I'm guessing you're fine since it's still pre-december and by your interview date, no seats will be filled yet

The choices I got for my interview were in the first week of November. Does this mean my chances of getting accepted are slimmer compared to those who got earlier dates?

Is it normal to only have December or later interviews available for early August invites?

Biological sciences. So basically all upper level biology courses
 
Does anyone know what style of interview is held? Close/Open file? 1 on 1? 2 on 1?

You're thinking too much into this. If they invited you, they're definitely interested in you attending their school!

Do you guys think it is too late to apply now? I already applied to the schools I was planning to apply to. I was just thinking of adding this school.

Where do you actually go in the morning? The dental building is across the street from the main campus, but the email mentions Barrel 1 which is on the main campus.

You go to Barrel 1 in the morning. They will take you in a shuttle/small bus to tour the dental institute

MWU AZ College of Dental Medicine Hold Before Interview Notification

I received an email with this subject saying that my application is on hold due to missing information, but I am pretty sure that all of the information is in the application. My latest DAT was verified from AADSAS, i have 4 rec letters, all of my transcripts are verified, and i paid the supplemental application too. Im currently taking a couple of classes only then graduating.

Any information on what is missing?
 
I have my interview here in about a month. If anyone has had past interview experience, I would very much appreciate any advice or heads-up information!

Your interview is with two faculty and one D2 student. They each ask you a series of questions. They take notes while you answer. I don't think they had your file there, but they had definitely read it before you could tell. They are super nice and the questions weren't absurd or tricky, just about you and your personality and how you handle situations. The interview lasts about 30 minutes and its the last part of the day. I enjoyed the day :)

No problem! At yes. They give you a schedule when you get there, but basically it's an introduction, then an introduction by the dean, then a couple different tours, a financial aid session, lunch, and then interviews :)

I interviewed there yesterday as well. Everyone seems really nice and the students seemed happy. It's a beautiful campus with awesome facilities. The interview is fairly relaxed, but be prepared to defend your position on ethical scenario questions. I had some grilling from one of the interviewers.

Email them and ask, they were quick to let me know what they were missing when I got the same email.
 
I got an app completed email on 07/31, then received a "Waitlist for Interview" email 08/01, and just now on 10/10 I received an interview invite! The dates offered were way in the future in February 2020, so I don't have the highest hopes, but I guess they're going through their waitlist slowly. Another applicant I know also recently received an interview invite and his dates were in January 2020.

Thank you!!! No, I didn't, I actually don't know what a letter of interest is :oops: I figured it was a soft rejection but that I'd wait it out and see what happens.

Thanks! Honestly no idea - I read that some other people who got waitlisted emailed them to ask about it, but I just kind of sat & waited to see what they'd do. I don't think it would be a bad idea to reach out and ask though.
 
Received an interview invite here after being placed on the waitlist

Just some encouragement for those that were waitlisted. Two days after my DAT was verified (I took the exam on August 30th but submitted the app in June), I received an email from the school stating that I was waitlisted. I was super upset because another school has invited me for an interview three weeks before I even took my DAT exam. An hour after the waitlist email, I went on their website to check what the status was saying and it actually said that I was invited for an interview. This was just an hour later. I thought it was a mistake, so I emailed them and asked. They replied by saying that they did waitlist me initially but changed their minds and decided to extend an invite. Don't lose hope, if they waitlisted you, it means they are interested. Also, so many students cancel their interviews due to the cost of travel. Mine was supposed to be in January, but I kept checking their site and I was able to reschedule for October.

keep checking their website under the interview tab. If you click the reschedule button, it will show available dates. I was checking every hour or so but eventually was able to reschedule mine from January 14 to next week. Best of luck!

Whoa, thanks for letting me know -- I'll check on it!

Edit: do you mind telling me where the reschedule button is? I don't see the option for some reason.

Usually the reschedule interview button is next to the cancel interview button, but current it is not there. Keep checking because it has disappeared before. I was able to change my interview from January to October

when you go onto their student portal website, there is a tab that says Admissions, under that, it says Interview scheduling, once you click on that, you will see the date of your interview and a reschedule button. I had mine today, the school is amazing!
