Yes! Great school and opportunity, but unfortunately my mom passed away a couple of months prior to my acceptance. So, it was just bad timing. Obviously a huge decision, but it was the best decision for me mentally. Once I graduated from Ole Miss, I moved to Dallas, where my sister lives, worked as a treatment coordinator at a pediatric dental office and am now getting my masters in biomedical sciences! Back at it

She'd be proud!

Congratulations! I love your RC score!
 
Thanks for letting me know. I don't even thing I received that e-mail.

It was a very early email. Very easy to forget about it. You probably got it and forgot about it.
 
Rejected: Midwestern - Arizona

I just want to say Congratulations to everyone that received interviews to Midwestern thus far, and best of luck to all who are still waiting. Everyone that has recieved an interview obviously did a great job with their application, studies, and services which surpassed what I had to offer. Blessings to everyone this application cycle, I wish you all the best and hopes for admission.

"Dear X,

We recently reviewed your completed application to Midwestern University College of Dental Medicine. It is obvious that you put a great deal of time and effort into completing your file. While your application has its strengths, the applicant pool is so strong that we are unable to offer you an interview.

We do appreciate your interest in the College of Dental Medicine. We wish you well in your quest for further medical education.

Sincerely,

James M. Walter, MPA
Director of Admissions"

"So strong" cracks me up. Why use the word strong or let alone the word "so" in front of it? Context of "strong" is ambiguous and the word "so" is unnecessary. It reminds me when my Prof failed students for saying that bacteria become stronger and that's why N. gonorrhoeae is becoming resistant to antibiotics. Really? Does it go to the gym?!

But enough of my ranting, kudos to you in trying. Sadly, I know how that email feels.

Congrats! Can I ask what other schools you applied to? I got 17 for my PAT score as well...on the practice PATs hole punching was one of my best sections but on the real DAT the hole punching questions were ridiculously harder and I ran out of time!

Congrats! My complete date was 8/8 so I'm hoping I'll hear from them in the next few weeks!
 
So looks like MWU-IL has already sent invites? I haven't seen many post on here for them. I haven't seen MOSDOH either. I've seen WesternU and LECOM but not Roseman. Anybody can carroborate?
