Lol he said week, so maybe they are starting sometime this week and not necessarily today :/week or today? lol

Here's what I think ( Just my reasoning )
1. They are on an extended thanksgiving break.
2. They are making the candidate selections today, and calling tomorrow!?
3. They are telling everyone they call to not post on SDN.
I think every dental school's admissions office has a lot on their plate, but this Dec. 2 date has been common knowledge for a long time now. To not hear anything today when practically every other school has just seems neglectful.My guess is that it's just taking a while to get in touch with people. The administrative office staff has a ton on their plates right now, and they prefer letting applicants know by phone rather than a mass email. It's slow and it sucks to wait, but be patient.
I guess I'm not surprised it's taking them a while. Remember how hard it was just to call in their office and schedule an interview? It took me countless times to get through.
Unfortunately, I think that #3 is a definite possibility. Not to be negative, I think there are a number of equally plausible explanations, but I'm not ruling out #3. Let's hope it's 1 or 2.Here's what I think ( Just my reasoning )

Lol no. I doubt that. I was just kidding around 😀Do schools actually go out of their way to tell their applicants not to discuss their status on SDN?
Haha I really doubt that! I was just messing around. What's the point of telling applicants not to discuss their status on SDN. 🙂Unfortunately, I think that #3 is a definite possibility.

I can't really think of a reason honestly, just got spooked by that comment. 🙂Haha I really doubt that! I was just messing around. What's the point of telling applicants not to discuss their status on SDN. 🙂
Hah sorry, I was trying to light the mood with a little joke 🙂 I don't see them calling today. It's 3 PM there, and they haven't started. ( at least i assume they haven't) haha 😛I can't really think of a reason honestly, just got spooked by that comment. 🙂
Just got off the phone with Roseman!! 3:40 PM MST...everyone go grab your phones!!
I am starring at my phone!!!!Just got off the phone with Roseman!! 3:40 PM MST...everyone go grab your phones!!
Are you from East Coast?Just got the call 25 minutes ago! They're calling now. If they are going in alphabetical order my last name starts with E, although I have yet to find any schools going in alphabetical order. Good luck everyone!!! WOO, it has been a great day!
Has your aadsas portal status changed?Just got off the phone with Roseman!! 3:40 PM MST...everyone go grab your phones!!
Ok. So, I got another missed call, again w/ no voicemail (WHY?!), but I googled the number and it's from Roseman....Amanda Farr....
So...is she the one who's making the phone calls?
I wish I could just answer my phone. But my job won't allow it :/
Well at least you're 99% sure you're in!
I doubt they'd give up your spot, sounds ridiculous if it's true. I don't think it would be inappropriate to return the phone call though since you were called twice now? Also what does your last name start with? I was browsing other schools and I don't know if they call alphabetically (like someone else mentioned) but it'd be nice to see what groups have been reached.Lol, right? Would be in inappropriate to call the number back? Or should I just wait it out until they try again?
This sounds a bit paranoid, but do you think if they can't get a hold of you they give up your spot to someone else?
Do you have a voicemail?I got a missed call from a 801 area code but I'm in class and can't call back. Ugh, I'm hoping its Roseman!
Status is still the same "Invited for Interview"I doubt they'd give up your spot, sounds ridiculous if it's true.

Did anyone who got accepted have their AADSAS change?
Do you have a voicemail?
Nope, no voicemail but I called back and the machine said she was busy (forgot who) but it was Roseman. Can I assume thats an acceptance?

Congrats to those accepted (or missed a call from them ). What date and time did you interview?? Thanks!
So are we to assume that who didn't get a call did not get in?
What about the above few comments about getting calls and getting in?No one was called today.
Disappointed about no call too 🙁 hopefully there's still a chance..
Come on guys. Keep your hopes up! There's no way they called all 80 students they said they would call, and only 5 of those are SDN users.. Just seems too unlikely! They've probably yet to call the majority tomorrow. In addition, more than half of those will end up declining, which means there's another round of acceptances in January, or whenever deposits are due!!! I'm just trying to stay positive, although deep inside I too am very disappointed.🙁 Very disappointed

Right, like the people with 8+ interviews that I talked to at the interview, and those who get in to their cheaper state schools. we have to keep strong in this torturous waiting game.last year 228 interviewed, 175 accepted, only 80 out of those 175 students actually decided to go
so yea more than half
