Pretty sure that is something that NO ONE knows besides the admissions committee. All I know is that this will probably be the biggest matriculating class at around 400 admittances.Does anyone know what their accepted class size as of now is? (Don't scrutinize me if this has been answered already)

maybe because they are unqualified? just a thoughtI don't understand why so many people are getting rejected without interview or get waitlisted if they significantly increased their class size this year.
Anyone here had interview on February 8th?
Did you heard back from them?
Oh ok. Thank you for your reply
did you hear back?Oh ok. Thank you for your reply
Samedid you hear back?
The class size did not increase significantly.I don't understand why so many people are getting rejected without interview or get waitlisted if they significantly increased their class size this year.
They had 385 in 2014 application cycle. Not much of an increase in clas size honestly.I don't understand why so many people are getting rejected without interview or get waitlisted if they significantly increased their class size this year.
Does anyone know the official fb page for the class of 2021? Thanks
What other questions does the supplemental ask besides asking what other schools you applied to/interviewed at???
*edit
Referring to what they have you fill out on the day of the interview!
Dr. Mejia said around March 20thWhen do they stop interviewing people?
Thanks!Dr. Mejia said around March 20th
They could have some interviews after but the bulk of the interviews will be done around that time
Yes, I just received my confirmation today.Does the admissions office confirm receipt of deposits via email?
I just did too thank you!!Yes, I just received my confirmation today.
currently they are interviewing more students till March 20th. waitlisted students will be accepted starting april 15th.When do they typically start taking in waitlisted applicants?
Great info. Thank you! Question- If I wanted to update as an example shadowing hours, would I just e-mail the admissions office with my updated hours? ThanksHi everyone!
I have been getting a ton of DMs about getting off the waitlist so I decided to share with everyone! I interviewed on 12/12 and got waitlisted a week later via email. I got off the waitlist 2/10 via a phone call from Dr. Mejia. Here are the keys to getting off the dreaded waitlist:
1. EMAIL UPDATES (grades, Dean's List letter, new shadowing hours). This is a must. Email to the dental admissions email.
2. EXPRESS INTEREST IN THE SCHOOL. This is HUGE!! When Dr. Mejia called me she told me she is only going to offer me a spot if I would definitely enroll since the cycle is coming to an end and she doesn't want to waste spots. So make sure you emphasize that this is your number 1 choice (only if it really is though). You can also email Dr. Mejia stating this is your top choice.
3. Waitlist will begin to be reviewed end of March, early April. To my understanding, no one else has gotten off the waitlist so far so don't fret.
4. Realize that your grades aren't the biggest hindrance. You got an interview so you were appealing to the school. At my interview, my interviewer told me that if I got an interview, I had the grades for dental school. So keep that in mind. Don't give up. Don't lose hope.
ASK ME QUESTIONS!! I want to help and I know the feeling. Try to ask questions via this forum instead of DMs so everyone can see the responses (unless of course you have a personal question). Good luck
Hey yeah that's what I did! Anything helps.Great info. Thank you! Question- If I wanted to update as an example shadowing hours, would I just e-mail the admissions office with my updated hours? Thanks
I sent in my academic update first week of feb when they asked for it. When i called they said to expect to hear back by the end of this month. That could be either good news or bad news
I interviewed a couple of days ago and the admissions officer told me the school will be interviewing for another month (march).

Did you receive your interview invite after the academic update e-mail? If yes, how long did you have to wait before you were invited?I interviewed a couple of days ago and the admissions officer told me the school will be interviewing for another month (march). Keep your head up
I sent an academic update on 12/9 expressing why NYU stands out to me and what I've been doing (school-wise, work-wise). Once I finished the class I was taking, I emailed another update on 1/27 then got an interview on 2/1. So yes, I received an interview after the academic update.Did you receive your interview invite after the academic update e-mail? If yes, how long did you have to wait before you were invited?
Hi I interviewed Feb 17. How long did it take for them to get back to you? Thank you!
