hi bddsgirl
how many students does uni of minnesota take every year?what is the class size?
 
10 students

@bddsgirl u don't have a chance because you have very low scores![pun intended] come on, you will forfeit every one's chance with these scores
 
does anyone know how many people they call for iv.... also any idea about what they ask in the iv...
some specific weird q's
 
are their admissions on a rolling basis? It doesn't mention so on their website,but I think it might be, that's why they already invited for interviews.
 
they have 10 seats and they have rolling admissions.
 
Hi 3rdorder,

Well thanks for encouraging me.....but after 5 months of writing my exams and getting my scores and waiting to get just one interview call, I have forgotten how to be hopeful.

Hey pbkal,

They take 10 students per year....

Hi Maiya..I am also from RGUHS university and after coming here just last week i needed the transcript and i have gone through a lot just to get it. Here is a easy way, You need to send chalan of 1000rs from SBM and just fill out the form . You can get the form by www.rguhs.ac.in . You also have to send your marks card xerox and degree certificate xerox. They say that they will mail the transcript but you can ask some of your friend or anyone to go and pick it up.

Hope it hepls.
 
Hi,

I might be looking dumb asking this question.... but why do we need to get transcripts from RGUHS now? we already have our original marksheets and internship completion certificate when we were passing out of dental school in india. does minnesota need sealed copies??

hi fren,
thanx a lot for the reply.I did that but they send us stamped copies of our marksheets and degree certificate when we apply for transcript.I already send copies of marksheets to minnesota but they are asking for transcript that means all years marks in one sheet,I am confused,I don;t think RGuhs will issue anything like that.
anyways lots of thanx for the info
all the best for application cycle

i'm not from your university, but let me tell you, even if your college doesn't issue all in one certificate, request them to send you a certificate which shows number of hours/credits spent against each subject ,lab work, clinic. like an attendance sheet in which number of hours allocated to each subject, and the number of hours you attended.
with this certificate and mark sheets that you already have will suffice the requirements.

Yes Unfortunately RGUHS consider that as transcript.they dont give all in once certificate. Just stamp from registrar will become transcript. Sad but true.. I hav not applied to Minnesota but just informed them that this what our univercity give us as a transcript...
 
ya RGUHS transcripts are like that ,thats hw our uni is,no prob just make sure all marks sheaths n degree certificate are signed and the envelope is signed n seal is placed across..
 
Anyone got a call for interview for June30?? Any female willing to share a room for the same??
 
They started interviews so early?? I have not even aplied yet. shd i apply or they r done with the iv?
 
go ahead and apply..there still time for their deadline

hi 3rd order, happy2010, florarose
can anyone guide me with this information. im applying to umn now. do i have to include my shadowing experience letters with the application?? since the check off list doesnt say anything, got doubt. do we have to provide the clinical experience letters with the application package or during the interviews?? please suggest as soon as possible. thanku very much.

Hi pbkal,
I dont think that you need to provide proof of your shadowing or clinical experience through letters. You should be fine with listing them it in your CV or Personal statement. They are very clear as to what things they need as part of your application. So, just include those things. Do not forget to include your Internship completion certificate though since they do not mention it in their application package list.
