[QUOTE="dentaldonut, post: "its been awfully quiet from Colorado since I applied early August ;([/QUOTE]

It’s definitely a stressful process. I know some people who didn’t interview until January and got accepted

For other schools, I know students who were interviewed well into spring and got accepted either on the day of the interview or weeks after

so if I haven't interviewed but haven't gotten rejected, does Colorado do post December interviews or should I just assume rejected?

look at previous year's threads
most schools do at least one or two january rounds...

 

[TheeRockChewer]

I think the school enrolls about 50% of their accepted students so that sounds about right

 

[wildcamo]

Accepted with scholarship around 1pm ET! OOS

 

[CherylSwoops]

Are they still calling? Seems like they’re done for the day….

 

[PresGirlToothDoc]

Is there an admitted students chat? or facebook?

Can someone tell me their interview format? SDN says both open file and closed file?

 

[TheeRockChewer]

Can someone tell me their interview format? SDN says both open file and closed file?

if thats the case, its probably different per session- i think mine was open.

 

[Dental_Dude120]

Can someone tell me their interview format? SDN says both open file and closed file?

I had 2 interviewers and they were both closed file for me.

 

[CherylSwoops]

I had 2 interviewers and they were both closed file for me.

Both my interviewers had my personal statement

 

[Dr. Garfield]

Has anyone received a post December interview yet?

 

[ToothfairyFutureDrG]

Has anyone received a post December interview yet?

I did, received it Jan 2nd

 

[TheeRockChewer]

When will the next round of acceptances come?

I know they have a 55% enrollment rate so there shouldn't be too many waves of acceptances.

 

[Mag33103]

They said around the 17th after my post December interview.
