I have been hearing that they don't accept many students who have done their undergrad at NAU which is a huge bummer Hoping I am wrong! I graduated from NAU with my undergrad in 2016. I interviewed 11/5/2018 and was accepted into the program on 11/6/2018. When I interviewed it seemed like there were a lot of students from ASU and U of A, I believe I may have been the only one from NAU interviewing that day. Let me know if you have any additional questions!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been hearing that they don't accept many students who have done their undergrad at NAU which is a huge bummer Hoping I am wrong! I graduated from NAU in 2017 and will be interviewing on December 3rd. I’ve known a couple people in the past who were alumni and were accepted to NAU. I think this whole process can be somewhat unpredictable and it really varies by school what they are looking for in an applicant at the end of the day. I’ve definitely been surprised a few times during this whole process. Anyway, I wish you luck with any past/future interviews. I hope you get in somewhere you love!

They say they give preference to those with strong ties to AZ yet I've seen quite a few previous NAU students in this forum who were disappointed because they did not receive even the chance to interview. I'm not sure. Again, I am hoping I am wrong but just wanted to see if there was anyone with a success story. I graduated in 2014 and was accepted from the first interview day! I don't think my alumna status gave me any advantage or disadvantage in the interview process. Based on my discussions with staff during my interview, I don't think simply graduating from NAU or another Arizona university is enough to prove you have "strong ties in Arizona." They were extremely interested in the variety of volunteer work I've done in the Phoenix metro area, my career experiences locally, my history in the area (born and raised), and my involvement in local outdoors and community action groups. Just my two cents, but I think showing your interest in providing care in Arizona by really integrating yourself into the local (i.e. Phoenix metro area) community is the best thing an applicant could do to up their chances of an interview invite!

Oh, absolutely. I by no means was insinuating that graduating from an Arizona school would be enough. Sorry if it seemed that way. Congratulations and good luck to you!

Sorry if it seemed that way. Congratulations and good luck to you! Oh no definitely did not take it that way! Just trying to share my experiences. I lurked your profile and saw that you received invitations to interview at both Midwestern and AT Still! If it makes you feel better I got straight up rejected from both programs without interviews This whole process has been such a mixed bag! Congratulations and good luck with your next interviews!!

stefkat Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 Any news on more acceptances or invites? Still waiting to receive any kind of an email from them at this point. When I contacted admissions the other day, they did inform me that they "hope to have all applicants updated/notified before the end of December."
