? i dont even know :/

 

[Dentista777]

Yayyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!! Congrats!!

thank youuuuu🙂

 

[NavyDDS1990]

Me too!! Just got the call!!

Feels awesome right? haha I was shaking my voice while I was talking to Dr. Jeffers. Are you set on UDM?

 

[x0jessmariex3]

same ..is a hold supposed to be a good thing or a bad thing? i dont even know :/

I would say its a good thing because you can still be considered for a spot. They already sent out rejections to my knowledge. I was also put on a hold and withdrew my app. So that's one less person on the list.

I also withdrew my app from NYU. (Was put on waitlist).

So are the chances for a post dec 1 interview slim to none? like should I start studying for the GRE for a masters program?

It's still so early to come up with plan B. However there are tons of masters and postbac program that made for pre dental purposes that you can easily get in without GRE. Most of master programs that people go is 1 year program at most of schools without any thesis or anything related to graduate program. In other word you only gonna take advance level classes. Good luck and stay optimistic!

Why not Touro or BU?

[Predental1995]

Why not Touro or BU?

Touro was just too new, there were no clinics to be seen although it was a beautiful school and high tech. I like the big class size of Tufts and they put a lot of money into renovations. Seems like the better of the two boston schools. NYU is closer to home.

Tough choice to be, the deposits for both schools are pretty big. When si your Rutgers interview? Can you hear back before the deposits are due or no?
