Yeah, same here. Even if they reply, they will just say it’s still under review haha. Maybe, I’ll wait till end of the month

Did anyone else get an invite today?
Nothing yet. Perhaps, for those March 1 & 2 interview slots, the interviewees were selected in bulk yesterday? Hopefully, though, there’s still some invites yet to be made (maybe as those invited claim, or decline their invitations?). Best of luck!

Hopefully, at this point, many may be declining interviews.

Is anyone latino or black students being interviewed? Because, it's really looking Persian and East Asian in the Facebook group.

Of course they are interviewing black and hispanic. Persian/East Asian/White is generally the makeup of LA — particularly those that are applying to dental/med school (aka privileged). Black/Hispanic populations, although a significant part of LA/CA demographics, only represent ~15% of total applications. Out of a class of 100 you should only expect about 15 black/Hispanic individuals total. USC probably sees a higher proportion of black/Hispanic applications than the national average simply due to location. 32 Black/Hispanic enrolled into USC last year or 22%. I think that sounds about right and I’d expect a similar # this year. Don’t worry about what it looks like on FB lol.

I emailed them yesterday and they said my app is still under review and I will be notified if I receive an interview and they interview through March.

I don't know what to make of that but just wanted to share. Possibly more invites being sent out?

My friend got accepted all the way up until the end of the cycle two years ago
 
My stats were 3.66 and 20 DAT and I was accepted 12/15, I hope this helps. I believe only about half the class is full so far.

Does anyone know when the next round of acceptances are being sent out?
 
how many people do they interview at a time?
I had an interview Sunday and attended an Admissions presentation. There were more than 130 people. So I think They would have invited around 120 students for an interview.

Anyone that interviewed with the March 1st or 2nd group hear anything about acceptances?
 
Does that mean peoples files that are still “under review” are practically rejected?
Here's the email: Thanks for reaching out. At this time, we have concluded all our interviews for this current cycle. Please note that in order to gain admissions into our DDS program, students must have been interviewed. Thank you and have a great day!

Ahh thank you! So I’ll take it as an automatic rejection 🥲Just so disappointed because historically they interviewed till early April.
