For those who received interview invites, did your status change to under review before interview invite?

For those who received interview invites, did your status change to under review before interview invite?

No.

Received/Application Complete → Invited for Interview

Will it be a bad sign if my aadsas status chaged from “application complete” to “under review?”

No

When did you submit the application if you don't mind sharing?

 

[aspiringmich]

When did you submit the application if you don't mind sharing?

I submitted mine on 3rd week of June and verified a couple days later.

 

[dentaldude7]

Will it be a bad sign if my aadsas status chaged from “application complete” to “under review?”

Tbh I wouldn’t worry about aadsas status … I never found them to be very accurate as many schools don’t update it or don’t match it to the current state of your app.

 

[constantlyconfused]

I will say that last year Michigan was one of the only schools that was accurate in updating for me. Status immediately changed to Invited for Interview once they sent the email. But in the case of under review or received, I don’t think it matters much

 

[predent724]

Has anyone received an interview recently?

 

[iloveteethh]

Does anyone know when we might hear something back from this school lol

 

[ToothGod43]

I think they usually send more out the last week of October... usually on Wednesdays so hopefully this week!

How's the public transportation in Ann Arbor? If I were to go there would I need a car?

They do and Ann Arbor is pretty bike friendly too.

You can make it to and from class without a car but it’s nice to have one. I’ve had mine and appreciated it for getting groceries but I also know people that live right in the city that have never had cars… personal choice I guess. The public transportation is all free for students too

 

[teficlac]

Thank you for your responses! I appreciate it

 

[letmein_pls_]

[predent724]

Any July or August applicants hear anything back??

 

[futuredentistyay]

Anyone that's applied in june still waiting to hear back? Esp as in state?

 

[Boofy]

Just as a heads up. In our class I would say many IS students were accepted in the post Dec group. I wouldn't say this is normal by any means, but I would say a large number of IS students were interviewed in the February date. This is also when a good percentage of attending students were accepted. Trust the process

They, along with most schools, conduct interviews until around March or April latest. This is due to the fact that the next cycle opens up in May

Oh I just saw the last year thread saying that the waitlist moved on the last week of feb/early march. Thanks for the info. Trying to stay positive!

Sorry I should have been more specific. Interview invites are early January, with the interview being middle of January, and decisions go on early Feb. I wasn't aware they offer interviews after this date, and the classes were determined via waitlist movement after the Feb decision day.

Posting for someone else who is IS with great stats and is wondering the same. Feeling ghosted…….

public schools usually have 1 or 2 interview sessions in january/february before shutting down and going with waitlist...

If it makes you feel better, I’ve heard that they save the last interview session in January for mostly IS applicants. Many of my classmates were in the last interview groups in Dec and Jan.
