She was rejected for joining, but reapplied, and became the only Trill in history to successfully complete the program after being rejected. The experience haunted her for years which is why she never went back to Trill.

In 2370, the Dax symbiont was removed and kidnapped by Varad Dax, who believed he was cheated out of the Dax symbiont.
