Yes me too!! Please. Also orientation is May 6/7?

Wow, congratulations! I got a virtual interview invitation, and I'm getting nervous about it. Would you please be able to share your experience with your virtual interview so I can get some ideas?

@sanchsomie there are some things that have been shared on the thread here. But one question I remember was along the lines of...explain a time where a co-worker etc influenced you in a positive way in your career and how it influenced you? Just be natural as best you can. I practiced beforehand as much as I could then dove in. 

Thank you very much! Were you asked more than five questions?

I applied to a program in the Spring of this year in a different school, and they have a similar virtual interview set-up, but I ended up messing it up. The questions were so random that I stuttered, and my chain of thought was very scattered when I was answering them. Of course, I was not selected. That experience is still giving me anxiety and stress every time I think about it. Now, I am hoping that I'll get accepted in Alabama but the interview portion is stressing me out.

I completed my background check and drug screen, and both came back clean on castllebranch, but my status still says 70%. I have sent her two emails but have not received any reply. How long did it take for your status to be updated?

You should hear back soon. You will receive the acceptance letter through email, and another email stating to sign letter of intent to enroll and making an appointment with your advisor. An attachment of the length of your program and how many courses in the fall, Spring, Summer etc.
