lbs431 Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 ariel802= I am driving down on the 23rd. I am thinking I will be in Madison sometime in the evening. I would like to stay as close as I can to the interview. I haven't checked the directions link on our letter yet though. I don't know Madison very well. I too am more familiar with Milwuakee. I am just trying to get a good game plan for the interview. It will be nice to meet others as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ambsklind Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 I will be there those dates as well. I am unsure of what to wear to all the different events. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ariel802 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 I will be there those dates as well. I am unsure of what to wear to all the different events. Any ideas? I was wondering the same thing. I may contact Erin to find out. She is always very helpful. ambsklind: are you applying to the distance program? Some of us may try to get together for dinner wednesday evening. Let us know if you are interested in joining us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
castaway83 Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 "but no longer considered a WI resident." How did you determine whether you are a resident or not? Was it a UW determined thing or did you sever all ties with your prior residence? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holzie268 Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Any word on what to wear the first day of interviews? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badger12 Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Note to girls: wear comfortable shoes on day 1! Walking around heels in HSLC is really difficult, I don't recommend it. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ambsklind Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Ariel802. I had applied for long distance but was denied. Still waiting to hear why I am only being interviewed for on campus. Thanks for the invite to the dinner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the invite to the dinner ambsklind: sorry to hear you're not interviewing for DE. Will you still be interviewing Jan 24 & 25? I hear if you live close enough to Madison, they won't consider you. I wish you luck in your process! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aaronwanish Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Interview is only one week away! Wow, it is coming fast! Any tips for interviewing out there? I have done some searches and read other threads on here over the last month or so, but wanted to know if anyone has had any UW-Madison specific tips? Typical types of questions...things like that. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skellyMT Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 I got an interview! Anybody else going on Jan 31th-Feb 1st? Yes 31st-1st! Congratulations! I am so excited. I have a friend in his 2nd year of the program and he LOVES it. What do you think we should wear the first day? I am thinking the second day I will wear a suit (I am female, PS) :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lumina Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Just gave up my spot for a Feb 7-8th interview so hopefully someone on the interview-waitlist hears some good news soon :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aimers54 Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Hey, I have a skirt and pants that go with my suit coat so I was just thinking about wearing one each day...thoughts? I have no idea lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ambsklind Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Hello, Has anyone who already interviewed have any advice for what to wear for both days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mzelena47 Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 A lot of people wore suits both days at my interview, but I feel that as long as you're wearing clothes that are "business casual" on day one and a suit on day two you'll be fine. The first day you sit in on a class, talk to faculty and pa students, it's basically an orientation to the program. You get most if not all of your questions answered. So I would say be comfortable day one, and all business day two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be at the best western near campus the 30th-1st if anybody else is there, I'd love to meet up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SackulaRK10 Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 I would wear, at a bare minimum, business the first day. Preferably a suit both days. Most people tend to do that. Source: I am a 1st year in the program Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

odie07 Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 Any tips for the interview? Questions they ask? @hereandnowiamu Umm...that's pretty bold to ask of those of us who already went. It's a traditional interview. That said, if you've been preparing as you should have, and have done your homework on the Program and some deep soul searching then you'll be fine. I also believe it's more about your personality and how it matches the Program and the others that potentially make up the class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cali Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 I'm pretty sure that Erin said we would hear the afternoon of the 18th (today)--but I wonder if that was a mistake since it's a federal holiday. Or maybe I misheard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
