Acp123 0 Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 To those of you who already interviewed and got accepted ( first of all, congrats!) ... How long did they give you to make a decision to accept or decline admission? I have 2 other interviews scheduled for the following 2 fridays and I’m anxious about how the timing of it all will work out. thanks in advance! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I believe we had 10 days to decide and had to pay a $1500 seat deposit. That's definitely stressful but honestly if accepted I would consider going ahead and paying the seat deposit unless your next interview also gives you a decision that day. It's better to pay $1500 and risk losing it if you get another acceptance than to decline and come out of the cycle with no other acceptances. In the grand scheme of tuition/loans the seat deposit is practically nothing. Edited October 22, 2020 by gigi123 typo Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jordanjfuturepa 13 Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 For those who have already interviewed, what time does the interview end? I see that it starts at 8am, and there is a portion after lunch... just getting my travel plans arranged. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Madison56565656 23 Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 Hello! I'm a little late to the game, but are their interviews in person?? Every other school I've applied to is doing virtual interviews, and I'm confused... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I was done at 2:15pm but some people were still waiting to be called in for the individual portion after me. Good luck to you! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JStaana 4 Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 My application was received and verified end of August and still no notification. Is anyone in the same boat or turned in their application around the same time or earlier and have gotten an interview? Thanks. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I feel like they made every effort to ensure our safety. I was comfortable with the in person accommodations. It makes a big difference to actually see the facilities and to meet and interact with faculty/current students, and South College realizes that. I really appreciate the planning and effort they made to allow us to interview safely in person! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I thought the same thing!! I'm a fairly recent cancer patient, and I live with a high-risk parent, so going in-person with people from around the country was NOT an option for me. It honestly struck me as a bit pompous. Why does this program feel so special that they need to have in-person interviews when literally every other program is doing virtual? I was admitted elsewhere over Zoom, so it shouldn't matter to me, but it still bothers me a bit that they're not taking the pandemic as seriously as other programs. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

This program and one other program where I applied were completing in person interviews. The other at least had the courtesy to offer a virtual option for those who preferred/needed it. In my opinion, in person interviews are completely unacceptable right now and I highly regret investing my money in applying to this program. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ent2019 4 Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 Does anyone who interviewed know how many spots are left? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
emaleeroo 38 Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 Has there been any other interview dates?? And do they tell you pretty well in advance so you can make travel plans?
