It was really informative,  I'm so glad I went.

The students are really upfront, encouraging and approachable.  

Take questions because you'll have a lot of opportunity to ask anything you like!

They feed you at the end,  which I didn't realize they would,  nice touch.

 What did you/others wear? I am overthinking the “comfortable professional” attire

Don't fret. 

I wore dark wash "dressier" blue jeans with a blazer and black blouse. I wore dressier converse shoes for comfortable walking and a bit of "flair?" Lol . I was comfortable and fit in fine. There were a couple guys in suits and it looked nice but totally unnecessary. 

The faculty wore khakis, button up shirts, regular business dress for women and the current students were in their scrubs. 

Have fun and soak up the info,  that's really why you are there!

Same! Trying to decide between black jeans or dress pants.

Thanks for the info, I am traveling and couldn’t make it to the tour. Did you meet the whole class or they had a couple of students for answering questions?

During the tour you have a couple students (1st yr) walk around and do the tour with you.  It was great because you could ask casual questions and get a feel for how they liked the program. After the tour you go to a "student panel" where there are 5 or 6 (different 1st yr) students answering a pre selected set of questions. Once those are over, the floor was opened to other questions for the students and then you had a chance to question much of the faculty. 

 

I'm so sorry you missed it!

I am really overthinking the shoe part of it since there will be so much walking. Would you say quite a few other people were in more casual shoes or even sneakers? Or were most wearing dress shoes?

You really are. 

Here's pictures of the ones like I remember seeing MOST. 

I also saw a couple pairs of sneakers.. I wore dressier converse style shoes (had puppies on them) with the dark jeans and did not feel out of place. I just made sure to be dressier on the top half. 

I did see some girls wearing heels and felt bad for them, saw some sandles too.. but it was very cold.

That sounds very organized! I definitely missed it. I appreciate your reply

Think another round of invites will be sent out? Do they typically send a later round out? Potentially initial invites that were declined due to acceptance elsewhere?? 

[FUTUREPAAA2022]

I just got a rejection letter.

I got mine last night. But, It’s alright my friend. There’s always other schools and plenty more app cycles!

Hi guys, I just canceled my interview with OU OKC since I got accepted somewhere else. Hopefully this opens up a spot for someone that is still waiting on an interview. Happy holidays!

[AlphaBravo]

Did anyone interview last year and have an idea of the interview style?:) 

[DNguyener]

I interviewed last year. The interview format was two faculty members to one candidate.
