jnicosia Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Hi Everyone! Just wondering if anyone has heard anything from DeSales about interviews for 2012 matriculation? Still anxiously waiting on my end! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikemul65 Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 I had a great interview today. Of the schools I interviewed with to date, this school is head and shoulders above them. Good luck if you also have an interview. FYI, for those who would like to know, the interview rhythm is as they state in the email invite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dezhorst Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 mikemul65, Do you have any helpful advice? I just received my interview invitation today! I have two weeks to get ready! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikemul65 Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 Congratulations and good luck! The flow is very straight forward and includes a lunch with students. There were two 1:1 interviews and an essay/supplemental application. The questions were to find out your fit for the program. The class looks for diversity but also for cohesion to ensure that everyone is challenged but also gets along. No trick questions. Be yourself and show them who you are. The more relaxed you are, the better you will come across and thus shine. One thing I should have done, but didn't is to ask when they will be making their decision. I have not heard back and I am not sure if I should have already or I should expect to hear at a later date. Either way, if I asked the question, I would know. If you happen to ask the question, can you follow back with what you learned? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

collegengo Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Hello DeSales Hopefuls! I interviewed about a week ago, and I have not receiving any info from them since. Any newly accepted people out there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikemul65 Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 I have not seen acceptancescome across here for this interview season. Not sure if they are planning onone big announcement or those that are accepted are also those that normallydon't participate on these blogs. I can say that I have not heard a disposition on my interview at this time. I interviewed in September. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pboran5 Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 Mikemul65, I interviewed at was accepted at Desales. I am currently debating between Desales and another school for next years matriculation. I Interviewed at the beginning of August and heard back the middle of September. I would recommend calling the graduate admissions office and ask for an update on your application, you may be able to find out more information.

nkechim Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 Congrats to those that got in! In case it's helpful information, when I interviewed they said candidates were broken down into 4 categories: instant in, instant out, hold, and wait-list. Hold is specifically for people they plan to accept provided the candidates complete their remaining prereqs to satisfaction (I believe satisfactory means a 3.0), waitlist is, well, waitlist. The rest are self explanatory. People on instant in or out are notified immediately. The other two groups will hear back a little further down the road (not sure when). Everyone there was very nice. I was happy that we were able to sit in on the class, and even happier that I understood what was being taught :). All-in-all it seems like a great program.

MKhan5 Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 My CASPA was received in early September, but I haven't heard anything other than the 'Thank you for your interest letter'...should I call the grad admissions office to see where my app stands? I don't want to appear too pushy...any advice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dezhorst Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 I interviewed at DeSales in mid October, and was accepted shortly after. I sent in my deposit, but am still waiting to hear from one other school that would be a little more convenient. For what it's worth, however, it's an awesome school and very well run! I am 99% sure that's where I'll be in August! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
collegengo Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 @ dezhorst: How short was shortly accepted? haha did they call you or did you receive a letter? I think I'm probably on the hold pile since I still have some classes and hours to meet. Oh yeah, congratulations btw! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dezhorst Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 I received a phone call one week after my interview and paperwork a few days after that. Thanks:) I'm still in shock... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
