pdbhakta Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 I just applied today! How quickly did you all hear from the school? I haven’t gotten the supplemental application link yet, but everything else is done and verified - GRE and CASPA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
student 123456 Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 I just applied today! How quickly did you all hear from the school? I haven’t gotten the supplemental application link yet, but everything else is done and verified - GRE and CASPA I got an "application complete" email the same day my caspa was verified an email with the supplemental the following day. I submitted my supp app a week later and got confirmation saying my overall app was now complete the next day. I got the interview six days from the final "complete" email. Hope that helps! They seem to be really fast and efficient! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pdbhakta Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 Wow that's is pretty quick!
