Thank you. I declined as I accepted another offer at another school. It was scheduled for 3 hours, at 3 different stations. Mine was 100 EI. They will send you a packet prior to the interview date with details. 

Thank you for responding! How many people interviewed with you? I see that they have more interview dates. The recruiter for the program, encouraged me to apply and stated I would be competitive. Just keeping my hopes up, at this point.

You go in individually. But we had to wait in their waiting/break room. When it gets to your turn you will he called in to start. I saw another person after my first interview/station in the breakroom.

Okay cool, thank you. Any other advice / insight you can give is really appreciated, honestly. This is my top choice program & I want to prepare as best as I can. Thank you so much!
