Has anyone else received this message?

"Dear Applicant,

Thank you for your application to the four-year program at the Kornberg School of Dentistry. Please be informed that the school will not request the supplemental application and fee at this time. Please be assured that your application is being processed, and you need not call about your application status. Supplemental applications and fee may be requested mid-August.

Sincerely,"
 
Yup, seems like we won't be hearing about interview invites from them for a while.

Is anyone seeing a status from temple in the aadsas school decisions tab? Of all the schools I applied to Temple is the only one not listed, wanted to make sure it's not just me

They haven't even sent out supplementals yet, so wait.
 
Do I still just wait for the supplements to be sent out mid-August before I contact them because I didn't even receive the above email from...

Wait till mid-August and/or when you hear on SDN people receiving secondaries. I know you didn't receive an email but they made it very clear not to contact them about admission status. Sad I know...
 
Just saw this post 5 minutes after I called inquiring about admission status. Maybe I'll go have myself a cry.
 
I only left a message - I've tried calling for 40 minutes at a time twice before this. Either they're SUPER busy or they are stone cold serious about not calling.
 
I guess if its worth anything, Temple was pretty behind in comparison to other schools. Last year I received my supplemental the last week of July. I received my interview invite in late september and I interviewed in the second week of october (this was the first set of interviews offered). Good Luck, enjoy the rest of your summers!
 
got a message back - they are experience problems with their new payment system, so there's a slight delay. no emails have been sent out. we should get one shortly. they review everything in september. not sure why my phone isn't auto capitalizing.
 
I just got the supplemental and fee email too! the receipt says "Due to the high volume of applications, the review process continues through June" but is that a mistake?? June of next year?? 😱 😕🙁

I received the secondary application and fee e-mail and paid the fee in addition to verifying my basic contact information. It said that my secondary application was sent at that point. Does this mean there is no secondary application besides just paying the fee, or did I miss a link somewhere?

Correct.
 
Also want to confirm: this is just a fee and confirmation of contact information, correct? No essays?
 
Everyone knows that Temples Supp is short and to the point!
 
Whats the consequence of not selecting "anyone who inquires anout my application" when they ask "i hereby authorize..."?
Thanks in advance!

I think there's a chance that if you use a prehealth committee at your undergrad, and they need to access your application for some reason? i have no clue what... then it might not be good?
I have no clue 😛 i didn't want to cause any trouble so I just said to authorize anyone lol
 
Does this mean that Temple will show up on our school decisions now? Because they say to check the portal regularly.
 
When they say they want your AADSAS number, is that your AADSAS ID? I keep entering mine in but it always says AADSAS not found.

Edit: disregard this I'm dumb

Lol pretty sure I'm gonna look like an idiot on this one. I wasn't sure what to put so I said only authorize the following individuals and then wrote my own name... and that's the only name I wrote.
