me too! yea it's crazy how some of these schools wait until the last minute but you're never out until you get a rejection haha. I've heard their interview is pretty relaxed vs. other schools. Are you waiting to hear back from other places/on the wait list anywhere?

Did anyone here choose temple over pitt? Just looking to get some feedback to help my decision.

I did before I chose the school I'm going to now. Feel free to shoot a PM!
 
I got accepted last week, and I went and dropped off my deposit on friday. I still havent gotten a confirmation e-mail from them. Tomorrow is the deadline for my deposit. Does anyone remember how long they took to send the confirmation out?

In terms of tuition you cannot beat Pitt in state or out of state, Temple has a moderate clinic but it really depends if you want to live in northeast Philly for four years. In terms of housing, student population, and cost Pitt has the advantage hands down, but again, some individuals value local community dental experience over social life while in dental school, and they cant be faulted for that. It all depends what you're looking for.
 
i Received acceptance from Temple few days ago.

I am from Ontario, Canada and trying to complete background clearance for FBI and Pennsylvania State police. Since I am from
Ontario and when I enter my permanent address the state drop down does not have Ontario as an option.

Can someone from Ontario let me me know, how they resolved this.

thanks in advance

Hey, I am from Ontario as well. If you're still not sure: it needs to be sent to an American address of someone you trust and they'll have to mail it to you so you're able to submit the forms.

Hey, I am from Ontario as well and that is in fact what I had to do. They responded quite quickly via mail to the US address.
