Caroline89 Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 I received that e-mail on July 24th after submitting CASPA on June 18th. I wonder when they're going to start sending out the first round of interview invites? Hopefully soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rachulwang Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Hello Ayusam08, When did you submit your primary application? I am still waiting to hear back :| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
svonholten Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Hey! You're welcome! It's the least that I can do. I know what a stressful process that applying can turn into. I had several interviews and each school does them a little bit differently but I left Ros feeling very welcomed. You guys will definitely see me at some point during the day. The day starts with check-in and you mingle with other interviewees in our student union. It's a little nerve-wracking but you will for sure find someone to strike up a conversation with! My "buddy" at my Rosalind interview is now one of my good friends in class! There are about 30-40 people in an interview session. This is that way since we only do one session per month. You will be separated (you'll find out which group you're in at check-in; I believe it was delineated by the color of your nametag) into groups of about 6 or so. Each group will have a different rotation. The whole session starts with a presentation about Rosalind that is typically given by a couple of people on the Executive Council of the first year class. That's where you'll meet me! There is a tour of the school that is conducted by a first year, then you will move to a room to ask questions of a few second year students. You may have some lag time in there somewhere as you wait to move to your next station. I think snacks were in there somewhere haha! And then, of course, the actual interview happens. You will be paired with a faculty member and a current student will also be in the room with you to aid in the interview process. They are there to put you at ease :) Remember, we were on the other side of that table. The interview is challenging but remember to keep it professional and conversational. Let them know who you are. Remember, they wanted to interview you to see if you live up to your CASPA app and essay. Be the person you are in your essay. You know in your every day interactions that people can see whether you're sincere, driven, etc. Show that. You'll do great! Does that answer your questions?

stevenk Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 got an email today that I have an interview September 13! This is my first interview! I'm super excited and nervous! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crawl731 Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 I will be there for the September 13th interviews too. This is my first interview offer. I have a feeling there is going to be a lot of ups and downs the next couple of months if I'm this excited already. Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjb23456 Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 congratulations pantilomion and Brian -- would it be possible to share your turnaround time (from submission to email) and perhaps your stats? congrats again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevenk Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 My application was fully processed and accepted on August 9th and I received the email about the September interview August 27th. I had 3940 hours clinical experience primarily as an emergency department technician and as a paramedic, and 4460 hours in biomedical research. My GPA profile is 89 hours of sciences with a GPA of 3.17, 63 hours non-sciences with a GPA of 3.45, overall hours 152 with a GPA of 3.30. I have 10 post-baccalaureate credits with a GPA of 4.0. GRE Scores were Q: 153 (53%) V: 154 (62%) A: 4.5 (78%). Can't wait to meet everyone else who got interview offers and good luck to everyone who applied! My GPA wasn't the best as an undergraduate, but I have worked really hard at improving that and putting in my time for clinical experience to get an interview, so it's possible even with a "non-competitive GPA"!

crawl731 Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 I submitted to CASPA on July 17th and was offered an interview on Aug 26. My overall GPA is 3.53, Science is 3.51 and GRE was 81% verbal, 57% quant and 78% Ana. I have a been a paramedic for 11 years so a lot of hours. Super excited about getting this going. Good luck.
