Hi, I am an applicant for this current cycle and noticed there was not a thread. Has anyone heard anything yet?

Last year's thread: *** The Official Buffalo Class of 2023 Interview/Acceptance Thread ***

Link to interview prep: SUNY - University at Buffalo School of Dental Medicine Interview Feedback
----> Be sure to give feedback on your interview to help future applicants! :)

Can anyone speak on how the interviews/day went? Was it MMI? One on one? Thanks :)

it was an interesting setup, I liked it. Essentially put all the candidates (16) around a big table and had us talk to each other for a 3-hour block. During that time, interviewers would come in the room and call one person out for a 1 on 1. 2-3 interviews per person. We also gave a writing sample at the beginning but my interviewers did not discuss mine with me.

Does anyone know if all pre-December interviews have been given out already?
 
Got a "Continuing to Review" e-mail today (IS) :(
 
What does it mean if you didn’t get a continuing review email?

I imagine the school puts those applications aside and will revisit those applications on a later date. I have no idea, i'm just hypothesizing.

Silent rejection maybe?
I know some schools i applied to just finished their fall cycle and will start spring soon.
 
is it a bad thing if you haven't received a continuing to review email?

From past posts, it seems like it's better that you don't get it? but some got the email and were invited to interview and accepted so no I don't think its a bad thing. But I wouldn't worry too much about it.
 
when will they send interview again? You guys know?

Thank you! And no I never received one of those! I know of people who had gotten the continuing reviews emails but still haven’t heard back yet, but they were NY state residents. Not sure if that means anything or not

Hey guys anyone here received an interview with a sub 3.3 GPA? Also did anyone hear back in November thus far?
 
Has anyone here received any interview invites from Buffalo in November? My app was completed in October so I’m hoping its not too late for Buffalo. Also for those that did receive an interview, mind posting your stats? I did ok on the DAT but not the greatest GPA.
