[hellofuturedentists]

Didn't get into Columbia or UNE, but interviewed at both and still under review at both. Informed both today that I'm withdrawing my application to speed up the waitlist!

You declined Columbia without an answer? Curiosity didn't get the best of you? You're a better person than I am lol

@rxdmx372 is going to UConn, a phenomenal school, so I think he's ok with it. Lol

Curiosity killed the cat, and I am an avid supporter of all things cat.

I will be dropping Pitt & Creighton and will be attending Minnesota.

 

[GAdawg94]

Why is everyone dropping Case?

 

[GAdawg94]

I didn't apply there because it didn't seem like a good fit, I applied to Creighton instead. I can hardly find any info out about Creighton admissions (their deadline is March)

 

[hellofuturedentists]

Mailing my letter to decline Maryland tomorrow. Hope it goes to someone who is a better fit there than me

 

[Count_Plaqula]

You from cali?

 

[dentist32721]

Giving up Nova, Stony brook, Buffalo, Case, Maryland, and BU
Can't decide between Tufts and NYU but still waiting for UCSF

 

[pikachurro]

You from cali?

Yes - I live an hour away from Pacific, but I've never been to school farther than 45 minutes away from my house, so New York would be an interesting experience to say the least.

 

[ultimateballer07]

What are your career goals @pikachurro ? Do you want to specialize and focus on more academic dentistry and research? Or do you prefer clinical/general dentistry? They both are great but they offer different things

 

[hellofuturedentists]

Dropping VCU soon. Loved the school, but realized it wasn't for me. The spot was meant for somebody else

[Confused1617]

Do we have to email them if we decide to drop?

 

[nonociceptors]

Do we have to email them if we decide to drop?

Notify them somehow. Unlv mails a form with their acceptance that you can return saying you won't attend, other schools I emailed.

Why did you decide not to attend unlv?

 

[nonociceptors]

[DentalFever]

Giving up my seat at UAB.

Where are you going Dr. Yap? I wish I was AL resident, because the in state tuition would be hard to give up. I also got accepted to UAB but I'm OOS

It was a very difficult decision. Congrats on getting accepted out of state already! I'm sure that's difficult. I'm going to the same school I went to undergrad for and they gave me a scholarship, which helps.

 

[adadental]

Dropped NYU, Buffalo, and BU. Also dropping Tufts at the end of this week.

[Fightingsiouxyaya]

Mailing in Minnesota deposit today... still holding on to Oregon because it was so awesome. 90% MN though

Don't pick UDM because I want your spot. Just kidding. Choose whichever is cheaper. Both schools have outstanding curriculums and produce excellent dentists.

 

[danchoi03]

Dropped NYU, Buffalo, and BU. Also dropping Tufts at the end of this week.

Which school are you going? You are dropping Buffalo which makes me wonder what school that you got into.

 

[danchoi03]

^Similar to me. Will be dropping penn, harvard, ucla, columbia...they just can't compare to Touro. Woohoo Touro class of 2035!!!

I like your decision. I already put my deposit for Touro, but I will be in the class of 2021. Hope to see you there.

 

[Legacy382]

Mailing in Minnesota deposit today... still holding on to Oregon because it was so awesome. 90% MN though

Sent both my Minnesota deposits last week.

[swindoll]

[Confused1617]

If the deadline is Jan 10 for deposit, can we just send it like on Jan 2 or should we let the school we are sending it so they know we are interested

 

[marina415]

@swindoll, may I ask why you chose Columbia over your state school? I have to make the same decision between Columbia, VCU and Michigan (w/ scholarship). The choice is especially difficult because I don't know if I want to specialize.

 

[GD2015]

Cancelled my UNLV interview for Jan. 15 and withdrawing my application from ASDOH, LECOM, and WesternU.
