I submitted my application on July 11th, and it was processed on August 18th.Thats amazing! if you don't mind, could you say when you submitted your application and when TMDSAS transmitted it to the schools? Thank you so much! .
Huge congrats to you!!! I'm really hoping to get an invite there as OOS! May I ask stats and date you received the confirmation email that your app was complete? Any special connections to the school or state of Texas?OOS student that got an interview invite today!
Thanks! I am over the moon!This is hands down my dream school :3Huge congrats to you!!! I'm really hoping to get an invite there as OOS! May I ask stats and date you received the confirmation email that your app was complete? Any special connections to the school or state of Texas?
That's awesome! And ahh yeah I am really hoping for the best here, I received my app confirmation on August 7th so hopefully they are still inviting OOS (3.99 oGPA, 4.00 sGPA, 24 AA/24TS, and no significant ties to Texas but I am a Spanish major and want to work with Hispanic populations in the future)Thanks! I am over the moon!This is hands down my dream school :3
I had a 4.0 GPA, 20AA, work in an nonprofit dental clinic, research done in undergrad, study abroad, and active in pre dental clubs/ honors college. My whole family lives in Texas (except for my immediate family unfortunately!) but its where my parents originally were from. I don't believe I mentioned that my relatives all lived in Texas, however. I received my application confirmation on August 16! Good luck with everything!

May I ask, what's your interview date? Did they give you multiple dates to choose from?
When is your interview?Yes anyone want to give a quick rundown on how the day goes?
You're chances might be slight but you never know, you might be one of the few ones they pick! If you got an interview I would definitely take my chances and go!Should OOS bother to go to the interview?
Do you think so? I almost was gonna retract my app b/c I think the chance is so low. They did offer me an interview, and I am wondering whether to go b/c airfare is so expensive.You're chances might be slight but you never know, you might be one of the few ones they pick!

I had an OOS interview who also only accepts very few OOS but I went to it anyways because even though your chances are slight, you never know you could be that one person that gets in! I would say take your chances, yes fares are high but if you get in you'd be saving a good amount of money! What state are you from if you don't mind me asking?Do you think so?

Ahh, that makes lots of sense.

Does anybody know wether to be panicked at this moment, this is my first choice and really hoping to get in.2nd round came today and still no response
Just curious, why is it your first choice? Are you wanting to do research? Don't panic yet. I have a friend who was accepted to SA late February a couple years ago.Does anybody know wether to be panicked at this moment, this is my first choice and really hoping to get in.
The interview was very laid back. You will meet in a room, introduce yourself (they asked us to say name, major, where we're from, and one interesting thing we did in the past year), and then listen to a few people talk about the school and the new curriculum. You will have lunch with students and then interview with one faculty and one student. The questions I was asked included: Why San Antonio? What do you think of volunteering? What do you see yourself doing after you graduate dental school? What is your biggest strength? What made you interested in pursuing dentistry?Interview coming up, for those who interviewed how was the interview? any questions I should brush up on? and what about this school did yall like the most
Thank you my friend! I wonder why they said choose the other that is so odd. Sounds straightforward this will be my 5th interview so I think I will do fine just worried about some of my friends said they were grilled but looking forward to itThe interview was very laid back.

I guess I liked the new clinic building the most and the fact that they are updating their curriculum. However, THREE students at UT Health San Antonio strongly advised that if I was accepted to Houston or Dallas, to choose one of those over San Antonio (I took that as a major red flag and decided to choose Dallas). Ask the students questions that are really important to you and your education. In the end, we will all be dentists! Best of luck at your interview.
I can tell you exactly why the students I spoke to suggested I choose another school. This is summarizing a few points made by current students:Thank you my friend!
