Does anyone know if unc makes you find your own patients?
They do not. They provide them for you 👍

I am in the same boat as both of you as well. Have y'all heard anything yet? Really hoping there is going to be another interview before december 15thHonestly on the same boat as you, I was waitlisted last year and haven’t heard anything yet, despite only adding good things to my app. My guess is that this year’s candidates are that much better, which is fine, and awesome for them! But it is disappointing, hopefully an invite for November or January is in our future though!! Stay strong!
Nah haven’t heard anything, unlikely that they’ll be another interview date unless they are really cutting down on the amount of ppl per interview date pre-December, classes at UNC end right before thanksgiving so doesn’t seem like they’ll have interviews again till January. For those that have interviewed, how many people have been at each session? Typically it was around 80 last yearI am in the same boat as both of you as well. Have y'all heard anything yet?

It was about 80 people per session this year tooNah haven’t heard anything, unlikely that they’ll be another interview date unless they are really cutting down on the amount of ppl per interview date pre-December, classes at UNC end right before thanksgiving so doesn’t seem like they’ll have interviews again till January.

Yeah, so next chance would be January but even that situation seems murky considering they’re starting the semester almost three weeks into January. Let’s just wait and hope for the best!It was about 80 people per session this year too
There's an interview on the 14th of NovemberNah haven’t heard anything, unlikely that they’ll be another interview date unless they are really cutting down on the amount of ppl per interview date pre-December, classes at UNC end right before thanksgiving so doesn’t seem like they’ll have interviews again till January.

Is it 80 for the afternoon and morning session each?It was about 80 people per session this year too
Yeah but those invites were already sent outThere's an interview on the 14th of November
Is it 80 for the afternoon and morning session each?
Ah so they did 4 pre-December sessions with 60 in order to get to 240ish like they usually doI believe it was 30 in the morning and 30 in the afternoon
Mine has been "received/application complete" since around august or september. I have not interviewed or heard anything from them yetDid anyone’s status change from Received /Under Review to Received/ Application Complete?
From invited for interview to Received/Application Complete. Anyone else?Did anyone’s status change from Received /Under Review to Received/ Application Complete?
what? I have never heard this. People have a while to put a deposit down so it doesn't really make sense...... does it?So I have seen that unc calls all oos on the first day and if they turn it down the spot goes to an in state. Do we think this is true and if you’re oos and don’t get called on the 15 all hope is gone?
Highly doubt it. I'm an in-state student but the process is a phone call notifying that you've been accepted, get an acceptance packet in the mail in the following days, and then you have a month to put down your deposit to accept the spot.So I have seen that unc calls all oos on the first day and if they turn it down the spot goes to an in state.

If you're OOS and don't get called on the 15, you still have a chance of being accepted!
@zToothinator Can you comment on what Cavity_Search said in a separate thread? How bad has clinic been from the D3's youve talked about? Also, is there any info on why the dean is stepping down and who may be replacing him? Any info on how this may change the trajectory of the school in terms of moving to Pass/Fail, curriculum revamp, etc.?D3 at UNC - clinics have been TERRIBLE. The school was completely shut down from March to August - then only D4s saw patients in August. We've been at 50% clinic capacity this whole time. Only in September D3s got to see patients, and we'd only get to see 1, maybe 2 if we're lucky, patients a week. Some weeks we got ZERO patients. They've made our D3 class assist D4s and residents for probably over a 100 hours this semester. Majority of our class has never done a single endo procedure, fixed or removable procedure, or extraction. Also our dean announced today he is quitting at the end of this year.
he's returning to faculty and working to "advance global partnerships", an interim dean will be appointed to start in January@zToothinator Can you comment on what Cavity_Search said in a separate thread?

I haven’t talked to D3s recently so I can’t really comment on how clinic has been for them, but clinic is definitely operating under reduced capacity with the D4s being prioritized. We (D2s) have been told we may start clinic in the spring but I’m not optimistic since admin has backtracked multiple times throughout the fall. Supposedly the reason clinic is operating under reduced capacity is due to COVID restrictions but we haven’t been told what the exact restrictions are nor what the plan is to increase capacity. Apparently there are lots of patients wanting/needing treatment but we can’t fit them in...@zToothinator Can you comment on what Cavity_Search said in a separate thread?

Mine switched to under review as well, not sure if it really means anything thoughTo those that have not received an interview yet, is your status just sitting at received/app complete? My friend’s switched to from app complete to under review again and I’m curious if that meant anything
Mine also switched yesterdayMine switched to under review as well, not sure if it really means anything though
I know they do 240 predecember interviews (60*4 interview dates this year or 80*3 interview dates last year).Does anyone know how many interviews conducted vs. acceptances? For example, do they accept about 1/4 of those interviewed pre december? or more than that? I read somewhere they only do around 300 pre december interviews. And they accept around 100, leaving the chances of being accepted after a pre december interview around 1/3. Does anyone know if that’s true?
Same here! See you there!Just got an interview invite for January 9th!
