Hey, I got my supplemental application on September 29th, and the admissions office emailed a confirmation they received it on October 5th. They invited me for an interview on October 7th. I hope this helps!

Hey! Those are not bad stats at all! But I have one question:
What is your residency?

From what I have gathered UF is very OOS unfriendly, on their website they state that about 90% of their class is comprised of IS students. So for someone like me, who is OOS, my chances are fairly slim. Here is the link to their admissions stats if you'd like to check it out:

2023 Entering Class Stats » Office of Admissions » College of Dentistry » University of Florida

Residency of Enrolled Students GPA of Enrolled Students DAT Averages of Enrolled Students Demographic Description of Enrolled Students Dental Experience
admissions.dental.ufl.edu admissions.dental.ufl.edu

However, if you are in-state then you should have a fairly decent chance with those stats. Provided of course there aren't major issues in the rest of your application (like shadowing, experience etc).

Hope this helps!

Thank you so much for your reply! I am actually out of state but I went to Nova Southeastern University in Florida for undergrad. Do you think that would help?

It might! I can't remember if in the supplemental or main application there was a place to list ties to Florida (I think there was?), but if you listed your undergrad it may count. :shrug:
Of course I am just speculating and don't know for sure.

In any case, at this point I guess all any of us can do is just hang tight and see what happens, though I know that's the hardest thing to do right now.
But hey! At least you haven't gotten a rejection letter! ;)

I wish you and everyone the best of luck! We'll all make it in somewhere!!

OMG you said it! I don't know what is taking schools so long! I thought with these stats I will have at least 3-4 interviews by now. But so far, just UF (had my interview yesterday tho and it went well I think!)

I just want to say I interviewed at UF this week and the interview was NOTHING like SDN makes it out to be. It was relaxed, easy going and the interviewers were so nice and comforting. I have had 3 interviews and I felt the best about this one by far! So if you have one coming up relax! there’s literally nothing to be scared about :)

Glad to hear this! I have one coming up this week. Would you say it is more conversational than questions and answers?

Are you guaranteed with an interview once you get supplemental app invite?

I don’t think so but I think it’s a realllly high chance and it happens quick. I got an interview invite 24 hours after submitting the supplemental

Hey friends! Just out of curiosity, do yall think we will be notified on exactly the 15th of December? I feel like in previous years when the date has been December 1st, people usually find out on december 2nd. Does this mean we will find out on December 16th? I know its all speculation but just thinking out loud haha.

Yeah a lot of people will hear Dec 15th. Idt it's always December 1st; it changes each year and is usually either the 1st or 2nd.

Hello! After receiving the supplemental application, I am curious what the activities section is inquiring about. Obviously, the school has our activities on our AADSAS app, so is this asking what we are planning on doing this summer? (It says while not in college). Or what we plan to do before dental school in general? Thanks in advance for the help!

answer it as honestly as possible, i think I wrote only one sentence. If you have volunteered say you're continuing volunteering, if you are still shadowing put that. If you plan to travel put that! If you're still in school, just list your extra curricular activities. I know it seems redundant but just inform the school that you are still continuing the activities you listed and are continuing to learn and improve yourself even after already submitting your app!
 
Did anyone send UF a letter of intent/interest? Other schools recommended it but UF didnt mention it.

UF specifically said they didn’t want us contacting them till decisions were out in my interview and that follow up emails were not needed

Just wait for next week. If I recall right, they don't like students reaching out constantly.

I sent a thank you letter to them 2 weeks after I interviewed last cycle (july) and included it as a letter of intent. Then I updated adsas with new activities I was doing 2 months after the interview. I always got an email back from Sarah saying they added it to my file. If you want to specifically send just a letter of intent I would say you should but I wouldn't send anything other than that. in less than a week all of your lives are gonna take a huge step toward your future! Pm for any questions about UF! #gogators

Will they email us a link? Can’t find it via search.
 
As arguably the most competitive school to get into in Florida, I'm guessing this school barely has any waitlist movement. A waitlist is basically a rejection in most cases. I know a very small few who do get into this school through waitlist, but it is very small and usually ends up as an unsubsidized seat (instate paying outstate tuition). Can anyone weigh in on this? Thanks!
