Hey! I didn't see a thread made for this application cycle yet so I just wanted to start one. I submmited about a week ago! This is my first time applying, nervous to see what happens next.

Hii thank you for the information!! I just started a per diem job so I'm glad to hear this. How far in advance do we get our schedules every trimester for lecture classes and for clinicals?

You should know your schedule for lecture classes about 1 - 2 months before starting next trimester. The staff will remind you to register for upcoming trimester during the current trimester. You also will know your clinicals about a month prior to starting. Keep in mind that the dates or orientation may change last minutes. Definitely stay in contact with the coordinator and faculty.

I noticed I have one of the later invitations, so I wonder if they filled up most of the space already. Based on the rest of the thread, some students already received their acceptance letters. That is awesome!
I am beginning to worry and want to prepare for the interview as much as possible. I read it is only 15 mins. Is it one on one or in a group setting? What kind of questions do they ask during the interview?
Good luck with your interview!! They are a rolling application period so they will give interviews and spots throughout the months but don't think about it too much ! Your interview will be individual after your writing portion (writing portion is in a group setting, 1 hour). For mine, it was all female staff interviewing that day so I got interviewed by the person in charge of theory and clinicals and by the academic wellness person. 4 questions, have a prepared "tell me about yourself" answer. Take deep breaths, and you will be okay !! Have follow up questions to ask your interviewers after as well!
Hi! Congrats to everyone who already received their acceptances :)
I have my interview coming up and was wondering if any one had any insight about it in order to help prepare! Any tips on the kinds of questions to prepare for, what you think made you stand out, or what you think admissions really values. Literally any info is appreciated :)

Hi! I currently do not have my Bachelors yet, I am graduating on the 17th of this month. I just received my acceptance letter today and I interviewed on March 28. I hope this helps!
