doesnt look like it so far...?

 

[needa20]

not yet. but they told me that just because you interview pre-dec does not mean that they accept or reject you on Dec 1st. I know someone that interviewed with LLU in October and did not get accepted until early february.

so not hearing does not mean accepted or rejected

 

[LovemyScrubs]

Nope--haven't heard anything..or heard of anyone that's heard anything..

 

[BadgerLoveSmile]

I havent heard anything either. I just called LLU and they said they would be posting it on AADSAS today and sending out a letter! AADSAS may not have gotten to the LLU acceptances yet! Hopefully soon though! Good luck everyone!

 

[ssik]

I just checked my AADSAS and it said "Offer Made"... I'm assuming this means I got accepted???

 

[tryin2bepatient]

thanks for the update "badger"

im not gonna lie...i was a little scared to call them...haha

 

[needa20]

looks like you are one of the first. congrats

to everyone else, remember LLU does not accept/reject always on dec 1, even if you interview pre-dec

 

[BadgerLoveSmile]

Has anyone else heard from Loma Linda today???

 

[dennisDDS]

Just going to ask the same question..

I think 3 have responded is that all they give out 3? for Dec 1?

 

[visbimmer79]

and they told me they are still in the process.

That is to say, it's not determined yet.

However, it sounds like they will decide it soon.

AADSAS--->Snail Mail

That's their way to inform us.

Let's wait a few more days.

So first rounds of acceptances are done? or they are still working on it? dont know what to think anymore =(

the first rounds of acceptances are not done yet.

However, AADSAS status should be changed prior to being accepted to LLU.

Ok, I think the first rounds of acceptance will be completed at the end of this week.

Let's wait a bit more!!

 

[Kokugeka Shiro]

I just checked mine and it says "offer made" too!!! I interviewed on November 18th, so that was a much faster turn-around than I expected from them (I thought they said it'd probably take a while to hear).


I'd encourage everyone else to check their aadsas out if they haven't; I had no idea it'd be there until the guy above said his was updated.


PS-I'm not SDA, if that helps..

 

[needa20]

looks like 4 people from this site have been accepted. congrats

btw, they are not done with first round acceptances

 

[LovemyScrubs]

Anyone else hear? I think I'm done checking AADSAS & SDN every 5 min

 

[needa20]

yea, im gonna give it a rest too. they only just started accepting even from pre-dec interviews

 

[tryin2bepatient]

haha, i feel ya on that...this mental stress definitely can't be too healthy...

 

[dennisDDS]

^^ I know what you mean..

I interviewed Early September and not 1 peep....

Them trickling out 1 spot everyday is definately not good for my mental stability..

 

[deus85]

interviewed today. They've sent 20-30 acceptances on the first and will continue to accept an additional 10-15 each time the adcom meets

 

[admap]

Thanks for the information... really good to know!
Makes me feel better after not hearing from any of the 3 schools I interviewed at...

 

[dRdNs]

interviewed today. They've sent 20-30 acceptances on the first and will continue to accept an additional 10-15 each time the adcom meets

how often do they meet? once a week?

 

[needa20]

i know on Fridays, not sure if its every, every other...

 

[Emutt]

My AADSAS was udated on the first to "offer made." I interviewed there Oct. 15th.

 

[deus85]

I forgot to ask but not sure how often they meet. I asked the tour guide after but he wasn't sure eithe. Nevertheless I was very. Relieved to hear that there are a lot more seats to be fill though most will go to sda applicants

 

[tryin2bepatient]

i wonder how many people they'll accept from the pre-dec 1st interviews...b/c if they're only accepting say 10/week...it might be awhile before they finish...

 

[deus85]

They will finish by April, so that's still 4 months to fill a class of 100.
The way they decide on acceptances is with the adcom getting together, and the applicant's complete file is projected in front of everyone. They will discuss on each applicant and decide. Once they vote and a decision is reached, a notice will go out immediately the following day to the applicant.

Total interviews last year was about 400.

 

[BadgerLoveSmile]

April!?! I thought waiting until the end of the week was torture!!! I can't even imagine waiting until April!!!! I might have to stop checking AADSAS, cold turkey, and just wait for the letter....I can't keep obsessively checking until APRIL!!!

Good luck everyone

 

[needa20]

to the few have gotten accepted, are you planning to attend LLU or another school?

 

[heatwheat]

What about if I interviewed December 1st? Do you think I would have to wait 'till April to get a decision, or do I have an equal chance to find out by the end of the year?

 

[deus85]

I interviewd december 2nd, and my interviewer basically told me he doesn't know when I'll get a respond. Basically between now and April. So I didn't pressure on asking for a more definitive time frame.

My tour guide, a D3 student, said he interviewed around this time, either in Nov/Dec (he couldn't remember), and got accepted in January.

One thing I forgot to ask is whether adcom will review the applications based on when the interviews were done (first come first serve) or they just pick from a pile of interviewed applications. Maybe someone could answer that.

Ya, I think thats pretty much what I wanted to know. If they just do it in order of interview date, I might as well stop stressing for a couple of months. Maybe someone can answer this. What is the LATEST someone interviewed but has been accepted? I know I saw Oct. 15 somewhere in this thread...

I'm thinking to go here or Michigan if I don't hear from UW. I'm an Inland Empire native, so it'd be nice to be back

I was there today for my interview and they told me they did send out a few letters, but only a few. I think they still have lots of interviews lined up.


good luck everyone!

How did it go?
I assume we will hear something come Jan

 

[creative8401]

i emailed my interviewed, he said that my app is in file for review, cindy told me that there will be 400 applicants for committee to decide, talk about some odds, and after that was told the usual, wait till april, wish they would speed up things, but oh well cant change that, thnx for ur responses, keep us posted

D1 at LLU here. Interviewed early Dec. Waitlisted around late Feb. Got accepted in JUNE. Some of you, BE PREPARED TO WAIT. Think about other things, like what you are going to do the moment you find out you got in. Or, if you are wise (like I was), start making plans for reapplying in June. You don't want to be stuck without a plan for next year. Needless to say it was a long spring for me, but a spectacular summer.

 

[Kokugeka Shiro]

lol...i really really doubt it...

Haha...well...I mean, it's not THAT bad, right? I lived in east Redlands until I was 12, which is actually a pretty nice area considering it's 909. But overall, I'd have to agree with ya

I mean a 12 year old can manage to stay pretty occupied with even the very very limited cultural/entertainment opportunities in the IE, not sure about now after having lived in Seattle and Tokyo over the past 9 years though...haha.

What's Riverside up to these days? I don't think I've been back there since I moved.

 

[LovemyScrubs]

i know on Fridays, not sure if its every, every other...

I guess I'll just check every Friday?! Waiting is NOT fun...oh well. Good luck everyone!

[SoCalBlondie]

Well thats good to hear.
I haven't really gotten any feedback.. So I just have to wait and see.
I think they they are waiting for my last semester grades to make a decision.


Your picture looks familiar..
Did you do Careers in dentistry this summer?

yup i did

did u?

didnt do so good on pat but was lucky enough to get perfect score on wax up...too bad only loma linda sees my wax up score

 

[dj kal]

Ya I called them yesterday and Cindy said the same thing.. they dont have a specific wait-time before hearing back about acceptance. So just kick back from now till April.. (and smoke as much as you can now!!!) lol

 

[BadgerLoveSmile]

Soooo....my status on AADSAS just changed from "Invited for an Interview" to "Received/Application Complete". I don't know what this means??

 

[LovemyScrubs]

Mine is like that too. It's been like that for a little while now. From what I've gathered, it means that your application is ready to be reviewed...but someone tell me if I'm wrong! Just means that your app. is waiting for a final decision basically.
Another LLU student said his status was like that for awhile before he was accepted--but I don't think that "application complete" necessarily means an acceptance.

 

[heatwheat]

yup i did

did u?

Blondie, I must have seen you there (at careers in dentistry) as well. I was one of the other ones that got a perfect score on my wax up. Did you like your EPIC? lol.

 

[dennisDDS]

yup i did

did u?

Haha that thing was so hard...
It was my first time i have ever tried to make anything with wax
and my contacts were all dry from the long day.

Somehow I managed to get a 20 not perfect like you guys..

but i can't complain.


Hopefully we all make it.
