The number of applicants this year has made the selection process very competitive. Unfortunately, we are unable to offer you an interview. Applications are evaluated with a multiple step decision matrix. Our data shows 17% of applicants are offered interviews and 4% of applicants are accepted as students. As you can see, not being selected reflects mainly on competitiveness, rather than any specific weakness in your application. We extend best wishes on your future endeavors.

Wish you the best for any other programs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be interviewing on 11/29 and would love to meet up with any free current students/applicants the evening before (Tuesday 11/28). Please feel free to email me at kmwigley@ucdavis.edu if you'd like to get together. This is my top choice program so I am beyond thankful. Best - Kayla Nice Job, Kayla. I also will be interviewing on 11/29. I think that is an awesome idea to meet up the day before. Anyone else interviewing that day? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmtam Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 I reached out to get an update on my application. The program director said a letter with official decisions will be mailed out soon. I was not offered an interview. Best wishes to everyone else! Please don't give up on your dream!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kla Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Hi everyone - So far 3 of us are meeting this Tuesday (11/28) for dinner before our interview Wednesday. If any current students or other applicants want to join please feel free to email me at kmwigley@ucdavis.edu. Looking forward to seeing the campus and meeting everyone! Also, if anyone who has already interviewed wouldn't mind sharing their experience that would be greatly appreciated. I am curious if there is a campus tour involved. Best - Kayla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajames Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Yes there was a campus tour involved. The facility is really nice and updated. I also like that it is smaller so there is a close community feel. The campus is located next to farmland and fields which is a bonus. For the tour, there are stairs involved so be careful walking in heels. Remember to stay engaged, keep your phones away, and get to know your peers!

kla Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 I really enjoyed the interview day. ATSU has an increadibly welcoming atmosphere which only made me like the program that much more. Best of luck to those waiting to interview or hear back. Congrats for getting to this point! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Possle Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 Has anyone from the 11/29 session heard back? I really enjoyed the interview day and it was more relaxed than I expected. From what I've seen during the tour during the interview day and introduction by the chair, I started to see ATSU as the most suited program for me out of the 7 programs I applied to this cycle. If one doesn't mind about the out-of-state rotation possibility, I will not be surprised if you fall in love with this program :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlrudgus Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 For those that have already interviewed, how long does the interview day last? I am invited for 7:45am interview in January. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
npdeleon Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 Hey, I interviewed on 11/29 and was placed onto their "Accepted Pending Open Seat" List via an email. Also, our interview day went until about 2:00PM, but that includes the tour, lunch, and the meet and greet with the faculty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

willrt Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 Hi everyone! I haven't posted here but I just wanted to share some information for those curious. I interviewed October 4th and I thought that both the faculty and students made the interview really personable and awesome! They certainly care about their students and they're really driven by their mission. Anyways, I also received an acceptance call the week after—pending an open-seat...aka waitlist lol. The interview should also last up until 130-2ish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saying I'm on hold for a potential seat in the class. Except now it seems like they are only accepting people pending an open seat with their class being full. I'm guessing if we haven't heard yet then we likely are waitlisted or rejected at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruinpa Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Submitted my application Aug 15, interview invite Aug 24, interviewed Oct 11 and rejected Oct 16. Super quick process! Thankful for the opportunity to check out the school, but definitely wasn't a good fit. Happy to answer any interview questions! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaylee272 Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 Have any accepted students heard about a fb group? I know bonnie said they'd make one once the class was complete but I'm getting anxious to meet all of you :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After reading previous threads (hahahha) I noticed other students got more program info and student accounts toward the end of january, so i'm assuming we'd hear something around then.

KAJohnson Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 I haven’t posted on here before but I am a second time applicant to ATSU. I interviewed in November and loved their program, faculty and students! I had the opportunity to shadow a class a few days before my interview too and it made me even more excited to start the program! I heard back the next week via email that I was being considered but I don’t have an official status yet. I called and asked but it sounds like they are still deciding. Anyone else waiting for a status? Hope everyone had a good New Years! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
br2435 Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Hello Applicants and Future C/O 2020, I'm a current student in the C/O 2019 and the lead in the Mentor Program. I will be sending all accepted students information regarding the mentor program in the near future (when the program completely fills). As far as the Facebook page goes, I will talk to Bonnie next Monday and try to get that set up. If anyone has any questions you can PM me. Have a good 2018 and good luck :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last I talked to Bonnie was before Christmas and she said that today, 1/3, is their last interview and they will be contacting all the "hold" applicants with an official status after today. I am guessing that means we'll hear within a few days/weeks. Best of luck to you! :) And Happy New Year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
