Does anyone know what time the PASS portal opens up for this application cycle? Thanks
 
Can anyone translate the following on the tufts page?
  • Official transcripts from all post-secondary education completed prior to enrolling in dental school. Official dental transcripts must be submitted through the ADEA PASS application service. Please upload official copy of undergraduate transcripts to ADEA PASS. PDF scans of the official transcripts may be submitted via email to [email protected]. If the university awarded you a degree, the degree conferral must be included on the transcript;
I thought we cant upload official undergrad transcripts to PASS. Am I just uploading my official transcript to "unofficial undergraduate transcript" section? And also emailing my copy of the official undergrad transcript to that email?
 
What is the consensus on submitting application early with still pending evaluations?

I found this on ADEA PASS Help Center: Submitting and Completing Your ADEA PASS Application

Before you submit your application, be aware of the following:

  • You can make limited changes after you submit your application. You can add new items to certain areas of the Academic History, Supporting Information, and Program Materials sections (e.g., test scores, experiences, optional documents, etc.), where applicable, but you cannot edit existing entries. You can also update evaluations with "new" or "in-progress" statuses and select additional programs to apply to. All other sections are read-only.
  • You can submit your application before your transcripts and evaluations are received. Please note, however, that we will not review your application until all of your transcripts, payments, and evaluations are received. See Completing Your ADEA PASS Application for all requirements.
  • Do not wait until the last minute. You can submit your application up until 11:59 PM ET on the deadline date; however, ensure you allow for time to complete the required payment section. You must click Submit and complete the final payment information before the deadline in order to guarantee your submission is accepted. Additionally, be aware that during our busiest times you may experience page loading delays, and these may occur outside of customer service's hours of operation. We cannot grant deadline extensions if you miss your deadline; contact your programs directly for more information.

Key takeaway for me: you can add new items but not edit old ones, once you hit submit.

at least one recommendation from endodontist is necessary for application right? I am having a hard time finding endodontist who can write a rec...its been a while since I graduated from dental school and I don't have any close endodontist that I know well..

I think itā€™s one of those where itā€™s better to have one from an endodontist but they will still accept one from a GP or other specialist.

I think it is better to have a strong letter from a non-endodontist than a weak letter from an endodontist.

I think itā€™s just to confirm your class rank and GPA and you didnā€™t have disciplinary issues. Unless you happen to know the Dean personally, itā€™s not a real ā€œrecommendationā€ per se.

I went to a P/F school and graduated a while ago so itā€™s not even the same Dean. This IEF wonā€™t really help me much, literally just to complete the application.

Anybody who submitted their application already? transcripts, board scores and IEF are a must for submission, correct?

I am also confused on this. Also, is there an official request for our evaluators for the letters of rec?
 
Is anyone having trouble finding the actual application for Nova? I don't see the endo application on their portal.. getting in contact with their IT has not been going well

Go to apply now on the NOVA website- choose GRADUATE option; select STANDARD APPLICATION. After you have filled that you can send your documents and your recommenders can send their documents to [email protected].
For transcripts- [email protected]

Where did you get that information I thought we were supposed to mail everything..?

Also, what "documents" are we supposed to send? CV?
 
I called and asked them. You can mail documents or email them too. If they are mailed directly from the issuing agency they are considered official; if you email them or you mail them they are considered unofficial. From my understanding, and I confirmed it with them as well, they are accepting unofficial documents and will need official ones once accepted.

The documents you need to send are-
Cv
Personal statement
Undergrad transcripts and/ or grad Transcripts
Dental school transcripts
3 LOR
Application fee
Online NoVa application
NBDE reports
 
Thank you!! If the evaluator submits the letter to the email is that considered official?
 
Yes it should come directly from the evaluator - should be on a letter head with a wet signature and dated.

Hello! Iā€™ve been trying, but the only available application is Anesthesia. How do I get to the endo application for NOVA?
 
Does anyone know how to add the ADAT score to the PASS? It only has the options for the individual universities and no PASS option.

Hi everyone.
Is anyone applying for Columbia?
On the Columbia's website, a while ago, it said "ADAT is optional", but today I saw it says "ADAT is required to apply."
Does anyone know if you cannot apply without the result of ADAT or not?
If you will take ADAT from now, can you meet the deadline of the application?

I am taking the ADAT Tuesday (5-24). Website says 3-4 weeks for results. Only one school Iā€™m applying to requires it, but I am going to submit my application prior to getting the results. That schoolā€™s app deadline is July 15, so that should give plenty of time for results before the deadline (even if it isnā€™t ideal).

The ADA website says "Submit your application for the ADAT at least 60 days before you intend to take it."
Can I only take ADAT 2 months later?
 
I think thatā€™s just so you can get a test date in your location. It was difficult for my application to get approved (Iā€™m not the only one who had this issue) because of the ADA cyberattack. Website says 1-3 business days. It took about 10 days for me and 2 and a half weeks for one of my friends to get approved, and we applied on the same day. Once approved both of us were able to sign up for a test date on the Pearson website. There were very few test dates available in most testing centers within driving distance of my location that would still allow me to have my app in on time. Iā€™m driving 2.5 hours to take my test even though there are 2 test centers in my town. I would go ahead and apply. I actually got someone on the phone from the ADA the other day, and they said they are close to resolving the issue, so you may not have any trouble. I actually called them about NBDE scores because I put in a request, and it took forever for them to send them to me and to PASS.

How many days is it between your application to ADAT and your test date? Is it more than 60 days?
 
4/29 application date. I chose to take the test 5/24 so Iā€™d have about 4 weeks to study. Again, not ideal but there were even earlier dates available. You do not have to wait any amount of time after youā€™re approved to take the test. I think the 60 day thing is a suggestion so you can get a good date.

I wonder how much the importance of ADAT is for the application for endo residency...
