How often do you go to in person classes? Also, how do you like the faculty so far?

That was not applicable for my cohort. That's something new that they implemented for specific reasons per faculty.

Your first semester is online. You go in person to classes starting in Summer. For us it's only 1 day a week for now. Could be different for your cohort. Regardless of that, you'll be studying 50-80 hours a week, even in the first semester.

Additionally, comparing statistics is a waste of time. Everyone's journey is different. I got accepted into school over people who took Biochem/Orgo Chem, had rapid response experience, charge nurse experience, etc. I'm not faulting or disregarding if you have that, point is your application is viewed as a WHOLE. FIU utilizes a point system. They'll briefly tell you in interviews what is included in that point system. Last year interviews were 15 minutes, (10 min for questions and 5 min to ask them questions). Interviews last year were emotional intelligence based with 1 clinical question. Good luck, yall. 🙌🏾

Does anyone know if all the interview invites have gone out?  I'm wondering if I should still be hopeful for in invite.

They probably have for the day, but as more people start to decline their invites, they'll sent out more. Don't lose hope!

It seems like this years interview style is going to be a first! I don't know if this is a good or bad thing. But looking forward to it nonetheless.
