balexandra Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Hi All, For those who interviewed -- how was it? I recently attended an NU information session and am anxiously awaiting word about interviews. The program is definitely my top choice. Also - for those who interviewed -- would you care to or mind sharing some of your statistics? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaaldana Posted September 21, 2011 Author Share Posted September 21, 2011 Victoria!! I found you :) I'm back in California now. (Just arrived this afternoon). I hope we hear good news soon!! balexadra: The interview is relaxed and the students are very informative. The day started with check in, then we went on a tour and had lunch with first year students, then we had two one-on-one interviews, then we had a sample PBL session. I absolutely love the program at NU! I met some wonderful people at the interview and all the students and faculy are very friendly and informative. Good luck!

MassPA-C Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Hi Jaaldana =) Glad you made it home safely! I agree that the interview was relaxed and everyone was friendly and informative! I really liked the PBL session- I think it illustrated very well how a year of your life is going to be. Now the waiting begins =) Let's keep each other updated....

Ghycheng Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Hi everyone, For those who received an email for interview, how long until after they have received your supplemental to receive your interview email? Does anyone of you know how often and until when they are conducting interview? I submitted my supplemental on 9/16. Northwestern is also my top choice as well so I'm anxiously waiting for an email!

MassPA-C Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 Jaaldana- I haven't heard, I assumed it was a no since it has been two weeks... I will let you know if I hear anything! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaaldana Posted October 1, 2011 Author Share Posted October 1, 2011 yeah, that's what I'm assuming too. They said if the committee didn't get together last Friday, then they would get together this Friday to discuss candidates. Hmmm...guess all we can do is keep waiting...

jaaldana Posted October 7, 2011 Author Share Posted October 7, 2011 Congrats, Victoria! I am so happy for you! Northwestern is such a great school :) I have not heard anything yet, so I'm getting really worried... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bastein Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 hi all, did northwestern give any indication how many more interview sessions they would be holding? When i went for an information they said they were expecting around 2000 applications and were looking to interview less than 200. I submitted CASPA in August and have already been accepted at another school (GWU) but fingers still crossed for NU! Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

jaaldana Posted October 13, 2011 Author Share Posted October 13, 2011 Has anyone who interviewed on 9/19 received a letter of rejection? And has anyone who interivewed on any other date received a rejection letter? I don't think they have a wait list do they? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MassPA-C Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 Hey Jaaldana, I haven't heard anything and still havent received my offical letter. From my understanding they don't send rejection letters until Feb. Jim mentioned at some point during our day that they had only had to offer 64 spots to fill the 60 spots so I am assuming they dont really have a wait list either... Good luck with your other interviews! I will let you know if I hear anything else =) Bastein, I submitted CASPA in July so they have not gotten to the August applicants yet. I think I was in the 2nd interview group so I am sure there will be more to come! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
