I know this may not be the preferred place to post this, but I always checked this to see what types of applicants were getting into the schools I wanted to go to/interviewed at/got rejected from last year. It can drive you nuts, especially if you didn't get any acceptances til January (like I did). In fact, I received all 3 of my acceptances in 2016 and had submitted all the way back in July 2015. Keep your head up, and be damn sure to enjoy your last year of college bc dental school is pretty thick with material. Congrats to those on acceptances today

Please do not freak out if you don't hear anything. Schools operate differently and every year things don't go as planned. You never know when those post Dec interviews will fly in. Be courteous and let schools that still have you under review know immediately you are withdrawing your app if you hear the news you want from a different school.

They sent an email newsletter about a week ago explaining that they send the first wave of acceptance emails and phone calls by the end of Dec 1. The next wave is spring semester.
