Has anyone received an interview invite from USyd dental school?
Has anyone received an interview invite from USyd dental school?
you guys canadian?
Yep!
Did you apply to melbourne as well? I went to their presentation in Toronto last week and it was pretty informative.
@Nezura yeah I was there it was definitely nice to talk to prof hawthorne and matt!I couldn't make it. do u mind sharing your experience?
I just received my interview from Univ of Sydney this morning. It will be MMI! I am also from Canada! Good luck everyone!
Does the admission office release the interview invitation in one day? I submit my application forms on June 2nd and bit worrying for late submission. are they looking the carving section as well on DAT?

@ectf07 I wouldn't worry too much if you couldn't make it. It was nice to hear about the university of Melbourne's reputation internationally + the program but I don't think anything was said that stands out as information not being available on the website. The 1 on 1 session was helpful but that was because you could discuss your admissions statistics and if they thought you should be worried about any weaknesses on your transcript/DAT.
They talked about the medical + dental program during the information session that was available to everyone. It included the basic structure of the program (e.g. there are two 20week semesters with a 6week break in between and also you have summer which is mid november to feb from what i can recall). Accreditation was discussed as well but i'm sure you know that you can practice in Canada after you complete the canadian board exam. In Australia there is no such exam you need so you can practice right after you graduate the program. They talked about how you will get lots of clinical work during the program (esp after the first year) + you will be taught how to run a small business + there is a research component + the fourth year you will be practicing hands-on the whole year.
They didn't go into too much detail because it was about both med + dent so it was general info throughout most of the presentation but it was definitely nice to hear and I was glad to be there!
I applied through Australearn. It takes several more days to go through an agency to file an email. So I am hopefully expecting an invite for an interview next week.
I am getting curious to know how MMI will be done with Skype. Also, I think I read somewhere saying that The Sydney Dent offers are released within 24hours after interviews for international students. Can someone confirm this? It's very hard to believe.
I just received the interview invite today. For those who had the interview already, how was it?

No I picked June 22nd. I don't think Aug interview spots are available atm.Congrats! If you received the invite today, are u choosing dates for Aug?
I believe mine was submitted on May 4th although my final transcript with last semester's grades wasn't in till June 3rd.When did you submit your application?
Congrats guys! Got an invite today as well.
Did anyone else get an error message after the payment went through? I received an email saying the payment was charged but when i submitted it on the sit I was taken to an error page. I'm hoping that the site recognizes the payment went through because they say you will lose your booking time in 24 hours if you don't pay .
P.S. Super nervous about the MMI 80 minute interview.... need to find out how to prepare for this!
It happened to me too, but I received the receipt via email. Did you?

Hi,
I was asked to upload some documents on U of Sydney portal, but whenever I click the "document upload requirement" link, it shows an error message saying, " An error has prevented the exeution of your request. Please contact your System Administrator"
My internet works just fine for other websites but only for this one.
Does anyone know how to solve this problem??
Thanks
Applied: AustraLearn and USyd Online (there was some confusion)
App received: May 11
Status: Invited for interview (I also did mine this week)
For those of you inquiring about the interview, I can't say much because of the confidentiality agreement but I wish you luck
As far as offers being made, I think the rumour comes from this site:
http://pagingdr.net/forum/index.php...c6abbfdac08db98fda3dd&topic=2496.540#lastPost
A person by the screen-name of "rlyy" posted:
"international conditional/firm offers have actually already been released for those people who were in the 1 June interview block, they are processed on a rolling basis from what I understand. Subsequent blocks are 14-16 and 20-21 June as well as mid-late August."
However, you should note that this site is used by both prospective Med students and Dental student. I'm inclined to think those internationals offered acceptances are probably Med applicants and not Dental applicants because in the past Med offers were made before dental offers. Also, the USYD DMD site states "Offers letters made for international applicants" in August.
Does this mean that the next block of interviews for international applications are in August, and that there are no international interviews in July? I incorrectly assumed that all international interviews would be completed by the end of June, and made travel plans for much of July. Now I'm nervous that my application has not been processed yet, and should I be called for an interview in July, I might find it difficult to connect with reliable internet access.
Hi folks. Have any internationals received notification of the outcome of their application yesterday?
The email I received a week ago led me to believe the results would be emailed on June 29 (Sydney date). I haven't received anything and so I'm a bit concerned.
Any news, anyone?
Contacted them and they said they could not give a specific date but they are trying to process the results of the interviews as soon as possible.
Has anyone heard back from the faculty of dentistry yet??

I think they started sending out the letter. I just received an offer from Sydney! Good luck guys!
