Business casual is totally fine. I visited Western on June and I'd say around half did so. The other half went in t-shirt, shorts, and flip flops which IMO isn't a good look haha

D1 here, just wanted to say that one of the best things about this school is that the faculty REALLY cares a lot about the students. I recommend you go to WesternU Preview Day to check it out! Definitely one of the nicest schools I interviewed at since facilities are pretty new! Sim lab is also really nice too compared to other schools with janky labs, lolol.

 

[roy williams II]

Hey guys, another D1 checking in here. If you guys are in the area this Saturday I highly recommend you stop by WesternU Preview Day this Saturday! You can get a feel for the school as well as meet some faculty! Trust me it's never too early to try and have your face recognized by faculty. I'll probably be there to help answer questions about D1 too. If you guys still have questions feel free to PM me! Or the other guy dkhong03 (whoever that is).

So are the dentals students really as awesome as this Western University youtube video?


Because as cheesy as it is, it's GREAT.

I'm not sure I'm cool enough to attend this school. That was awesome.

 

[DC206R]

Pretty funny. I like the "distal" part.

You should come to our campus to see a live performance.

Hi guys! I attended Western Preview Day today and the admissions director said that interview invites should be sent out in 7-10 days.

 

[takeitlikeaman]

No. I just took the first available date. I am sure that there are more dates. Good luck!

Did your application status change at all on AADSAS or their portal?

 

[SDDDAT]

Did your application status change at all on AADSAS or their portal?

I don't think they use AADSAS for status changes, at least I don't see their school on my AADSAS

 

[jylkim]

Like SDDDAT said, they don't use AADSAS for status. I don't see western on mine.

 

[htdt]

Western does not show up on my AADSAS but I received an "Application Ready for Review" email from them yesterday. Hopefully an invite is coming soon! 🙂

 

[californiway21]

I can't even get onto their portal anymore. It says server is down... is anyone else having this problem?

I was able to login as of 7:58 am in California.

[californiway21]

Is Western at lunch now? Lol.

 

[zastrownaut]

just got the "app is still with admission committee" email, anyone else?

Just got the same email. Is this a soft rejection? ):

 

[kanek2013]

I'm hoping that this email just means they are done calling for the next few days (long weekend)


Sent from my iPhone using SDN mobile

 

[FunkyzeitMitBruno]

I just got it as well, also got it my first cycle and never received an interview later. I think its just one of those purgatory emails. Not an interview, not a rejection.

 

[tlnjd117]

I just got the same email! Anyone inquire?

 

[raijosh]

Got the same email. Who knows? I applied and submitted the secondary within the first few weeks of June.

We shall see...

 

[takeitlikeaman]

Just got that email as well. Im assuming it will lead to a rejection

 

[californiway21]

It's not a waitlist. My friend applied to Western and was accepted last year. They're just being nice enough to essentially say "hey, don't freak out, you'll get a response soon but they either haven't got around to your app yet or they are still in the process of making a decision"

She got this email around October last year iirc

This is from last years thread regarding the email.

 

[dentalgem524]

Thank you for easing my anxiety lol

That gives me hope

 

[californiway21]

Here is another quote from last years thread to ease some more nerves.

Just got the call-Interview Oct. 3rd

got the application is still with admissions email Sep 2.

 

[Μοlar Βear]

Same email .. hoping to hear more opinions from previous applicants. Unsure if I should feel it's a soft rejection when they've added "your app might not have been reviewed yet" ... it's still a rather cryptic email..

Edit: just saw the above messages .. thanks for the good info!!!

 

[nonociceptors]

This is from last years thread regarding the email.

me again

heads up, they send a lot of those messages and it's really, really annoying

 

[DSNCSUN]

and if you didn't receive this email? means they haven't even seen it?

 

[ILoveChickenNuggets]

When did you submit your supplement? I thought everyone that hasn't gotten an interview yet received this email....

 

[californiway21]

I received the "application has been processed and sent to the college" on 7/29. I have not received an interview nor the email. So I'm confused as well with the status off my app.

hmmm....are you thinking about contacting them and asking them why you didn't get the email.

 

[californiway21]

hmmm....are you thinking about contacting them and asking them why you didn't get the email.

I'm going to hold out and hope that they have made a decision and will call me tomorrow. If not, I'm planning on calling them on Tuesday.

 

[DSNCSUN]

I submitted my supplemental a while back but my DAT scores didn't get to them until late Aug. Maybe the ones who didn't receive anything are gettin the rejection

Oh, jeez. I didn't think of that! Lol

 

[TrueMenace]

Got the "Application Ready for Review" email on July 21, no response since.

 

[tlnjd117]

Yeah I'm assuming they do that so people don't start emailing them and calling, once we realize they have started sending out interviews lol! Stay calm guys 🙂

Just got a call for an Interview on 10/1 as well!
