Guys. I have a former sweet patient who wrote me a letter of recommendation in paper ( she volunteered lol), in her letter, she put her address, and phone number.
If I ever use this as an additional LOR, would that violate Hipaa. ( what I mean, some programs said we can send them additional LOR), so I can just email it or mail.

Unless your patient is a practicing orthodontist or dentist, this is going to hold zero weight. Don't send it.

anyone mind sharing the link to pay NYU's supplemental? Don't wanna wait for them to get back to me

I emailed them to ask and they said that the fee link takes 2-3 days to send out, but as long as your app was in on time, then you'll be fine.

Anyone want to compare requirement lists with me? I kept finding new things that weren't listed in one place but listed in another place and it's made me paranoid that I missed something somewhere in the pile of applications. What a frustrating process oh my goodness...

Hey all,
Am I the only one receiving emails from some programs saying they have not received official GRE scores from ETS. Those same programs sent me completion emails a month ago. I’m just wondering to see if the error is something I’m doing wrong or it’s universal.
 
How can I update my INDBE results to the school, or do I need to send them individually.

Which schools did you receive the email from?
 
Any programs send out interview invites yet? Last year there was a few that sent invites out in August.

So you didn't have to send them additional letters of rec as part of the "supplemental"?? Under their ADEA Pass page it says 3 letters of rec on letterhead and signed are required in addition to up to 5 PPIs on PASS.

I looked back at the link and they do have a place for that if you want!

So that's optional?? Sounds like it's mandatory from the ADEA pass page? But when I go to my grad school app it says "There are currently no recommendation requests associated with this application." and there's no place to enter the request.
 
SLU applicants, did you all tailor your SOPs based on what they requested on their PASS portal? (500 words, double spaced, talking about certain stuff)

Yeah I just noticed they want to know why SLU, I guess I'll change some parts of my PS but not too much.

I know, it's so ridiculous. This whole application process is a mess with the way these schools all want different things and the information is on 4 different pages. Maybe you can revise your personal statement and e-mail to them as a supplemental material?

Did anybody receive an email from Jacksonville about the missing undergrad transcript and asking to upload it on your status portal (which I am not aware of) or email directly to the graduate admissions email? I sent an email to the program asking about this but did not get a response from them.

Is this true or a rumor: Boston University doesn't have enough chairs for their residents so 3rd years do the procedures, 2nd years assistant and 1st years watch !
(Heard it from a Tufts resident)

Interesting that they sent out the invitation, since their application deadline is Sept. 01
 
Did you guys get emails from every program you applied to that confirming they received your application, or itis just some program send and others do not
it is my first time applying and I submitted my application just before the deadline.
I appreciate everyone opinion

Anyone here applied to UTHSCSA? I emailed my 2x2 photo but I didn't get a confirmation email back. I don't want to bother them for a response if that's normal, but also don't want to have an incomplete app! :unsure:

Nope. Just to give you some numbers, I applied to 20 schools. So far 12 have sent me confirmations app is complete, 8 have been radio silent. Of those 8, deadline already passed for 2 of them, 6 of them are Sept 1st or after . I've reached out to the programs to see if my applications are complete but no response from any of those 8.

I get your concern, it's alarming when you're spending thousands on applications, and there's so many different requirements for each school and then you don't hear anything back from them on top of that.

Anyone getting their INBDE scores back know how to update it? PASS is saying the section can't be updated once you've applied.

Yes you just send official score from ADA to pass adea and it will show to programs that you passed.
 
Is it just me or you can't find Detroit's supplemental application fee link either?
