Did anyone who submitted their supplemental application/background check get any sort of confirmation that it was received by anyone at UIC?

I may be wrong, but only like 2/70 first year students are OOS. UIC has a strong preference for IS applicants, just an fyi

Soon because AADSAS reports multiple spots on April 5th. I think that applicants have to decide pretty quickly after that so you should hopefully hear back in a couple weeks. Good luck ☘️

Don't they report April 1st? And if you hold a spot at another school does that affect chances of getting off of waitlist ?

They can only see accepted offers. I don’t think they can see if people are waitlisted. schools report those who paid deposits to AADSAS. That being said, I don’t think your other offer affects your waitlist status

I just meant if a school sees you have accepted another offer, are they less likely to extend you a spot from their wait list.

Yes and what I’m saying is that the only schools that will see that you accepted an offer would be another school that you also accepted an offer from. Since you only accepted 1 offer, no other programs will be notified of your status. Answer to your question is no

Sorry, just for clarification, does that mean that if I'm holding only 1 spot at a program, then I won't appear on this AADSAS report?
 
okay, just in case anyone is interested I found this on AADSAS site:
"Applicants Holding Positions at Multiple Institutions. Starting April 1, dental schools report to ADEA AADSAS the names and identification numbers of candidates who have paid a deposit, hold a position in a dental school entering class, or both. After April 5, ADEA AADSAS reports to each institution the names of candidates for its entering class who hold acceptance(s) at additional institutions. A dental school may rescind an offer of admission to a candidate who has paid deposits to or holds positions at multiple institutions. If the dental school chooses to withdraw this candidate from the entering class, the dental school must give the candidate a minimum 15-day notice."

Yeah your waitlisted spot won’t get reported because you haven’t paid a deposit. That being said if you are waitlisted at your top school, you can try letting them know you have an acceptance at Y but you really want to attend X dental school. One of current students at UIC did this when he was waitlisted and he got in there. I would say it’s worth a shot to let them know how interested you are. Worst that would happen is you stay on the waitlist :p

According to my ADEA book more out of state acceptances were made last year than in state. My interview group was 90% OOS. That's part of why I applied there. They are a private school so it doesn't matter where their funds come from really.

I did this for my top school. Still on the waitlist but I had the same logic so I'm hoping it works!

I would think no. If your a good applicant and they like you why would they hesitate asking you to come spend your money there instead of another school just because you were accepted somewhere else. An acceptance doesn't mean it's your top choice. Im currently waitlisted at my top choice and would go there in a heartbeat if accepted. Maybe 5 or 6 accpetances may change this idk? Just my thoughts.

Any movement on the waitlist? I haven't heard anything and was wondering if I should send a letter of intent? Who would I send it to?

Called a few days ago and was told incoming class has about 75 and 75 more on waitlist. Hopefully some movement after this week with multiple acceptance folks having to choose, but waitlist can move all the way through late August when classes start.

Hey everyone,
I just withdrew from the class due to an offer closer to home and more economical. UIC and the staff and faculty have been super great. I had a lot of fun interviewing here, and met some nice people. One seat should be opening up next week. I wish you all the best of luck :)
