Check with them to be sure. Congratulations!

Thanks a lot. I will try to email the chair of the biology department, telling him about my acceptance and hopefully they will let me override microbiology because they require cell bio as pre-req and I am taking cell bio this spring semester, so hopefully, they will let me take them both. If not, I will check with Nova is they will accept that course.

 

[Auntymarkovnikov]

Got my first acceptance and first rejection today January the 7th
#1 acceptance
Nova Yay
Method of contact: Call
#1 rejection
UCSF Nay
Method of contact: Email

I am out of state for both...
GPA/SGPA: 4.00, 4.00
DAT AA/TS: 23/24

FYi: I applied to Nova October 25th and to UCSF October the 26th( during their extended time when Micheal storm hit the east coast, so I submitted on the very last day )

Interview date for Nova was around the very end of November
Interview date for UCSF: Non existent, I was rejected without an interview.

Nova was the first school that contacted me, and the only school that invited me to a pre-decmeber interview. My status was invited to Nova the whole month, so I almost given up hope on them until I received the call today
However, I can't take Microbilogy at my university. I can take Inrdocutory microbiology at the community college, I hope they will accept it or else I am doomed


I want to add that my mom has been in the hospital for the last 8 days, I spent new year at the ER, and I received both acceptance and rejection at the hospital.

So life works in a weird way sometimes.

FAEFLYYYY LEZZGOO BABY!!!

[shinyteethandme12]

Are you able to receive more offers/interviews even after you accepted one from a school? Can the schools see decisions made on AADSAS? Just trying to hold out for the best school.

The school won't make you a better dentist... its just a paper on your wall. Its about how you treat people and how you live your life!! Be grateful that you have made it to the last part of your journey!! Congrats!!!

Rejection #1 University of Colorado

Did you interview there?

 

[DATdentalkid]

Did you interview there?

I didn't so if you did there might be some hope for you. They probably only send it to the ones that didnt receive an interview invite.

"The Admissions Committee received over 2700 applications for this year's cycle through the American Dental Education Association (ADEA).

A variety of objective and subjective criteria enter into the evaluation of each individual application regarding their consideration for admission. Applicants compete for a limited number of seats, and this year's pool was extremely competitive. Regretfully, I must inform you that your application was not among those selected for the University of Colorado School of Dental Medicine's 2019 entering class, and we are no longer considering your application.

[deathcat4cutie]

I was accepted to Case on 12/3. I received post-Dec interview invites to two other schools, and I accepted them because one is a top choice for me, and I’m keeping my options open. Do you guys think I should keep the acceptance to myself during my interviews (assuming they ask about it)? Will admissions frown upon the fact that I’ve paid a deposit for a school already? I’d love your thoughts...comment or PM me pls

I think IF they ask about it, you should be honest. State simply the truth. Something like, "I have been accepted to another school, but THIS SCHOOL is my top choice. I would prefer to attend this school because of x, y, z."

If Lecom didn't work out I'm sure another school that is a better fit will.
