When do we hear back about scholarships?

Did they say that they were offering scholarships with acceptance? Also do you recall that they said a lot of their classes were taught online and not in person? I’m wondering how many of their classes are actually online.

 

[futuredds2024??]

Have any post December interviews been sent out?

 

[dentalkookie]

Did anyone get an interview today that did their Kira in July-August? Or are they dont interviewing those batches?

 

[Caldentist96]

I know of a student who got interviewed in May and promptly accepted within a week or so after. That student is a D4 now and thriving. So don't lose your hopes.

Omg congratulations. What days were offered? Also I don’t think there’s a 1 on 1 it’s just PBL if it’s the same as last year

 

[frenchfrylover]

For those of you that got February invites, when did you get the notification? Were any sent out this week?

Omg congrats! If you don’t mind me asking what dates were offered?

 

[futuredds2024??]

Yall im starting to worry 😭 so my stats are 3.8 gpa, 3.6 science (which is a little low for USC) and my DAT is 20. I got an interview last cycle, but not this cycle. I even sent a letter of interest. I don’t feel good about my kira though. I want a shot at USC because it’s in state for me and close to home. Is anyone in a similar position? I feel like I’ve done everything I can haha. Any tips.

 

[Sweetdentist17]

Congrats! What were your stats and when did you submit your kira?

October 10th I believe.

[sad1232]

Also just received an interview! What does the interview day look like? How is the pbl style is there a one on one interview at any point?

 

[futuredds2024??]

[frenchfrylover]

since invites are already being sent for late Feb does that mean I likely won't get an invite if they end in March? Also how many people are invited for each interview day?
