Hi, I have a few questions about the application process.

Do dental schools have secondary rounds like medical schools ? I mean, after I submit my AADSAS application, send out transcripts,LORs and pay the all the fees, is there anything else I need to do in the next two months ? Will they call you to ask for something or to verify your application ?

I ask this question because I'm gonna be out of the country for two months (July and August) and I don't really know how schools process applications.

Thank you for your help.

there are a couple of schools that don't, but most schools do have a supplementary applications.

schools that do off the top of my head:
ucla
ucsf
loma linda
usc (if granted an interview)
harvard
penn
wvu (but there aren't really essay questions...just personal info and another check)

schools that don't:
boston uni
tufts
columbia
uop
nyu
u of michigan

think that's all i can think of, i don't know about some of the other schools, but that's just quickly off the top of my head

i'd try to notify the schools and see if you could try to do the secondaries before you leave

hope that helps, good luck

My family still stay. They just need some more paper works, right ? What will they ask for ? Therefore, I can prepare them ahead of time and have my sister send them for me.
