That's weird. My application has been completed for a while, but I have not received any supplemental fee email. I will contact them soon to see what is the hold up.
 
Anyone receive invite for interview yet? or supplemental apps??

Yo chill I applied to enough schools. If I don't get in here, it's not the end of the world. They have a strong, close knit program which attracted me to apply.

Lol I know you applied to enough. I'm just curious how many, seems like you're in every thread
 
Nothing wrong with applying broadly! Becoming a dentist is the goal, so you have to make sure you give yourself plenty of options when applying to schools. I am also OOS and was attracted to the program for the same reasons. I know plenty of people "out of region" who have been offered a spot at UKCD, too. It's not worth prodding or causing issues over this.

Did anyone received an email with the topic "Hold for Comparison" ?

They hardly accept anyone out of region. How many total schools did you apply to?

This isn't true at all. I'm a D2 at UK right now and I have 2 classmates from CA, 1 from AZ, 1 from UT, 1 from WA, 2 from TX, 1 from MA, 2 from MI, a few from FL, 1 from AR, 1 from NJ.....while there are others, I think you get the point.

Our student affairs has told us that the number of OOS applications has doubled for UKCD this year. We had our first round on interviewees in the building today. There were 14 total.

That's crazy!! I wonder why so many more OOS applicants applied??

My theory: since AADSAS applications get sent immediately to schools now without a delay, people added on a bunch more schools later in the cycle without hesitating and thinking "what's the point when it'll take awhile for my application to even get to them anyways." Anyways, good luck everyone that has interviews! 🙂

Yup. It's some good humble medicine, because I'm 5/5 for interviews so far, including to some brutal schools.

Can't take any of this stuff for granted. Trying to enjoy the process.

I don't think so. I did finish a masters and I am an non-trad. I have lots of shadowing hours and research but nothing exceptional comes to mind when it comes to extracurriculars.
 
For those of you that have already interviewed, how did it go?

The interview was very conversational. There were about 20 people in my group. We toured the school then saw some presentations: about the school and financial aid. Then we did interviews, and we ended the day eating lunch with students. The student affairs staff were really nice and welcoming as well as the dental students.
 
Does anyone know more about the chances of getting an interview after the hold for comparison email? Not sure if they have already started giving out interviews for December

I had a hold for comparison email because my letter of recommendations had not been received. Once my letters were received, I received an interview invite about two weeks later.

Did you call the school and ask about the hold for comparison, or you just knew your letters hadn't been received yet?

I emailed them about the hold for comparison, and when I saw my letters were uploaded on AADSAS I emailed them to let them know. I believe I received the secondary the day I told them my letters were submitted. I submitted the secondary the next day, then they emailed me about interviewing that day for a date two weeks out.

Is the secondary just paying the fee?
