lila87 Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 @jk1040 So you may be thinking of South College Atlanta instead of South University in Savannah. They have a forum for South College Atlanta as well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

junebug Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 I gave up my seat last week so that will open up a spot! This was a VERY tough decision. Good luck to everyone! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lafn04 Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 Yes, me too. Quite disheartening since I interviewed back in June and rather than pull from the waitlist seems like they keep scheduling more interview sessions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems that they have done that every other year as well though! A current student at my session said he got pulled in October from the waitlist and last year’s forum it seems like people got pulled in November, too.

Jessicaestrada0214 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Does anyone know if they’re still calling people for interviews? I applied July 3rd and have not received a denial or invitation for interview. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hflatness98 Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 Hi everyone! I have an interview on Oct 29&30 but when she sent my individual agenda it only had activities on the 30th. Is there events I should attend on the 29th? The sample schedule she sent at first had events both days! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PandaLe Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Received an interview invite for 11/7-11/8. Email says seats are almost filled and that statistically speaking, even if interviews are successful, we'll likely get waitlisted. The numbers aren't that convincing, but I guess I'll take a chance and roll the dice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bugzdee Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 I just received an interview invite for 11/12 and 13. I am hopeful like @PandaLe that a successful interview does not result in being waitlisted. This program would be awesome to be accepted to. Thankful for the opportunity!

PandaLe Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Btw, does anyone have any tips for the interview? Such as tips on questions, the amount of people you interview with, how many people are in your group, the number of people on the panel, where to stay or things to do while in Savannah, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They really do their best at trying to make everyone feel comfortable! The first day you will be able to meet a lot of the faculty and spend some time with student ambassadors. Take advantage of this time to ask questions and make connections with everybody that you can. The interview day did a morning group and evening group then each of those were broken down into smaller groups of 6 (if i'm remembering correctly). You will have 2 one-on-one interviews with faculty members and they genuinely try to make the process feel like a conversation. They are honestly wanting to get to know you! They use behavioral style questions, so basically they ask about experiences. Something that helped me prepare for that was just having a handful of good/bad experiences in mind that I could mold to a specific question. With that being said, don't get freaked out if they ask you something that you don't know how to answer right away! I had to ask my interviewer to give me a second to gather my thoughts because one of the questions took me off guard! The group/panel interview consisted of a faculty member and the medical director and they went down the line asking us all the same questions. Don't let that sound too daunting.... they were personal-type questions like tell me about yourself, so it's not answers that people can steal! South is a very tight-knit and friendly community that really cares about their students. Be yourself BUT also professional! I stayed in an AirBnB and just rented a single room because that was the cheapest option. There are tons of AirBnBs in the area! There is a lot of shopping right next to South (it's located on mall blvd if you haven't noticed that yet!!) and the downtown area is gorgeous! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

During an interview for another school last month, I met someone who interviewed at South University in July but was waitlisted and never heard back from them. I am hoping that I hear back within 1-2 weeks given that the start date is in January and being accepted would mean I'd have to do some serious planning.

NikkiS Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 Denied my recent interview offer for dec 2nd. Hope that opens up a spot for someone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrePa1125 Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Does anyone know if all seats have been filled yet? I was wait listed in the beginning of July, and it doesn't seem as if anyone from the wait list has been called yet and i am assuming it's because the class is not full yet so when people give up seats, it just opens more spots for acceptances from interviews.
