whats going on with Penn and NYU. Did anyone get any news this week?
 
Just got accepted to Western University!!! I just sent my second deposit to Tufts so now I've got a tough decision to make. I guess my fourth year applying is the charm! 😀

Congrats! I would def stick with the closer school if i was you.
 
TyAgar3, Congrats on your acceptance!!! Must be exciting to hear after your long wait. Do you mind telling us your stats your first and fourth times applying? I'm a first time applicant and applied to ten schools (TUFTS, LECOM, NYU, TEMPLE, TN, VCU, HOWARD, etc.) but no interviews. It's hard to not lose hope but I'm going to try again and improve my application next cycle.

My stats are low
oGPA: 3.24
sGPA: 3.16
DAT: 21/21/24 but Reading:17 🙁

I'm guessing you meant this message for me, not TyAgar3. 😉
You can see my current stats on PreDents.. as for my first year, that was with my first DAT scores which were 17 overall, 22 PAT, 17's across the board in Sciences, 17 in Reading, 16 Math. My overall GPA was around 3.2, Science GPA 3.0. I even got an interview that year at my in-state school, OHSU. Second year my GPA was almost the same but my DAT scores were the ones I have now in PreDents. I interviewed that year at OHSU as well and was wait-listed. Then my third year, my GPA increased by meaningless points and I got an interview and wait listed at USC. Then this year, I rewrote my Personal Statement AGAIN, got to add quite a bit more research publications, added a few more A's on upper division science courses and wa-la! Two acceptances! I will definitely advise applying to as many schools as you possibly can. This year, we applied to 15.

Good luck and don't lose hope!

Congratulations!!! You deserve it. 😎
 
Thanks bud, sucks we didn't get into the same places though! Would've been awesome to have been class mates!

I agree! Who knows, maybe OHSU will come around yet with more in state interviews and we'll both end up staying in state!
 
Has anyone heard from USC recently? Does anyone know when their next batch of acceptances are coming out?:idea:
 
Got a Stony Brook Waitlist email yesterday... anyone else get waitlisted or rejected?
 
Interview invitation to OHSU via email. I'm a CA resident. Is it normal for OHSU to be sending out interviews this late in the cycle?

Hey, congrats. Yeah they are super slow. They have some spots open and are hungry for out of staters so It's a legit interview - not for a spot on the waiting list.
 
So when's the deadline for people to withdraw from multiple schools and commit to one?
 
Thank God. I've been on Columbia's waitlist forever and some *****s still haven't made their mind up. Maybe I'll see some action next week from them. Thanks!

I heard the deadline was the 16th. But eitherway, its soon. Good luck to everyone waiting to hear something!

This is the best thing I have EVER read on this website!!! Maybe it's just because I am also on a waitlist, but it made me laugh.
 
Gave up my seat at Pittsburgh. Good luck for the people who are on the waiting list 🙂
 
any news from Souther Illinois University?? still waiting...

"Applicants Holding Positions at Multiple Institutions. Starting April 1, dental schools report to ADEA AADSAS the names and identification numbers of candidates who have paid a deposit, hold a position in a dental school entering class, or both. After April 5, ADEA AADSAS reports to each institution the names of candidates for its entering class who hold acceptance(s) at additional institutions. A dental school may rescind an offer of admission to a candidate who has paid deposits to or holds positions at multiple institutions. If the dental school chooses to withdraw this candidate from the entering class, the dental school must give the candidate a minimum 15-day notice"

This would make the deadline the 20th assuming dental schools called all the people holding multiple seats on the 5th and gave them a 15 day notice.

Correct. The private schools - like Tufts, UPenn, USC - are particular about filling all their spots, and promptly send notice to those with multiple offers. This will automatically force applicants to withdraw from other schools - with April 19th being the Earliest (depends on how one counts 15 days).
 
Got accepted to UIC on Wednesday...now I have to decide between there and Midwestern AZ

After you interviewed at UIC, did they put you on an alternate list? Or were you accepted with just the interview?
 
I'm keeping my fingers crossed for interview invites from Howard, Case Western, and/or NYU....is there any hope for me this late in the cycle? 🙁
 
Acceptance to Roseman this afternoon via phone call. Interviewed April 10. First acceptance as a 2nd year applicant (stats on my predents link). I was signed up to retake the DAT in June, but am so happy I don't have to now! Best of luck to everyone still waiting; don't get down if you need to reapply, today made the disappointment and waiting all worth it 🙂
 
I'm interviewing with Howard this Saturday, which I believe is considered realllyyyy late. Hopefully they'll be doing a little more and you'll get good news too!

Good to know, thanks! Hope you rock that interview on Saturday!
 
Just got a call and an email of acceptance to the UDM School of Dentistry. I was interviewed on April 13.

Excited and so happy.
 
Accepted to Western. Got a missed call + voicemail at around 5pm today. =)
 
Congrats 👍👍

According to his PreDents, it says October 1st was his interview.
 
I got a call from Dr. Jeffers yesterday (which I missed) but I called him first thing in the morning and found out that I was accepted to University of Detroit Mercy Class of 2016!!! 😍 Super excited!!!
