Just curious if anyone has recieved an interview invite for January. I still have not heard anything and am starting to get a little bit nervous.....
 
If you read the thread from last year invites for the January interview went out mid-December.
 
BEST OF LUCK to all waiting to hear something tomorrow! It's an exciting time for sure. If ya get the call tmrw be sure to celebrate accordingly, and if ya don't, take the day to celebrate the fact that you're determined as hell and you'll make it in soon!!!!!
 
I am sorry if this is dumb, but is it true that at 12:00 am on December 3rd AADSAS will post all the schools you are accepted to? If so, does every school do this, or could I be surprised with a phone call from a school that didn't have it announced on AADSAS?

In short, will I know where I am accepted in 2 hours 33 minutes?
 
Not necessarily. And not at UNC for sure. Some schools update the portal and AADSAS will post decisions from those schools at some point (I think tomorrow morning, not at midnight, but different people say different things). Other schools don't use the portal much (UNC among them) and will be issuing acceptances in other ways.

The adcom meeting for UNC this year was November 28th, so phone calls should be going out starting early tomorrow morning. There likely won't be any activity on the portal from UNC.

Other schools are case-by-case. Some call, some email, some use the portal, some don't. It's not really standardized.
 
So if you don't get a phone call at all tomorrow, is it an assumed rejection if you had a pre-Dec interview? Or will they at least email to let people know of that? :/
 
They meet again in late January and will consider all January interviewees and not-yet-accepted pre-December interviewees at that point. So all hope is definitely not lost if you don't get in tomorrow -- there's another wave in late January / early February, you just have more people to compete with.
 
I dont think theyll be sending out rejections in December. Someone plz correct me if Im wrong.
 
Ah, okay, that is a little relieving, but I'm still pretty scared.

Cool.Congrats on getting the OOS interview! Do you remember Dr. Wilder saying that interviewees that dont get accepted today are thrown into the pot again in January with everyone from the final interview date? So by Feb, nearly all offers have been made.
 
So we'd get a call today if accepted, not an email? Would we get an email if rejected or would it be like someone else suggested above about just not hearing anything?
 
I think that's right....(I'm not sure about the rejected email...I think it might be just mail)

I don't care if they send a freaking messenger pigeon...I just want to know one way or the other so I can go study.

Yes they call to hand out acceptances. Im not sure about rejections, usually schools send them via snail mail.

Why??

And yeah, I remember Dr. Wilder said that, but I can't handle it. If I don't know by the end if today, I might go bonkers. *whimpers* My schedule next sem varies depending on whether UNC wants me. A huge diff. T_T

Because my portal status never changed for them, so over the past few days I've been seeing this thread get bumped and wondering if other peoples status has changed.

What classes do you have to take for them?

Thinking that maybe someone just got a call or something (and we haven't yet)....


And dear God, same here. I already registered and registration is closed. I will be fine if I know either rejection or acceptance before Jan 10th or so when registration opens back up....If I don't know anything by then, I have no idea what I will do as far as scheduling...
 
You guys are not alone. I'm also waiting for the call...

We have talked about this before, right, Seahawk? The whole 3+1 program or something?? Excuse my bad memory.

I need to know around that time as well. Otherwise, I will be taking 3 classes for no reason or too early. I was about to take 21 hours, but decided to push it to summer, should UNC want me to matriculate with a BS.

@ shootingstar: same here! My friend just called me, and I jumped up to get my phone, only to be disappointed. Haha

To finish a BS before next Fall, I'd switch from Bio to Gen science major. Bio requires too many oddly scheduled classes and loopholes to jump through. But if they don't need a BS, I will take an easier sem, stick to Bio.
 
I think today's situation might be a little different than in years past because members of the Adcom are making the calls instead of a staff member.

We had a brief chat about that I think....But yes I am trying out the early applying thing just because I already took my DAT and my stats are good...

If I was to get rejected, I have to take a certain class to get my degree on schedule in 2014...

If I was to get accepted, I have to take a certain class to complete the dental school prereqs by next year...

I'm hitting both classes in off the semester so there is only 1 offered of each and they overlap ...

Yes, I'm in the same situation.

One of my schools has started calling... I need to get off SDN... Too nervous and distracted to study.
 
Hey guys, just a heads up to calm your nerves...I heard from an inside source that UNC may be a tad late in getting out acceptances this cycle so don't freak out if you don't get a call by the end of the day! Best of luck, now go study for finals 😛
 
When you say late, do you mean like 10 oclock or next week?

I talked to Dr. Wilder a couple days ago and he said it would be on Dec 3rd.

Thanks for letting us know! I am so anxious, I have been sweating all weekend long I don't think this is gonna change anytime soon.
 
Not too sure but if he says it's gonna be the 3rd then we can assume it'll be today...but nothing's ever certain 😛
 
UNC still has another wave of acceptances around Feb. 1st.
So there arent any rejections until after the 2nd wave. (as far as i know)

so be calm. you've got 2 chances.
 
Just got an offer from UNC this morning via phone call! Congrats you guys!

I am also waiting to see if i get a phone call.... is it the adcom all together calling people or will they continue calling people all day individually? Also --- can someone provide insight as to whether its okay to call them and ask what your status is today? I just dont know what to do besides wait around all day and am not sure if its acceptable to just call them?

It's probably ok to call, but wait until later....

Only 1 person has reported a phone call and there are a lot of us waiting on here.
 
what does yalls AADSAS statuses read? Mine says "received/under review" -- then another message to the right...
 
I'm not applying to DS until next year, but a friend on FB said he got an acceptance call from UNC about an hour ago. Best of luck to everyone!
 
This may be a bit much...but what was the first letter of your friends last name, and what about you student? Alvin?

A lot of schools have been doing it like that apparently...
 
Anybody else hear anything yet? This waiting is killing me regardless of the outcome...
 
Yeah I have no idea either. Knowing that they've already made calls and not hearing anything yet is killing me. Anyone who's currently at Carolina, check your connectcarolina homepage...at the bottom, do you see that it shows that you applied to unc sod? i've never noticed it before and am wondering if it means anything haha

I am also a UNC student, and I also have that on CC. I am wishing so hard that it means something, but it only refers to it as an application. So I doubt it is significant.

Honestly, accept me or waitlist me UNC. Just put me out of my misery.
 
If members of the adcom are the ones calling, I can see it being a little more scattered. Depending on who gets your name, you may get a call in the morning or not get one until close of business. Who knows.

Trying to relax but UNC is my #1 and this is just painfully stressful. I know most of y'all are in the same boat. Hopefully we'll all hear soon!
 
I honestly don't think it matters, however I wouldn't call during lunch hours. I'm fairly certain they're going to give you a generalized answer that will only increase your anticipation. I called like 3 times last year in 2 days and they said the same thing each time.
