In state. Career changer post-bacc with BA in Economics, 3.45 undergrad gpa. 4.0+ postbacc gpa. Gpa averaged to 3.6 and studied my butt off for an AA 27.

Hey could you tell me when they processed your secondary?

 

[californiway21]

You got your pre-December interview with them, congrats! If you don't mind, could you let us know when UCLA showed up on your AADSAS as "Received/App Complete"?

I just looked at my desktop portal and the date is officially 8/16 for the status change.

What should I do if I forgot to mail my official transcripts for the interview? I have pdf versions.

We all mailed in the transcripts, but one of mine didn't make it out in time. I just brought it with me the day of the interview and Noemi was fine with it

What are the transcripts though? High school or college? Noemi never mentioned transcripts to me.

Edit: If you just received the email invitation, then the email may not have come yet. Noemi sends out the interview invitation, you email to accept/reject, and once you accept, she will send a follow-up email with more information.

It should have been in your interview confirmation e-mail.

"1. official high school transcript (not required if you graduated in a foreign country)
2. official undergraduate transcript(s) from the school(s) where you have completed prerequisites"

Have them mailed to:

Noemi Benitez
Admissions Coordinator
UCLA School of Dentistry
Office of Student Affairs & Outreach
10833 Le Conte Avenue., Room A0-111 CHS
Los Angeles, CA 90095-1762

Did you have the official or unofficial with you?

 

[changtw]

Did you have the official or unofficial with you?

Official. Ideally you'd have the official sealed, but Noemi is really laid back. Just talk to her, let her know, and she'll probably ask you to just send them in whenever you can or to. The transcript review isn't a big deal.

Hey everyone! I've been away from SDN for a while now. Please let me know if you have any questions in regards to the UCLA School of Dentistry or the Army HPSP and I'll do my best to help you!

It's a passion of mine! I reallyyyyy don't want to work on that full crown wax-up or study for anatomy right now! 😛

Ucla, just don't do it

 

[PLAQUE-MAN]

He's right, go spend twice as much somewhere else.

So, if you were invited for an interview from that point in the admissions process is it just about how well you do in the interview or do they reevaluate your application again along with interview feedback?

Thanks! My last name starts with K, so they're definitely not going in alphabetical order if that helps? Hang in there!

Does anybody know what we should do if we missed the call? I dialed back but the number directs to a generic UC admissions system number. I'd guess they would try again later in the afternoon or we could call them directly?

Would you be interested in starting a Facebook group for our class?

I think would be great to have you upperclassman in there to give us some advice. 🙂

We'd love you for it.
