***The Official University of Iowa Class of 2021 Interview/Acceptance Thread***

[dentaldreams2021]

I'm not declines, or cancelled. Just they aren't going to actively review me anymore. Notify if I do get reactive

So deferred just means that the file won't be actively reviewed anymore? Does it basically mean waitlisted, or is there a difference?

Around 2 or 3 pm, I didn't submit my application until September and didn't interview until late October.

Hopefully it's nothing to worry about. I'm starting to freak out

I think that Iowa accepts most in-state after break, so I wouldn't lose sleep over not hearing yet. Best of luck!

Are you going to attend? I declined my acceptance from Dec 1st as an OOS and looks like you got it! Congrats!!

 

[misshea]

I work in the College of Dentistry

Would you happen to know when the next admissions meeting is?

 

[dentaldreams2021]

For those of you who received emails did it say "deny" or "defer?" Is there a difference?

I got an email saying I've been "denied" but they will notify me if they actively review my file again. So the reviewing of file part seems consistent with what others have said but I wanted to confirm the wording of deny vs defer

Deferred for me. It specifically said not denied in my email.

I am not sure - I am deciding between Ohio State and Iowa. Iowa offered me a scholarship so I'm really conflicted! Glad you freed up a spot

 

[j_butler15]

Is there an Iowa Facebook page yet?

 

[ds1670]

End of the month is what I've heard

My friend whose boss is on the board said they had one last Friday.

 

[Buck-E-Badger]

Search "The University of Iowa College of Dentistry Class of 2021" on Facebook and it should show up.

 

[hawkeye712]

Congrats to those who have been accepted!

My brother and I are looking for another roommate in a 3 bed apartment for the upcoming school year. He's currently a D1 and I'm a D2. We live across the street from the school (on Lincoln Ave). Rent is cheap and comes with two parking spots. Message me and we can discuss further. Thanks.

Has anyone heard anything recently?

Nothing yet

 

[ds1670]

Is it safe to assume we're waitlisted if we haven't heard back yet?

 

[NeurosciDent]

For everyone who is still waiting, don't count yourself out! I got accepted today at 10am.

 

[WheatLom]

Put on wait list after being deferred.

 

[lgh123]

Got an email this afternoon indicating that I have been wait listed. Does this mean that all seats have been filled by selection by the committee or that all have been filled and accepted by applicants?

 

[Kustom]

Also waitlisted from deferred.

 

[ath94]

I haven't even received any email from Rachael yet, so nervous right now!.
