West Virginia went well, it seems like a very good program. They are moving to a new facility that is beautiful. Rochester and Stonybrook both sent invitations for interviews yesterday.

There was no bench test. They had 4 one on one interviews for 30 min apiece. The most asked question was why do you want to do prosth. Other questions were why West Virginia and what my experiences have been. I asked them what they saw in my application that piqued their interest and how the town was to live in. Most of it was getting to know the town, university and the residents which to me are the most important things. One of their selling points is that their Dean, Dr. Felton, is a board certified prosthodontist. He is the main reason they are getting new facilities. If you have other questions, feel free to ask.
 
I emailed UNC yesterday and was told that candidates will be called today and tomorrow for interviews.

im wondering if DrRam recieved an invitation or not

I was wondering the same thing. I know tomorrow is Sat but I contacted UNC yesterday and they told me that they were going to call today or tomorrow. I thought they were going to call instead of sending an email. I think UNC is going to send more invitations.

Jhdaws, when did you visit UNC?

DrRam,
did you get an invitation from UNC?

I called UAB the other day, and they told they are waiting until Sept 1st. Has anyone heard anything else form UAB?

Anything from Michigan?

I know there are more prostho applicants that get in here and don't post anything, come on start sharing info?

Last year UCLA's interview was around Sept 10th. Mayo never even contacted until the end of September - are you sure they're taking a resident this year? They took one last year (i think) and usually take one every other year.

Most schools those are just posted deadlines but everyone I've talked to they encourage you to apply as early as possible.

Oh, Ok thank you for the Mayo info. I guess now we all know!

Has anyone heard from Harvard or Florida yet?

Now for the next question, when do you guys think you will start getting/ hearing about acceptances??? Has anyone gotten one yet?
