What does it mean when the status on your application changes from "interview" to "none" and you haven't even interviewed yet?
It's normal and doesn't mean anything. You still have an interview. It will probably say that up until and perhaps even beyond Dec 1.

Beyond blessed for this interview. Keep your hopes up guys!
 
Thank you! I hope so too!!!
My dad was actually getting a root canal one day and was talking to the doctor about how I wanted to be a dentist and he said that one of his current assistants was unlicensed and was leaving for dental school soon, so they were looking for someone to replace her! He was basically just in the right place at the right time I guess!!!
hello! Thank for sharing your story. May I ask which state do you work at? I also work as an assistant with an oral surgeon unlicensed and I have some questions. Do you mind if I PM you?

Hopefully I can fine-tune my interviewing skills by then :nailbiting:

I got it as well. Its just a interview prep session I hear they're pretty helpful but I don't believe it has any bearing on whether you'll receive a actual interview.

It should be here (Login). It'll have your status and app checklist where you can see the dates each component was submitted.
Right but I don’t see where on that portal it’d show admission status. It just shows a bunch of checks and dates things were submitted.
