Rutgers School of Dental Medicine Class of 2025 Interview/Acceptance Thread

I received an interview invite from Rutgers on Oct. 21st (to interview in November) and was told to confirm for an interview by today (Oct 23rd). At first, I emailed requesting for a virtual interview, but then sent a follow-up confirming the in-person interview. Did any of you receive a response after you sent your email confirming the interview invite?
Thank you in advance

Just had my interview yesterday. It was very chill and conversational. It was definitely open file because the interviewer did ask me very detailed questions regarding my app. I have had 4 interviews before this including MMI and PBL and regular interviews. Rutgers interview was the longest, took me about 30 minutes.

Mind if I ask what 4 interviews that you had done? PBL is the one for USC?
 
Just got an interview invite for Dec 10th!
Both AA and TS are 22 with very strong upward trend of GPA: sGPA: 3.38 and cGPA: 3.52. I actually sent the update of my app a couple of days ago, and got invitation today.

Hi! I have my virtual interview on December 4th and I was wondering if anyone who had their virtual interview can tell me what I can expect.

are you in their masters program? 3.4 overall or science?
I'm not in the masters program, and sorry I wasn't specific. 3.5 overall, 3.4 science. I know it is pretty low for their stats, I was very surprised when I got the interview!

Hi, are you a Canadian student?
 
status changed from "check back dec. 15" to "received/under review"
 
What is everyone status? Mine changed to under review again and I’ve heard some people has been denied!!
 
this is killing me. so can we see the decision at 12?
 
I'm stressed out now. Does that mean they accidentally sent rejections early and changed it to "received/under review"??? I had check back on December 15th, but those who got denied are making me worry about the current status.
 
Does anyone still have ‘Check Dec 15th’ as their status? Hoping everyone’s changed back to received/under review and it’s not bad news lol
 
I’m an outgoing senior this year, so I will just miss you guys coming in. But if you have any questions about the school, let me know.
