Did they say when their second round was done? I am trying to gauge whether or not that included people who interviewed at the end of January

they did not, based on SDN it was probably around Feb 9th.
 
Any news from the 27th interview?
Not yet, I’m thinking maybe we’ll hear something roughly March 10th/second week of March. Just guessing based on another post-Dec interview where the school was saying 6 weeks after the interview was more likely their response time.

Lol when the dean said mid February I noticed hesitation in her voice. So I assumed March anyway when they said they would also have decisions in March
 
VCU acceptance today!! Out of state interviewed back in September.
Wow! Congrats! They certainly left you waiting a long time. If you don’t mind me asking, were you on a waitlist?

Yes I was certainly starting to worry. I was never officially waitlisted just sorta ghosted until I received the acceptance email
 
I’m not sure, i’ve heard some say there may be another wave around mid march, but maybe that’s already happened? At this point it may just be a waitlist situation if a seat opens
I sure hope there is! I don’t think the interviewees in late Jan (me included) have heard anything yet
 
Does anyone have access to the Facebook group to see how many members are in there?
 
Just received an acceptance email at 3:59!

Edit: I interviewed on Jan 27th

Congratulations! So happy for you. By any chance do you know if they are done sending out acceptances and just doing a waitlist situation?

Thank you! Hmm good question, I am not entirely sure. Though I did just enter the Facebook group and it looks like they have 114 members currently. About 6 are current dental students acting as admin

In-state or out-of-state?
I'm in-state!

D.5 offers come out after the class is finalized. Generally, this happens towards late spring/early summer.
 
Thank you for your response! I sent a letter of continued interest. Hoping I hear back!
 
I received a D.5 acceptance today! Would love to connect with others who did also and hear from past D.5s about their experience
If anyone else has been accepted into the D.5 program please reach out to me!!! I can answer any questions 🙂
 
Could someone please share the split count of in-state vs. OOS enrollment for class 2027? Also, when was the last acceptance? If you know it. Thank you! 🙏
