kombuchatrilogy Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 I'm an out-of-state applicant from the west coast and just got an interview invite yesterday! I would say that I'm a pretty traditional student, but I had a variety of different healthcare and volunteering experiences while I was doing my undergrad. But honestly, I'm just trying my best and letting God handle the rest. Good luck all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She said there is several reasons why some got early invites than others. Do you mind to share those reasons with as ? Congratulation! I am looking forward Monday and hopefully getting the invitation too. Another question do they send rejection letters also only after all interviews are done ?

Mallori Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 Received interview invite on 9/14/18. Before I would be given options for the date of the interview I completed a supplemental application and $100 non-refundable fee. I'm also out of state applicant, but I am from Indiana so not too far away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She said they changed it all around this year cause it was a mess with the weather. She said that some interviews was canceled due to weather. The early interview advantage is that after each day of interviews, they set down and right on your paper admit, wait list, hold, or decline. So if you get to the very last day of interviews there could only be a couple of spots left open. As as far as rejection letters I didn’t ask.

Not quite sure that this information is correct. I received an early interview invite on 9/14 and it states "offers to attend will go out digitally during the week of December 10th once all interviews have been conducted" so I do not think there is any advantage to interviewing earlier. We just get the advantage of scheduling our date before they are all taken up. It seems as if they interview everyone then make admission decisions. Nothing in the email suggests that preference would be given to those who interview earlier. I actually planned on selecting a later date so I would have more time to consider my options with other schools/make travel arrangements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you! In this regard I would just say patient care experience. I applied to this program last year and was not even offered an interview, however I received early interview preference this year. I was promoted at my job and had about 1500 more hours of patient care experience along with a better letter of recommendation, but other than that my application did not change much. It is difficult to tell exactly what schools are looking for, but I would say a wide variety of patient care experience/hours and competitive grades! The applicant pool changes every year as well so it truly varies! I would just say being competitive in each aspect of your application (pre-reqs, patient care, shadowing, volunteering, personal statement, etc)!

The email said that the invites would START going out on Monday, so it's possible that one could come later too! Just an FYI so people aren't discouraged if an invite doesn't come today.

ATAF3121 Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 For those of you that got the early invite, have you all scheduled your interview yet?

I got an email to schedule an interview maybe 10-20 minutes after finishing my supplemental app on Friday. I would email Joey directly and let him know since most of the emails came from the "do not reply" address! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I filled out the supplemental Sunday afternoon and didn’t get asked to schedule until an hour or so ago, so it takes time! I was thinking the same thing haha. I’ll be there December 7th! All dates were still left when I scheduled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d set aside 15-20 minutes to complete it. You shouldn’t need more time than that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
