Not sure if this thread is active anymore, but how soon after the cycle opens are you able to submit your application?
 
I was wondering the same thing!
Well you have to wait for your professional eval letters, school letter, test scores, transcripts etc to be uploaded to your application. I would say if you had the best of luck with your letter writers then a couple of weeks after opening. There is no "you must wait X days" to submit though. Also, there really isn't that big of a rush other than getting it off your conscience.
 
does anyone know when we’re reapplying, do we have to request LORs and transcripts all over again or is there an option to transfer them over from last year?

You're gonna have to request them all over again unfortunately.
Or fortunately... you'd hope that an extra year of preparing and getting more experience that your LORs should improve
 
Does anyone know if there is a new thread for the upcoming cycle OR when the new thread will start?
 
Can anyone tell me anything about the University of Colorado's ortho program? Good program, bad program? How research heavy is it? Stipend? Just wanting to know more about it please!

I'd say good program, there's not really any con's that I have heard about it. Besides it being one of the more expensive programs.. around 75k per year (190k total). No stipend. Yes research is part of the program, I wouldn't say research heavy though. Each class is about 12 residents. Residents start around 40 cases each and you can get experience with different bracket systems, aligners, and a good chance you'll get experience doing surgical cases as well.
