Has Colorado sent out acceptances yet?

 

[ortho lover]

I have the same questions. Did Colorado or Loma Linda sent out acceptance?

 

[orthotoothfairy11]

I just realized USC's deadline was Oct 1. How late are their interviews? I don't see them on the list from last year
🤔

[Cusp_of_Carabelli]

I have the same questions. Did Colorado or Loma Linda sent out acceptance?

Colorado sent some acceptances yesterday, but I have heard that they accept throughout the week!

 

[orthogen232]

Hello! Did anyone hear from Jacksonville?

 

[toothdoc_22]

Did anyone get an acceptance from Colorado yet?

 

[CampylobacterXD]

Anyone get an acceptance from Loma?

 

[sl8er]

Anyone get an acceptance from Loma?

Residents said they’d call around 6-7 pm last night if accepted, but you just won’t hear back if not

 

[Bracesortho]

Hello! Did anyone hear from Jacksonville?

They should have sent by now i think 🥲

 

[Cusp_of_Carabelli]

[ortho-or-bust]

Howard, USC, Medstar are the ones I know...

 

[Hockey_Ortho]

Howard, USC, Medstar are the ones I know...

I believe Medstar sent invites today from what I heard

 

[Geelove9]

[fahad.kidwai]

Anyone got from Medstar?

 

[sl8er]

[Serie56]

Indeed JU just sent out. I am needing to swap with possible if possible. I am currently on the 20th. Would highly appreciate if someone with interview on the 21st could swap with me. I can help cover any expenses for travel rearrangements. Will be highly appreciated.

 

[ortho lover]

Anyone got acceptances from Loma Linda or Colorado who aren’t their dental students?

 

[rexaroni]

When does Jacksonville typically let the interviewee know if they got accepted since they are non match?

 

[sl8er]

When does Jacksonville typically let the interviewee know if they got accepted since they are non match?

Wondering the same thing

 

[Hockey_Ortho]

When does Jacksonville typically let the interviewee know if they got accepted since they are non match?

before the match date, it's required to withdraw

Are any of your interviews showing up on the dental match website?

Hey guys, would anyone who received a San antonio invite be willing to switch their November 3rd for my November 4th. I dont have many invites so would mean the world to switch due to a conflict on the 4th. I would be forever grateful and would definitely buy drinks and dinner to whoever could

Are these online or in person?

In person

Hi Everyone, I have an interview for EIOH at Rochester for October 28th, in person, full day, with a social in the evening. I've never switched interviews with someone before but I'm curious if it's possible to switch with someone for this because on October 29th I have an interview at Western Ontario, so I'd have to miss the social for Rochester to travel. I'm going to reach out to the program administrator at EIOH to see if this is even possible, but just thought I'd throw it out on here first. Thanks!

Did anyone get acceptance from Loma linda?

 

[molarbear5678]

No word from Oregon?

 

[Lemillion]

Did anyone get acceptance from Loma linda?

When I interviewed at Loma (~2 years ago), they called people after the second day of interviews and extended offers. They didn't notify me but my friend who was a resident there at the time confirmed through their residency group chat while we were out at dinner together. I am assuming not much has changed since another friend interviewed last year and got in the same night after he interviewed.

augusta called 10/08 and the interview is 11/04
