r u sure of this number....how do you know about it......i dont want to start getting hopeful without reason
 
Guys I am not trying to give any false hope to anyone....was trying to pass info which I have.
As of today, 12 students have joined the IDDP class of 2013 group on FB.There may be more candidates who got accepted but are not in the group.
I wish best of luck for all of you who are waiting.....I know how it feels 'cause not long ago I was in the same situation.Keep your hopes high🙂

thanks for replying really do appreciate it...........
 
UIC is calling people from the waitlist. I got the acceptance letter last wednesday by email. Since I will go to a different school somebody else will get an acceptance email during next days. Good luck to everybody!

thanks for replying really do appreciate it...........
 
Thanx for letting everybody know
 
i hate to be the one giving this news ....but as of now the waitlisted candidates have already been called for the time being.....unless someone doesnt join from them others would be called......i talked to braulia and she told me this🙁
 
They said about 40 candidates were on waitlist.So I wonder how many have been accepted? I am waitlisted too....
 
it's strange that from so many waitlisted on sdn,only one got the offer and though he/she refused....no one we know on sdn got the offer🙁. i AM very sad

i am not sure, but i have heard it again and again that UIC is always scared of giving admission to highly qualified candidates. perhaps scared of their knowledge.
 
thats what i felt too that if people get accepted we would see more banana dances on sdn......😕 i am wondering too how many waitlisted persons were called....seems like not many from the forum
 
well, i guess the people who have got offers are not on the forum! i spoke to braulia yesterday, she said if places open up again, they would be sending out more offers! so can only keep hoping even though chances are pretty slim now!

why will u say that? we have a ton of people who atr so over qualified they should be given DDS right away
 
well that is what i was told too. but perhaps they are just scared of overqualified and knowledgeable people to come in to the program as these candidates know a lot already either by skill or knowledge and they do not want to train them into the system b/c they feel threatened.

You will be bored at the dental school when they make you prepare cavities on typodont🙂
 
that is what i do not understand myself as to why 4 different people who had good knowledge of the program would tell me that. i always heared good things about UIC IDDP, the interviewing faculty and have come across highly qualified people in the program😕.
 
I spoke to Braulia this morning and she said 5 people have been called from the waiting list...........
 
did she say anything else like if they r going to call anymore or if all the 30 seats r confirmed.i have been trying to reach her as wellbut always get voicemail.
 
Is this the same wait listed people that foriegndds was talking about around the 1st week of Nov or is this the 2nd set of waitlisted people being called?
