Western U secondary...?

The instuctions on AADSAS say that we have to send the secondary once we submit the application. However, Western's website says that we will get a notice in order to fill out the sec. application. This is confusing. I tried to call them, but noone picks up the phone, nor returns the call.
Anyone has a clue about this?
My application was mailed on August 11th, and My DAT was taken 3 weeks before that. I have not heard anything fromt them yet.

I called last week and was told that they had only looked at about 100 applications so far. The lady said they hadn't sent out an e-mail yet to update the status for people. I was calling to check the receipt of my DAT scores. They had everything. I think the problem is they send you to the recruiter and he is very busy. Being a new school I would expect some delays. I would wait as they haven't sent out anything yet.

Thx for letting me know about your call.
So have you sent your secondary yet?

Sorry, no I have not sent a secondary yet. From my conversation they were still reviewing what they had and have not sent out requests or notices via e-mail yet. From other posts it appears that Ca takes a little bit more time to get rolling than others.

Dear 😀,

Thank you for submitting your supplemental application for Western University’s College of Dental Medicine!

After a quick review of your documents, I noticed that you did not submit the $60.00 application fee or the Prerequisite Course Worksheet.

Please submit the application fee and worksheet as soon as possible so we may continue processing your application.

I would like to take this opportunity to give you an idea of what the rest of the application process will look like.

Thank you for sharing. Had they previously asked you to you complete and mail the secondary app or you just did it without any notification?

They had the secondary up on their website.

I just sent in the secondary right after I turned in my AADSAS. All the directions are on their website.

i remember they had nothing on their site early june, but then they emailed me as soon as the secondary was available online. i just did it as soon as i was notified it was online...i dont think they need to notify you first.
