not mineAnyone's status change?
status just changed to wait list... Im hoping that doesn't mean anything yet
Not sure how much longer I can wait. They don't start sending things out till later in the afternoonMine too. They said at the interview that everyone would be on the wait list until accepted. I’m hoping this status changes again today.

Based on last year's thread, we should expect something in about an hour or so. God, I'm so nervous.
Hey guys, I'm a current dental student here at USC. I wanted to wish you guys good luck on acceptances, and to those of you who do not hear back today; don't worry! I remember when Dec 1. came around last year and I found out I was wait listed at USC, only to be accepted a few days later! Many people in my class got accepted after Dec.1 or even interviewed after January. It really is an amazing school that challenges you, there are some people who do not like the PBL process, but honestly I've learned so much and the information has truly stuck with me. With that being said, PBL is not for everyone. I love working with my PBL group on cases and understanding how to treat a patient- not simply memorizing biological pathways or diseases. All my best to you all!

No I didn't get anything today. Just my status changed to Wait Listed.Did anyone who didn't get an acceptance get any email at all from sc. I only ask because last cycle people had gotten an email to be on some ranking list.
Excepted by email yesterday, but i will be decline for other school. PBL curriculum is not for me
i declined my interview back in september after i read more about PBL.
seems like you're teaching yourself even though your spending an insane amt of money
Right? it's kinda ridiculous to pay $150 K for learning it yourself. I think USC have high reputation just like Louis Vuitton vs Coast.. after all they don't make any different in term of quality... USC sim lab seem outdated compare to other school. What i looking for school make my money worth after 4 years i be armed with swish army knife have a knowledge of little bit of everything so i can go to work pay off debt. For example Midwesterm Arizona the facilities is state of the arts, new technology and learning constantly updated even though still cost over 400K but at least you learn everything includes implant. I've been also in Harvard and in reality they also not all that you thought it would be. Being in the school less established you will have many chance open up for you to learn a new technic be cause they are trying to improve the reputation too.. i think it would make your money worth it
Yeah I agree with you, I feel like schools that are less well known or established will be looking after their students better and be better receptive to feedback
I got accepted to USC but I'm having second thoughts about the cost for PBL as well. I was asking the student ambassadors and some general students during the interview day about their opinion of PBL and they seemed hesitant on it too. They said it takes some time to get used to but eventually its pretty good. Although it still feels weird to me that you pay so much money just to mostly teach yourself about the didactic portion
I got 4 other offered, and midwestern arizona is one of them, i am torn between other 3 against Midwestern Arizona.. due to the fact that after 4 years with Midwestern Arizona you would be well rounded General Dentist and right out the bash you can start making money to pay off debt. If i decided to go with Midwestern I will be working for a while and come back to get into specialist.
For those that got in, would u mind telling your age and ur stats?
why age lol
haha. I only ask because I heard that age plays a role in the admissions process and usc mentioned that their average age is about 25. Just trying to figure out why I didn't get an offer yesterday. If you don't feel comfortable saying it thats fine.why age lol
Hey guys!! I'm currently a student at usc dental (D1) so feel free to ask questions about anything I remember how stressful the application process was last year
Hi, Thanks for the info. Do you know how many seats are filled up till now? Also how many more interviews are they going to send out? ThanksHey guys, I'm a current dental student here at USC.

How do you feel about PBL, is it really us paying big tuition to teach ourselves about the didactics? How is the school culture like and how do you feel about professors in terms of being caring towards students about their learning? How are you liking LA and the overall USC campus? Thanks!
Hi, Thanks for the info. Do you know how many seats are filled up till now? Also how many more interviews are they going to send out? Thanks
Thank you very much for your info. I an so happy to hear that many of your classmates got accepted in Spring and Summer. Waiting for more info from you. Have a good vacation.Hi! I don’t know how many seats are filled right now or how many interviews they will still have. However, I do know most people last year interviewed between January-March. I interviewed end of January and got accepted in beginning of March. So assuming this year is similar to last year, there will be a lot more interviews and A LOT of people will get accepted during spring. I know several people in my class who even got accepted during the summer months. We finished finals yesterday and I’m going back home but I can try to find more information about this year’s interviews etc when I get back in January.
