Has anyone contacted admissions about post December acceptances?

I’m expecting tmr or end of Feb so just wait I guess… 🤷🏻‍♀️

 

[acutecat]

haven't heard back yet either 🙁 The FB group has only had 2 people join since then too. I would expect it to be a-lot more if they sent out acceptances from January interviews.

I asked some people on bootcamp. They have not heard anything either. Prob end of this month?!

 

[toothfairyz]

Kind of nerve wracking not hearing anything back yet...I have other deposits to consider...

Any reason why you expect them to send acceptances today?

Lol idk 🙂)) I just assume 2 weeks are enough to review the applications but I don’t think it’s gonna happen 🙁(

Yo me 2. My deadline is next week but I’m waiting for usc

 

[acutecat]

No they don’t work on the weekend

 

[pbs523]

anyone know if usc is receptive to letters of interest?

 

[blue5555]

Has anyone been accepted recently?

I’ve heard none got accepted. I hope they would release this week 😫

 

[Luckypredent]

I wonder if they will release acceptances since the committee would have probably met to send out interview invites.

 

[laadds]

I feel like since they are doing another round of interview, they might release the acceptance after interviewing them and combining both rounds.. so anxious of the whole situation..

The thing is, as far as i'm aware they also didn't send any acceptances in january, which they usually do. I wonder how they're doing things/why it's different this year. It seems like a lot more people will be on the waitlist idk

You should just put down a deposit on the other school you got accepted to.

Thats what I did… put the deposit in and now just waiting

 

[teeth2022]

when is the interview date?

March

 

[blue5555]

Any updates on when the next round of acceptances will be sent out?

 

[toothfairyz]

Has anyone heard of anyone that has received a post-december acceptance?

 

[brunetteandtoothy]

anyone know how full the class is or when the last interview date will be?

I believe the Facebook page has about 75 members, which mostly consist of accepted students.

I believe the Facebook page has about 75 members, which mostly consist of accepted students.

Actually, the majority of the people in the Facebook group are current D1s and D2s (and a few D3s I think)! So I wouldn't use that to estimate how many acceptances have gone out. Many post-December acceptances get sent out between March-June!

 

[pkb_1994]

just got an invite to interview!

Do you mind sharing your stats?

 

[teeth2022]

what day in march?

March 7

 

[teeth2022]

Do you mind sharing your stats?

At the time i turned in my app (late august)
GPA (science, overall): 3.74, 3.65
DAT (AA/TS/PAT/Reading/any section below a 17): 21/19/20/22 no
I'm OOS
I turned down my invite though since I got an offer from a different school so hope it goes to one of you guys!

 

[Dent_guy]

[macsak]

[acutecat]

Idk why it’s been silent since the Jan interview batch

 

[Dentisttobeee]

I had my interview back in October and still waiting to hear back...

 

[acutecat]

i just hope the class isn’t full.

I don’t think it’s full yet cuz they have another interview next week

 

[happy_smiles23]

I dont think there has been an acceptance wave since dec 1. I counted 3 interview waves since then. I interviewed in September and still haven’t heard back.

Do it. I did sent mine. Idk if it helped but it does not hurt doing so.

 

[happy_smiles23]

Has anyone been accepted off the waitlist or heard of someone who was? Correct me if im wrong but I believe there has been 2 acceptance waves so far (one on december 1st and one today march 4). And the acceptance wave today is from January interviews.

 

[Dent_guy]
