too late to apply?
Started by nogn1225
I'm taking the DAT on July 31. What I suggest you do is turn your application in now b/c it takes about 4-6 weeks for AADSAS to process. So by the time your application is processed you will be getting ready to take the DAT. Turn your application in now or ASAP so you don't have to wait 4-6 weeks for processing after you have finished the DAT. It also depends on which schools you plan to apply to. Remember, each dental school has different deadlines! Good luck.

Heavens no! Apply and you'll be fine!
The end of August would not be too late to take the DAT, although I would try to apply by the end of July due to processing time.
I think the most overblown thing on this site is people acting like you have to apply in May. I have someone in my class that applied a week before the deadline and still got in. I think your DAT score and GPA have a lot more to do with getting in than whether you applied in May, June, July, or August.

You're fine. I just got this from Oregon 🙂
