Congratulations! Please share how many dental schools have accepted you on Dental Decision Day. Have you accepted the offer from the University of Detroit Mercy School of Dentistry for the Class of 2028 (D1)? Please share your thoughts. Thank you so much, and I wish you a wonderful day!
 
Withdrew and won't be attending january interview, good luck everyone!
 
I was accepted on the 15th. Does anyone here have any advice on how I can contact someone that currently goes to UDM? I have some questions

Does the portal show three deposits for everyone? I think we only have to submit the $1500 one right?

I read in an another thread that it helps to be a Muslim to get admission into this school. Are there too many Muslims in the admissions/interview committee??

idk bout this one!! i think its relative to the population. california schools have more east asians, southern schools have more black students, makes sense that detroit wud have alot of muslims.

i am muslim and was rejected last week

I am familiar with UDM. I don’t think there are many people on the committee that are Muslim or that they have a preference for Muslim students. It has more to do with the area. Dearborn which is right outside of Detroit had the largest population of Muslims in the US.

I was told my personal statement was good and I knew my professors very well so I'm assuming they were good LOR. I sent a letter of interest updating my work hours and volunteer hours.
 
Wondering this too. Has the weightlist moved at all? Also does anyone know how large Detroit's waitlist usually is?
UDM waitlist is traditionally very large, but moves more than other schools...
 
Just a quick question I am on the waiting list, and since it's already mid-February,. Do I still have a chance of getting an acceptance? I am a non-traditional student. Should I start preparing for the next cycle? My stats are 3.72 GPA, 19AA, and 19TS.
