I got rejected also today 🙁
Did they specify a reason for your rejection in the letter ? or did they just say due to competitive applicants

Nothing personalized, general rejection letter in the mail stating there is a high number of very competitive applicants this year.

When did you submit our application, if you don't mind me asking?

 

[EndoDreams]

When did you submit our application, if you don't mind me asking?

I completed the secondary application on 8/1/15

 

[Bucks783]

I completed the secondary application on 8/1/15

Do you mind sharing when your app was complete and your AADSAS mail out date/stats?

I am curious where they are at timewise

 

[YEP3456]

i also just got my rejection letter, submitted 2nd batch 🙁

I find it extremely hard to believe that you got rejected with a DAT score like that... If you don't mind me asking, what is the weakest part of your application or why do you think they rejected it?

Probably my 3.0 GPA. I think the rest of my application is pretty strong (300+ hours shadowing, volunteering/mission trips, ~17 months of dental assisting)

I have similar stats to you. Have you gotten interviews anywhere else if you don't mind me asking?

Thank you for your message. Has anyone been notified yet?

 

[creativedesign345]

How is Midwestern notifying applicants for offers of admission tomorrow? Email? Phone Call?

 

[dentlab243]

Has anyone's midwestern portal been updated?

 

[imn0tokei]

[dentlab243]

[imn0tokei]

They did say that it's tonight. Idk, maybe we're waitlisted?

 

[chocogramcracka]

[dentlab243]

Did they say something like your checklist would be updated if you were wait listed? Or something like that?

 

[chocogramcracka]

Midwestern portal changed! Put up a deposit information on the home page!

 

[dentlab243]

[Beeluna]

do you think they send acceptance based on interview date or alphabetical order?

 

[MeoMeo]

do you think they send acceptance based on interview date or alphabetical order?

Likely interview date. I was in the first group.

 

[imn0tokei]

do you think they send acceptance based on interview date or alphabetical order?

Not sure about the order, but definitely not interview date and alphabetical order. We were the last batch to get interviewed and my last name is towards the end of the alphabet.

 

[pomegranate14]

I haven't heard a single thing from this school after submitting my supp app months ago..

 

[Tshore20]

Just got offered an interview. I've already been accepted elsewhere but I'm interested in this school. For those who have interviewed, what are some pros and cons?

 

[koschucs]

Got offered an interview invite today! Anyone interviewing January 25th ?

 

[Tshore20]

That's when I scheduled my interview!

 

[B28]

Got offered an interview invite today! Anyone interviewing January 25th ?

I got offered one today as well! Planning on scheduling it either 25th or 26th

 

[B28]

Can anyone give any interview tips? Things to say/not to say. Would like to hear from those who got accepted as well! Please 🙂

 

[Blackhorse90]

I'll be denying my acceptance to this school, so another spot will be opening up

 

[Chetmt]

[andrey9111]

Still have not heard anything back. My portal just says "application complete," and it has been about 2 months now. Any ideas why the school might be slow?

They must not be very interested...I am in the same boat

 

[koschucs]

I submitted my secondary November 9th

You probably heard/read this so many times, but all you have to do is "be yourself". They give ethical questions so there is no right or wrong answer. Just know how to justify your answer and you'll be good. The interviewers were super friendly and you won't feel any stress while doing the interview. Goodluck on your interview 😉

 

[Zach_Murphy2]

[theAngler]

Got an interview invite here. Anybody who interviewed already can tell me about how they like the school?
Also, if someone got to visit the Arizona campus already, can you tell me which one you liked better and why?

 

[yolo1234]

I liked the Arizona one better, maybe because I went there first.

People seemed genuine and more approachable

 

[creamcheese15]

what about the programs/curriculum? I've heard they are different. Does one offer more clinical? different courses?

 

[greengreengreen]

I've received promo offers by email for master's degrees and such but otherwise no response from this school yet. I wonder if they're hinting at something hmm...
