Haven't heard from either
Members don't see this ad.
 
From the dates that I've observed on past posts of Milwaukee applicants, it seems that they don't sent out their admissions decisions until around March.
 
I applied to milwaukee, I haven't even gotten a notification that they received my application.

I e-mailed admissions at Milwaukee a while back regarding a question about my application and Cynthia got back to me and informed me that they "are not sending out notices confirming receipt of your application by OTCAS - if they say that it is complete, then it is"
 
I also emailed both schools and UW-Milwaukee said we should hear back in March and CarrollU said mid-February so it should be hopefully by next week that we hear from Carroll!
 
I also found out from someone else that Carroll may not get back to us until end of Feb now in case any of you guys were wondering!
 
Same, still waiting to hear back from these two schools
 
Heard back from Carroll. I got waitlisted :(
 
Would you mind sharing your stats?
 
Also heard back from Carroll today. Also waitlisted. Aai fingers crossed!
 
just got accepted off Carroll's waitlist on Friday! I had emailed them when I first found out I was waitlisted and they said they were not able to inform me of what number I was on the list.

Would you mind sharing your stats as well? I just want to know if I have chance of getting in.
 
UW Milwaukee said that they would start sending out letters next week :)

Just got an email acceptance! They said to notify them by March 20th so they can let people on the wait list know sooner than later :)

I was also accepted at UWM. I'm confused that the email said we also have to apply to their Graduate School -- is this just a technicality? Or, is there a chance that we would be accepted into the OT program but not UWM's graduate school?
 
Is there anyone that still hasn't heard from Milwaukee or Indiana state?

Me >__> I emailed Cynthia (Milwaukee) a few days ago about the status of my application and she said that they're still looking over applications, but everyone should be notified by the end of March. Bleh.

I got accepted into UWM. I will be an out of stater from Illinois and I am also wondering what their tuition/cost for the program would be for its entirety. The info from the bursar website is tricky to piece together.
 
Does anyone know if it's possible to differ a year at UWM?
