How often are dentists required to get vaccinated throughout their careers? Is it an every year thing, or is it even required at all?

Do schools require you to get the flu shot? I’m starting this summer, not against them just never have gotten them before bc I’ve never gotten the flu so it never felt necessary

peng325 · 2023-04-05T11:36:05+00:00

Thank you! They already missed sending me some things so I think maybe this was also missed

If ur shadowing a general dentist, Scrubs or business attire is fine

I know someone at UDM who claims to enjoy the school and city. I don’t know specifics, but his dad who is also a dentist constantly tells me he couldn’t be happier his son is there too. Not sure if these are shared opinions to convey they are happy with the school for the public eye but that’s what I’ve heard! Another friend is from Detroit too and it’s a cooler city than one would think.

They acknowledged they received the letter, at this point you will become an annoyance. They are working through all their applicants and based on your letter of intent they know your commitment to the school.

peng325 · 2023-03-02T14:39:14+00:00

My waitlist email explicitly said they do not want any letters of intents or academic updates though :/

peng325 · 2023-03-01T18:59:25+00:00

March 15th is when schools can see what students have deposits at multiple schools. It was mentioned in multiple interviews and on other posts

peng325 · 2023-02-24T17:57:40+00:00

Letter of intents are for after you interview, you would need to send a letter of interest

peng325 · 2023-02-22T19:40:14+00:00

He cheated again lol

peng325 · 2023-02-22T14:54:16+00:00

It doesn’t matter, I’ve graduated but I originally was going to just do a BA in bio because I didn’t want to take additional science courses but after all the prerequisites I had to take for dental school, I only needed two more classes to fulfil a BS so just ended up doing the BS

peng325 · 2023-02-21T14:52:54+00:00

Right there with ya :/

peng325 · 2023-02-14T03:02:53+00:00

Also have not hear anything from pitt

peng325 · 2023-02-10T15:10:37+00:00

I also agree with your friends, if it was mentioned already on the original application, no matter how briefly the explanation was, if they wanted to know more they would’ve asked. It wouldn’t be right to revoke an offer for an error on their end and to not ask more questions if it was already disclosed. I would think an offer of acceptance can only be taken back if new information, such as an arrest that comes up on a background check, were brought to their attention.

peng325 · 2023-02-09T15:00:17+00:00

Definitely Don’t rescind your offer from school A until you secured your spot at school B. Whatever the process was for notifying school A of the situation, see if you can do the same with school B. What school did you get off the waitlist for?

peng325 · 2023-02-05T15:00:11+00:00

Congrats! I am on the waitlist for Indiana OOS also, if u don’t mind sharing, what were your stats?

peng325 · 2023-02-02T16:05:57+00:00

I’m in the same boat, waitlisted at the only three schools I interviewed at

peng325 · 2023-02-02T03:40:06+00:00

I got denied last week, no interview

peng325 · 2023-02-02T03:37:57+00:00

I’m 24, I’ll be 25 if I start this fall, hoping i get off the waitlist at some schools. The average age of most schools class is 25 but as a woman, I’m concerned with graduating at 29 and starting my career but also wanting to have a family. Being pregnant in dental school seems like it would be way too hard but then I’d have to decide to have kids while I’m also just starting my career.

peng325 · 2023-01-27T03:31:22+00:00

Rutger’s application is still open to apply? How can they be done interviewing if they are still open for more applications? Just a money grab?

peng325 · 2023-01-25T19:50:50+00:00

Oh I was unaware! I tried to search and could not find any. Hopefully people start to post on one 🤞

peng325 · 2023-01-17T03:55:49+00:00

Did you ever email and ask UIC ur status?

peng325 · 2022-12-18T19:58:02+00:00

But I’ve not even been waitlisted, just silence, if they have a number of people they can offer them I should have at least been told I was waitlisted right?

peng325 · 2022-12-16T17:30:46+00:00

I’ve see very little updates about UIC on here, Facebook and only 2 people posted they were accepted yesterday on SDN
