I applied as well, I imagine we will start to hear news within the next month or so, especially being the program begins this Fall. Did you attend an info session?

I applied. Still nothing. The school is still not accredited and is still going through the process so they really can't send out offers yet.

Hi! It looks like they updated their accreditation status and they received COA accreditation through May 2031

Thinking ahead- Does anyone know if it is required to be on campus at the start or is the first few semesters online like some other programs?  Also how far are the clinical sites from Chicago or are they largely in the Chicagoland area?

It seems like it is required from what I've heard. It's an integrated program

this is where I understood it to have received accreditation but I could be wrong, UIC's website also says they're accredited. Also, COA's website says "Initial Didactic/Later Clinical" for the program design section? Soooo is it really integrated or front loaded? UIC's page doesn't have much info
