OHSU sent an email to me a month ago, saying that they require a dentist recommendation letter, so they were putting my application on hold for winter review. I didn't get my dentist to send the letter yet, lmao. So, I'll be a super late applicant. Woop.
I heard from my friends they didn't get interviews until February and March and still got in

In-State applicant here! Still under review and waiting patiently! I've talked to my advisor and she said that OHSU is always very late, like so late they're on their own schedule... so don't worry too much if you haven't heard back (easier said than done) there is still a lot of time left in the cycle!
Yeah im in the same boat, im just SO ANXIOUS! Best of luck, I hope to see you this next year! My issue is my 3.4 gpa scares me! Hopefully it wont kill my chances since they've had some 3.6 and 3.7 averages the last couple years.
I have gotten interviews to a lot of schools except OHSU (and this is my state school). Does anyone know if they still have pre December interview spots left? Getting scared...
I'd like to assume so. It seems like they only sent one batch of interview invites so far
Ugh! Me too... I have been obsessively checking my portal but no changes yet! Yeah my gpa is also lower than their averages the last two years but hopefully they will give us a shot! Hope to see you around next year as well!
How was the actual interview and how did you prepare?
My friend (who is also applying) just called and was informed that they have already scheduled all of their pre-december interview dates :/
Damn, what a shocker 🙁
Did they tell you how many of those were IS/OOS? It seems like they're filled up on pre-Dec's already

This scares me 🙁
Trying to figure out what I should do for the rest of the year as I've not been scheduled for any interviews yet. Go back to school for post grad credits? Keep working at a dental office? Start studying for the MCAT?
Good luck to all the applicants.
The school is beautiful, and it is a great program.
I interviewed at OHSU instate last cycle. If you have any questions, let me know!

Did they mention any issues with the patient pool?
They said they don't have any problem with the patient pool. The school is connected with the clinic, so you have good connection there.
However, there are some students every now and then saying that they might have problem with it. Or they might not get the procedures that they need because classmates do not want to switch. Bla bla
I guess it depends on who you hear it from.

Many get multiple interviews and acceptances and have other schools they'd rather go to. Especially those with very high DATs and GPAs.
To my understanding, they initially interviewed quite a few OOS.
Usually if you receive a high competitive pool, you will receive an interview soon.
sadly hasnt been the case for me yet 🙁
Just hang in there. I know they interview later in the cycle so it's not late yet. Also, they interview very few people per interview so it's gonna be a while too.
Interview invite!!!!
Congrats! What dates were you given? and are you in/out of state?
Not everyone that get accepted will attend the school, so they accept more than the class size to account for people that will reject their acceptance.
Invite for interview. Instate.
Congrats! May I ask what your stats look like?

Im instate! When I called, they told me to pick dates that work best for me (they interview everyday but Wednesday) and then they would check to see if they had any spots open....so I have no idea how many dates are left.
High 3.6
Congrats! I hope to be there with you soon. When were you notified and when will you interview?
still no interview invite, I was e-mailed about being in the competitive pool early September... OOS WA resident with 3.5 Overall, and 3.5 Science, 21AA
Same here... got the email, no invite...
Did anyone else's portal change to application complete after they interviewed?
Does anyone know what time you could start hearing from the school tomorrow? I couldn't find it in the "What time exactly" thread, and the forum from last year is missing.
After 3PM
Email around 3pm
Yes
No :/
Still nothing
