**Official PASS 2023 Periodontic Residency Interviews/Information**

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
I have the same question about the official copies of NBDE + Toefl scores, do we need to send them directly or what is submitted through PASS would be enough?
Also, do we need to fill any supplemental documents (application form, recommendations form, English Proficiency form) that are mentioned in the website and send them directly?
As the application form doesn’t include the option of Periodontics to be selected as the program of choice!
I’m an international applicant
Yes you need to send all of the documents you mentioned but they said that you can email them instead of mailing.
For the application form they said you can just write periodontics
For the recommendation form it should be emaild by the evaluator not you
I hope that helps
 
If you graduated with an American DMD you only have to submit the application via ADEA PASS to UCLA, right? So we have to submit anything else directly via email to UCLA? Nobody picked up the phone.
Has anybody received an email confirmation that their application to UCLA is complete?

I emailed them to verify if my application is complete, and they said they “don’t check application completeness” -.- so I imagine they won’t be sending an email telling you your application is complete or not. I ended up sending my INBDE scores just in case because I saw conflicting information between the UCLA periodontics website and the postgrad website. There is no supplement fee or supplemental application aside from what was on ADEA PASS.

Thank you! Did you send them the photo, CV, supplemental application form and evaluation? I don’t understand why do they need another evaluation.

I did not end up sending a photo. I asked if they wanted the photo in my email and they didn't answer my question. Instead this was their response: "If you have submitted what is required or stated for the program, then your packet should be complete. We do not check on the completeness of each applicant's packet."

I went off of this link for application materials. From what I understand, everything you need to apply with (CV, Supplemental) is in the PASS application, unless you want to submit extra LOR/PEF (Professional Evaluation Forms). Additionally, sending your official INBDE/NBDE scores to their email. Hope this helps!
 
So you sent your copy from DENTPIN of the NBDE scores via email? Thanks again!

"Have you ever applied to a postdoctoral dental program other than the current program on your PASS application? If so, please provide type of residency program, name of program and years applied"

If I applied for perio through the Army but was not accepted, do I answer yes, or is this asking whether or not I have applied for ortho, OS, endo, etc?
 
Applied to NOVA and completed the supplemental application on their website. When I check application status it says everything except payment is "Not Received" even though I submitted everything on the list through PASS. Does it just take a while for them to process the application?
Did they send you a link to pay the supplemental fee? I don't see a place from the website.
 
Some programs have an 8/1 deadline. But some have an 8/15 or 9/1 deadline. Try looking up those ones on the search engine! I think you still have some time for those.
Yes I found many of them 8/15 and 9/1 and even Nov, but I am wondering if they would still consider applications or had enough already...
Thank you.
 
Did anybody receive interview invites from the programs with 08/01 application deadline?

Did anybody receive email confirmation from UCLA regarding the status of their application?
 
My friend is asking about Tufts, he submitted his application and he should receive an email with a link to pay application fee right? It's been a whie and he hasn't received anything yet. However, he received a complete application email
Is that normal?
 
Nova never sent me a supplemental link. Does that mean they aren’t interested in my application? Just curious I suppose.
 
Do schools usually send invites after deadline or they send them even before the deadline?
Thanks
 
Do you know for which date(s)? Will they have several interview days?
 
Does anyone know if any of the universities that have already sent out interviews will send out any other rounds of invitations or is it one and done?
 
From my understanding it’s every Monday or Friday starting from Sept 9 - October
Does anyone know if any of the universities that have already sent out interviews will send out any other rounds of invitations or is it one and done?
I don’t know but I would have loved to get an interview invite from UAB.
Since they already sent out invites for so many dates, they are probably done with the invites.
