they do not start sending interviews until september. If you already did the supplemental and click status it says that! they also call to set up the interview.

Yeah Correct, they don't start interviews or even looking at applications until the new incoming class is situated.
 
Good luck to all the applicants this year!!! I am a first year, so if you have any questions let me know! I am looking forward to seeing you guys at the interviews!!

How’s your overall experience been with the school? I’ve heard some awesome things about the Charleston area. Is it really as awesome of a place as it sounds?

I grew up going to Charleston, it really is a wonderful place. It has a unique classic charm, great shopping/food, and very safe where MUSC is located. I was very impressed after my tour of the school as well!

Thanks for answering some questions!
How are you liking school so far? Do D3 and D4 students have an overall happy attitude?

I'm sorry, I should have specified! I am a current applicant. I was able to tour the school during MUSC's Dental Day. I did speak to many students, however, and everyone seems very nice! It felt like a happy school environment.
 
Anyone have anything other than "none?" based off last year they gave invites on 8/10 but their portal said they would make calls in september?

Did anyone else's status change on AADSAS today from none to "Received/Application Complete"?
 
I got an application received/complete email today and my status on AADSAS status changed to that too

My DAT scores are waiting to be verified so my app says "none" still as well.
 
Do I have a chance applying here as a NC resident? Since I know they prefer SC residents.

I did, I realized we posted that at the same time lol. No interview invite either. Seems like a great opportunity to show face, but I am also oos and not sure if its financially possible to do that and then come back again for an interview if one is offered :/

Yeah, well I'm IS, so I should probably go to this. I was just wondering if they send this invite to everyone who has applied to the school. Or maybe just more local applicants.

Good luck to all the applicants! MUSC is amazing and they make the interview process feel like you are at home. Don’t be nervous some of us D1’s will come into the room to answer any questions while we are on break from histology

Current dental student here with some advice: I know you will feel awkward and out of your element during your interview day but the best advice I could give would be to talk to those current students who stop by the interview room. Bring questions for them. They will not judge you and they know exactly how it feels to be in your position. In the end, the conversations I had with current students ended up being the factor that pulled me to MUSC over the other schools I got into.
PS- I'd bet this is the most relaxed & fun interview you will ever have!

Nevermind, I answered my own question. I looked at last years thread. It looks like they sent some more out late September-early October.

Do you happen to know the stats for the 2023 class?
 
Is anyone attending dental day or has anyone attended it in the past? Is it worth it to go?

It is always good to show your face around the school if this is your #1 pick. You will get to meet some of the faculty who are on the admissions team. I personally did not do dental day but it does not hurt to do it!
