Hi guys ! Just had my interview this past week and I wanted to confirm that the interview will consist of 20 people. You get split into two groups. One group is taken first for the interview one-on-one portion and the other group stays for a medical writing assignment and gets a tour. You have three 15-min interviews with a faculty member. A fellow student stated earlier in this thread that she received more behavioral than traditional. I personally only had one critical thinking question, basic traditional questions, and then just conversational. However, it really does depend because I had peers who got mostly behavioral questions as well and hardly any traditional. So I would just prep regardless. The faculty and students are amazing, so I personally really enjoyed my interview. Best of luck to everyone !

@PrePaGal4, do you know how many more interviews they plan on having? If there’s 20 per session I have a feeling that there aren’t many more interviews left.

Yep I do ! They have 2 interview sessions per week from July-Sep. So it ends up being around 300, which is what they do each cycle. Picking from a pool of 1000-1500 applicants. From the 300 they will accept 48

Congratulations to you ! That’s awesome ! Did you happen to have all your paperwork turned in (background check and all that) prior to them giving you an acceptance ?

Yes. Everything was complete. They were pretty specific that they will not offer unless those are completed. I asked if they would hold the offer and she said they would essentially skip you and you could lose out if they fill the class before your stuff is completed. Unlikely, but they mean business !

Does anyone know if the CASPer test is required in order to apply as well. I don't see anything mentioning it on their website. But as I am in the process of sending it to another school, South University pops up as an option to send the scores to as well. And that just has me questioning it. Thanks!

They do require CASPer prior to admission. I received an email to send the results to the school
