I received the update from Penn today that my application is still progress through the multitiered process? Does this mean I still have a chance of getting an interview or Does Penn not send out rejection letters until all seats are full?

 

[futuredentalstudent8]

Any recent acceptances for interviews after Jan 19?

 

[entireparsley]

Do they send out rejections? I interviewed Jan 5 and haven't heard anything back

 

[futuredentalstudent8]

Any acceptances?

 

[Teethb]

Got accepted an hour ago. Interviewed 10 days ago

Any acceptances?

 

[futuredentalstudent8]

Anyone that interviewed 1/24 or 1/26 hear back?

 

[molran56964]

Anyone hear back from the 2/2 or 2/3 interview date? Looks like 5 more people joined the facebook group, so it seems they sent another round

 

[entireparsley]

How long after receiving an acceptance letter do you hear about scholarship offers?

 

[todentornottodent]

Just got my 5th "application update" email... hahahaha

 

[Ryxndek]

UPenn dragging me down, almost wanna rescind my app but maybe they won’t let me do that either😂💀

 

[constantlyconfused]

UPenn dragging me down, almost wanna rescind my app but maybe they won’t let me do that either

I rescinded a couple months ago and they emailed me back so fast at like midnight

 

[todentornottodent]

I rescinded a couple months ago and they emailed me back so fast at like midnight

should've hit them with "nvm, now that you've seen my application... thoughts?"

 

[abeezdent]

Does anybody know how long after receiving an acceptance letter do you hear about scholarship offers?

 

[isaiahbiltor]

Has anybody been formally waitlisted yet?

 

[anonymousstudent1]

Just declined my acceptance offer, so hopefully one of you guys get it!!

 

[dududental]

Does anybody know how long after receiving an acceptance letter do you hear about scholarship offers?

I was accepted feb 8th and I was told they do not have any scholarship money left so anybody accepted after probably do not either.

 

[Ryan12345]

Yea the way it works is as people receive HPSP, NHSC, and decline offers with scholarships they redistribute that money

Does Penn send an acceptance packet of sorts to give more information on stuff? I received my initial acceptance letter, but was wondering if we receive a more detailed one later.

[isaiahbiltor]

[futuredentistdoctor]

[Dr. Grignard]

Interviewed on 2/16 and accepted Thursday evening as well! Good luck everyone!

 

[molran56964]

Random question, but should I bring my car to Philedelphia when I move this Fall for school? Or do most people not bring cars. If I did bring a car, is there parking near the dental school?

 

[smiless123]

I wouldn’t. Parking is rather expensive and you can get around basically anywhere in the city with public transport.

 

[isaiahbiltor]

So are they done with acceptances? has Anybody got rejected

 

[Ryxndek]

So are they done with acceptances? has Anybody got rejected

Nope, soft rejected

 

[orth0143]

Received another status update email

 

[futuredentistdoctor]

Received another status update email

If I get another one I will cry

 

[isaiahbiltor]

I emailed and they said "once a decision is made I'd be promptly notified".

 

[dentaldude7]

At least you are still getting the update emails ... they stopped showing up for me so I'm assuming that I did not make it through the multitiered review process

 

[macsak]

Nope, soft rejected

there is no such thing as a soft rejection...

 

[Ryxndek]

Shame, it certainly feels like a soft rejection from 3 of my schools😂. Nothing since july but I’m just assuming I’m not hearing back and moving on

the schools have limited time and staffing resources
they are not "letting you down easily" by not giving you a rejection...
