Has Western sent out any post dec invites yet? i recently received an email saying they will have me under "continual review" after their initial review of my app. is this for the pre-Dec1 part of the cycle? I believe for western my stats are alright for an interview, so getting this email has me worried...am i not cut out for western?!

thoughts?

ITS NOT JUST ABOUT STATS!!!

Sorry you might not be what they are looking for, but im sure you'll be fine and have other interviews.

Good luck
 
i got that today too. im so used to Western sending me emails that have nothing to do with admission, i was kind of glad to see something concerning my status. i don't think this is a bad thing is it? people who got this at buffalo in the past have eventually gotten. we just gotta wait and see
 
Just out of curiosity... when did you receive the actual formal application complete email?
 
I got an interview invitation today via phone for Dec. 2. They had openings on the 2nd, 7th, and 14th.

Do they call you instead of sending you a packet or email?

Hi, if the school is calling to offer an interview and for some reason I am not able to answer the phone, would they leave a voicemail or call me back? I have T Mobile and as some of you may know, its not the best cellphone service and some phonecalls dont even get through. Thanks much

Yea, they usually leave voice mails (for me at least schools did)
 
Yeah, a woman named Hazel called and she was very friendly. She gave me the dates and times etc. and then told me that she was emailing me the info on the interview. I checked my email when I got home and it was there. It has all the information on what the interview will be like, directions, and places to stay at a discounted rate (just like most interview invite packets). AADSAS hasn't been updated yet for my account and yes they will leave a voicemail probably with a number for you to call back. I wasn't in a good position to answer the phone but I saw the 909 area code and knew it had to be Western and it was! I told her that I couldn't really talk and she was very friendly and polite and gave me her phone number to call when I could talk.
 
I received a call from Hazel yesterday as well and she left a message. Unfortunately, I didn't listen to the message until late last night and I've been trying to call her all morning and even left her a message and she hasn't picked up. I want to get in touch with her before the Thanksgiving holiday because I'm anxious to know whether it was an interview invite!

Well i highly doubt they would call you for a rejection.

Woah Tommy that's a little bit harsh.. lol. WesternU will Re-Evaluate the applications. These apps are not rejected yet.. but you've pretty much buried the applicants.

The Admin. coordinators (Hazelle, Briana, or Diana) will leave a voice msg.

My bad if that came off harsh, im just sick of people complaining about not receiving an interview when their stats are "good enough" for the school in question. If it were just about stats i believe most people would have interviews at almost every school they apply to.
 
I got an email from western on 11/20 saying that: Your application is eligible for review and will be sent to the Admissions Committee.
does this mean i have a good chance for an interview?
I m keeping my fingers crossed and waiting for the call like everyday cause this school is my first choice

Spud daddy, did u recieve such an email from western? if so how long after did they give u an invite?

Thanks
 
Parvaz, no I didn't get that email in fact I hadn't heard anything from Western for months (except the usual spam mail) until Hazel called me up for an interview. Good luck though. I am actually just chilling in the Phoenix airport waiting for my flight to ontario. I got waitlisted at my other schools so wish me luck!
 
I didnt receive the continual review email, does it mean I am out? btw, I received the application complete email about one month ago and have been waiting for either interview/rejections..and it turns out, nothing!!!.I dont know what's going on with westernU.....have they done with rejections yet?

Just be confident and remember to look over SDN interview feedback. I did some research and read some good dental articles regarding social responsibility. Be yourself and you'll do great. I'm also waitlisted at the other two so who knows we might both end up at Western.
 
I got the acceptance call this morning....thank you Jesus!
 
Anyone hear from Western? I guess it seems like Jan. 15 will be the big day.
