Before I was accepted to UT, I emailed Columbia about their waitlist. They let me know that they have made final decisions for waitlist students

Hi everyone, does anyone know whether columbia is still accepting for dental students or in what particular order they are picking students?

as of last Friday. If someone does not finish their paperwork, a position might open up.

I'm still waitlisted for Howard and mine is 1/26 I called last week and they said they were still working through the waitlist so maybe theres still a chance. I suggest calling just to make sure its not full yet because thats what I've been doin

I'm attending Iowa's site and the only thing I have gotten from them was an email with a survey. they said they would contact us later but I have not received anything so far. Is this normal or should I contact the coordinator?

Congrats to your acceptances to various SHPEP sites!

Same here! All I've received so far is the initial survey. I was going to give them a little bit more time before reaching out, but let me know if you do reach out and get a response!

I actually emailed the person in charge and she said that they didn't send out any new info but we should be expecting an email with new information soon!

There's a Facebook group for the UT site if you're going!

I also did the Columbia SHPEP program this past summer of 2017. If you have any questions, I would be happy to answer them. Also, once you become a SHPEP alumni make sure to keep in touch with your TA’s and the staff at the school because they may help you get future internships and opportunities. Also be sure to monitor the emails you get from Marcus, he will send you more information about internships and seminars. Good luck guys!!!

Do you guys know about how many people apply to UW, UCLA or Western U? I know Columbia gets around 2000+, but is it the same for the other campuses?

Apply to where you want to go. It all depends on what that specific site is looking for. I was only accepted to Columbia but I applied to 2 other schools. However, Columbia was my first choice so I was really excited. Give it shot.

If you don't mind me asking, how did you do on the MCAT? it wouldn't allow me to personally inbox you
