Thanks.
Don't worry about the waiting time. You will get an interview invite as you have good stats, just keep checking your spam folder too. It is possible that sometimes the email goes in spam folder so.

I don't think the school sends all invite at one time. But if it has been long time since your application got completed. You should ask them on phone about the status.

I applied around nov end or first week of december. But, my file was complete on january 2nd because of holidays.
Then I was just thinking to call to ask my status at the end of this month and I got email.
But, I think the major part is still remaining. Hope it all goes well.

I got a call around 6/7th january stating my application was complete. But when i spoke to jeff, he told me that they would still require toefl from me even though i did masters in US. so i went ahead, gave toefl and my score was submitted just this past tuesday which made my application complete. I guess i just got my score in time...There will be few more rounds of interview though @meyt. Go ahead and read some forums from past years, people have got their interview calls even in april...hope that gives u peace of mind
@nirav149 how did you contact with Jeff? I did not take toefl since I completed two English composition classes here in the us. Thanks so much. You re so kind to encourage me. However, I almost give up hope now since I got a phone call in mid December said my file was ready to review. I think people who got invited in April might apply late. Anyway, I would love to hear good news from you. Please keep in touch. Good luck to you @nirav149.
I did not got the interview invitation yet...Still waiting...Sorry, can not help you....
Hey,
Do you know what specific questions did they ask during your cousin's interview?
I just got to know that they ask basic questions why pharmacy and about us, but still I want to be sure about it.

If you got interview call, as far as i know, you are selected. I don't know why they call students for interview, but its just formal hi hello kind of meeting. They ask useless questions to whom you give useless answers - like why pharmacy ? why nova ? and stuff...But at least for this year, of all people that i know who went for interview, all of them were selected. Nothing to worry about the interview. Just answer confidently, doesn't matter what you say - cause there is not right or wrong answer - just say confidently and you should be good.
Good luck
Good luck
Thanq so much Nirav
Email Ms. Jessie Sutton as many times you can. You can call to her contact no. but generally, she doesn't answer the calls. Just try to leave voice mail.
Good luck
