Anyone can't sleep?

Ya, but the decisions I’m waiting on don’t come out until 7-9 EST time :/

 

[deleted925864]

No email at all. I was expecting an email for acceptance or waitlist/under review. Nothing changed in my aadsas portal either. I guess i'll assume I'm under review?

 

[toothgal73]

what is the interview style at Temple?

15 minute open file interview with a faculty member or alumni! It’s also video recorded to show to the admissions committee later if needed 🙂

 

[wisdomtooth422]

Accepted via email at 12 am EST! Best of luck to everyone, and congrats to those that received acceptances so far!!

Any ethical questions?

 

[toothgal73]

Any ethical questions?

yeah there was one, they ask you it as like a multiple choice question on a piece of paper during the intro at the beginning of the day, and then basically just asked why you chose the answer you did in the interview!

 

[deleted925864]

Any ethical questions?

I didn't get any that were difficult. They gave a little sheet with a few scenarios but they were pretty simple and straightforward.

Hey everyone, I’m a D1 at Temple. Congratulations to everyone who was accepted! The majority of you haven’t heard back from temple yet, so try not to worry too much. Most of my class are students who got their acceptances in the subsequent waves. I know it’s an incredibly stressful process but it will work out. Also, if you have not yet typed a letter of intent, now would be a great time. Good luck to everyone, and feel free to ask me any questions!

Examples?

think similar to what CASPer presents you with, only this time it's multiple choice

Thank you for the reassurance , was there some sort of pattern as to when they offer?

 

[paradise56]

I have no idea but like I said they come in waves. You can check the previous years SDN forums and look at the dates that people announced they were accepted. That would probably give you a rough idea of the pattern.

 

[timotime!]

Does anyone have an idea of when they will let us know if we are rejected or on the waitlist?

Hi! Thank you for the reassurance. I checked the 2023 acceptance page and saw that you posted on December 3rd of 2018 saying your files were "received/ under review". Would you mind stating when you received your decision confirmation? Thank you again very much!

What is showing up on your portal? Mine is still invited for interview...

I believe it was around the middle of January.

Thank you very much for all your help! This gives me so much more hope

Same here. Nothings changed. As for now, no on really knows what that means. It might be a 'soft waitlist' until the status is updated.

 

[liverpool2019]

Just got an email, placing me on the waitlist. keeping my fingers crossed, does anything know if they wait until more interviews to look at the waitlist?

I think it holds no weight one way or another. They can take you off the waitlist whenever — as soon as mid-December or as late as summer. Only positive is you didn’t get rejected and only negative is you weren’t already accepted. Expect like five more of these emails if you’re still waiting for Temple for the next few months.

 

[deleted925864]

Also just got an email that I was waitlisted. A little disappointed it's not an acceptance, but happy it's not a rejection! Will be keeping my fingers crossed

Edit to wonder how many people are usually waitlisted? I believe temple has pretty high acceptance stats once you get an interview (I've heard 80-85%), I wonder what percent of people get off the waitlist.

 

[futuredentistboii]

does anybody if temple waits until april 1st to start accepting people off the waitlist ??

 

[deleted925864]

@paradise56 was waitlisted and it looks like they got an acceptance mid-January. I'm guessing they may pull a few people off after the December people decline but it looks like the majority of people were accepted off the waitlist in the Spring based on the 2023 thread.

Hi! Do you happen to know when the fall 2020 semester starts?

Hi!!, first of all thank you for keeping my hope alive. I have been put on the waitlist for temple. I have few questions about letter of intent and what should I do to get off the waitlist, so I was wondering if I can DM on facebook and ask them one on one. I really want to go to temple for several reasons and getting the acceptance would mean so much.

They start in August

Is temple not conducting any post December interviews?

What made you think this?
They always conduct post-Dec interviews

 

[Navimoto]

Waitlisted

 

[ochemprincess]

Will they rescind my acceptance? I might earn some type of C in a science class this semester. It's not a pre-req/degree requirement but I'm freaking out.

Probably not, call the school and ask to confirm.
