SurgeryD Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 Getting ready for my interview this Tuesday. I am in town from TX. Any other loners? Maybe we could go have dinner or something and check out what the town has to offer. First time in Florida. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodsters Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Good luck everyone! I'll be at your session tomorrow afternoon - I can't go to the dinner but I'll hang around for a few minutes to answer any questions you might have of a recent grad. Be sure to introduce yourselves to me! I'd like to see the faces behind the screen names :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
massimo Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 I just found this forum, I was also invited to an interview at the end of October. I'm actually in Jacksonville for a different interview tomorrow. Anyway, got a call from Cathleen last Tuesday. I'll be seeing some of you in a few weeks! I'm very excited because UF is my #1 school!

DexUFPA Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Good luck to everyone with the interview process, it was fun and not stressful. Just be yourself and ASK QUESTIONS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meaganbh Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 Congrats to all who have made it in or gotten an interview! I'm going crazy myself just hoping I get the call for an interview. UF is definitely my top choice considering it's been my home for the last 6 years since under grad. I'd hate to leave :sweat:... I currently work with a recent graduate who was also at the open house in the spring. She has absolutely nothing but wonderful things to say about the program, and has been so encouraging. Woodsters you gave me a lot of hope for reapplying when you spoke as well (I can only hope to be as lucky!) I'll have my fingers crossed and hope to report back with good news. So far I had an interview with Keiser, and one with South in Tampa next week... maybe I'm on a lucky streak?? Come on Cathleen....feel free to call anytime!

GreatChecko Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 Looks like a few calls went out today! I got one as well. I'm a very happy camper this afternoon. Thanks for the tip Woodsters, the special ringtone/vibrate worked like a charm. The main Shands number (352-265-0111) is what you will see on the caller ID. Luckily my micro lab had finished and all I had to deal with was a very perplexed lab partner :D Best of luck to everyone still waiting and congratulations to all who have heard!

GreatChecko Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 I interviewed at the end of August. I knew the interviews were today, so I was completely surprised when I got the call. I was thinking next week or the following at the earliest. It's been a good day to say the least! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ginya1977 Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 Congrats to all of you that have been accepted!! I am still hoping for an interview. I attended one of the open houses in the spring and was extremely impressed. Does anyone know if there are still interview slots available and how many seats are left in the class?

woodsters Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 There are three interviews left: October 29, November 19 and December 3. No one except the faculty knows how many seats are left. However, there will always be at least as many seats left as there are people in a given interview session. Some of the people who have been given seats will choose to go elsewhere as well so if you interview you have better than a 50:50 chance of getting in. Good luck.
