Hey everyone

I didn't see one for the class of 2024 so I thought I would just start it. Feel free to ask each other any questions on this thread regarding the application cycle.

Last year's thread: ***The Official UConn School of Dental Medicine C/O 2023 Interview/Acceptance Thread***

Link to interview prep: University of Connecticut School of Dental Medicine Interview Feedback
----> Be sure to give feedback on your interview to help future applicants! :)

Good luck!

I don’t even think they sent out invites yet. It seems like for the past 3 cycles they started to send out invites on or around 7/13, but I could be wrong.
Someone on the interview/ acceptance/ rejection thread posted they received a UCONN interview invite. CT resident though.

Do they let you know if you have been rejected. Worried since I haven't gotten an interview invite yet.

Kinda early to think that no? The year I applied they were sending out interview invites up until the first week of November or so.
 
Has anyone scheduled their interview yet? I’m having trouble getting in contact with the admissions personnel to schedule mine.

I was able to call Ms. Avolt and schedule an interview

Does anyone know if the letters of recommendation for Uconn have to be from 3 professors, or are two from professors and one from a dentist acceptable? Their website says 3 faculty members.
 
Heyy I got an interview invitation. I submitted 8/13 and I’m OOS

I submitted June 22nd and haven't heard anything back. I'm OOS but feel like I'm a pretty solid applicant, so should I call admissions or something??

I’m the same way. And I haven’t received anything... I don’t know if I should call or wait.

They keep sending out pre-dec interview invites until like late Oct/early Nov.

for those that have interviewed, were you able to/ did other applicants bring guests?

No one brought guests in my case. I'm not sure there would be anything for them to do that day. It's a long day - it may be best for them to stay in the hotel or walk around West Hartford (which is a lovely town!).

I had a "guest" come with me, though not directly into the admissions office. He just explored the public areas of the medical campus and ended up hanging out in the cafe and using the free wifi. He enjoyed checking out the school, so I think it would be fine to bring a guest with you, just not to the actual interview program.
 
Does anyone know if they are done with Pre-Dec interview invites?
 
They aren't done with interviews yet, just received one! I don't believe they have post-Dec interviews but I may be wrong
