**Official PASS 2023 Periodontic Residency Interviews/Information**

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
I would choose USC; more or less same tuition, same clinical trainings, LA would be more fun
what's fun about their traffic ?

Any one here ranking UF? I wanted to rank there but I heard the program is not good anymore and they have no patients. Any comments?

Does anyone know how much the stipend is at West LA VA?

I would recommend you to rank them if they interviewed you. If you feel that your training is not enough, take additional CE courses and once you have the opportunity, apply what you learned. As a specialist you earn significantly more than a GP. There is no perfect program. Try to see something positive in everything you do. By the time you complete the program many things change anyway.

Hey guys! For match! Once the list is certified there is nothing else for us to do right? What about the new interview section? I don’t see my interviews on that calendar because the program didn’t use the match interview service for their scheduling, I don’t have to put the dates in retroactively right?

Correct, don't worry about the interview section.

Best of luck to everyone!

Do we rank the schools where we have not interviewed?
And once the ranks are certified, is there anything else we need to do? I mean how we come to know that everything is fine regarding ranking and certification?
 
Regardless of the results we will all be great dentists in the future!

Good luck to everyone! I’m also wondering how applicants are notified? Does the addsas portal change? I feel like it’s decision day all over again 😊

I did some digging and it seems that it’s an email that typically goes out around 8am EST! Then match will update their website at noon. I believe the PASS portal stays the same so post-match applicants are able to submit applications?

First of all, congratulations to all the selected dentists for 2023 periodontics program. To other dentists who are still struggling to get into the program like me, I want to discuss what further steps we can do become strong candidate for next cycle at this point? Now, waiting game is over for me and I have to explore more. Any suggestions from anybody would be highly appreciable. Thank you in advance:)

I would suggest looking for post-match GPR/AEGD programs and then reapplying the following year. Good luck!

Thank you for your reply. Definitely, that is also a great option but I think there are very few programs that accept international dentists. Isn't it?
