look at all these applicants with crazy DAT. I've always heard UoP loves high DAT scores 🙁
Hello!!
Has anyone sent in any information to them outside of AADSAS?
I want to update them on my summer grades but don't know how

🙁 Nothing since active review e-mail on 7/21. I guess there goes my chance.
I think I applied a month or two too late (Active Review on 9/14)...
Last time I talked to them, I think it was 11/7
I have an interview for 11/3
That's great! They must have called me a bit later, because they didn't offer 11/3 to me!
What are your stats? I have a 3.9 GPA and a 22 AA and am wondering if I'all have a chance for a pre-December interview.

I think you definitely have a chance! My DAT is around what you got, but my GPA was lower. Keep up the good work and be positive! 🙂

well... I didn't even receive that so... congrats!!!!!JUST GOT AN E-MAIL FROM THE DUGONI SCHOOL OF DENTISTRY!!!! WOOOHOOO!
Opened it up.
This is what I saw:
wow congratulations! mind telling me your mail out date and stats?
Just assume 4.2 with 27AA with a mail out date of a week ago😉
Yup, around lunch time today.

I wish my stats were that good lol
You have fantastic stats, dont ever say that. Go enjoy your interview!
Do they say this at the interview?
For the class entering fall 2014, they interviewed 188 IS applicants and accepted 159 (according to the Adea Official Guide to Dental School). The OOS statistics were similar. So if you get an interview, there is a good chance that you will get in. Hopefully we can get an invite too haha. My mail out date was early july though so i'm probably not getting one =/
Last cycle, they interviewed 260 and accepted 144.
Still a relatively high ratio. I've heard many schools that interview over 600 that take less than 100.
Wow. I was looking at the ADEA Guide I have and it showed 104 OOS interviews for 102 acceptances.
Do these stats (especially the # interviewed compared to the # accepted) sound correct to you?
Total Applications: 3,016
Total Interviewed: 298
Total Accepted: 292
These are what the ADEA Guide claims for the class entering Fall 2013.
For a class size of 144, accepting 292 students means an approximate yield of 49.3%, which is in line with several other dental schools.
Wow congrats! Mind telling me your mail-out date? thanks
I don't really know what the mail-out date was, but hopefully this timeline can help:
I submitted my AADSAS pretty late, Oct. 3rd.
Got an email that it was received by UOP on Oct. 17th, another saying it was under active review on Oct. 21st.
Although I would take my case with a grain of salt, I went to UOP's pre-dental program which guarantees an interview I believe.
Oh haha thanks for letting me know. Congrats!
Could I ask what your stats are?
Of course, 3.65 overall GPA, 3.53 BCP GPA.
DAT scores: 21 AA, 20 TS
PAT 23
QR 23
RC 24
Bio 20
Gchem 19
Ochem 21
I definitely could have done better in sciences. Wish I put more time into that.

Don't worry, I know people who interviewed in March and got in, as well as UOP undergrads who had to apply multiple times. But when you do, enjoy it because it's like going to dental school Disneyland! 🙂
Also, everyone in my interview group had gotten the call no more than a week ahead of time.
