Hey everyone! I'm starting OT school in the fall and wanted to make a thread so that you guys can discuss the application process together and can all follow each other's progress during this process, ask questions, and support each other along the way! I saw a thread with this same idea a few...

Hello everyone! I was accepted into both PCO and MCPHS this past week. They are both my top choices for optometry schools and I know they both have pros and cons. I wanted to reach out to any current students to get their opinions on these two schools (school life, personal life, likes...

Hi, So I interviewed at Salus over a week ago (11/8). I got an email from them on Friday asking if I can get my letter of recommendation from my TA cosigned by the professor. This professor is super busy and is very particular about who he gives letters to so I was unable to get a signature...

Hello! I have an interview at Salus (11/4/19) and was wondering if anybody had any insight on their process/what kind of questions they asked! Any help would be amazing; I am super nervous! Thank you!!

I know there are posts comparing the 2 but I am looking for some updated recent feedback on the 2 schools. I was accepted at both and I already paid a deposit at one of them but I am wondering what you guys think about each school. My impression is PCO was a nicer school than ICO. PCO has brand...

hello, I was recently accepted to salus and my top choice(ICO) invited me to fill out my supplemental which I’m sure they’ll invite me for an interview. My question is, would salus give me an extension on the deposit due date? I want to interview at ICO before I make my final decision.

I’m torn between these three schools!! I’ve been accepted to Temple and Jefferson...still waiting from Salus. With my stats, I think I should be accepted. (They asked me to retake the MAT before giving me a final decision which I did (got the scores!) and been waiting on them for over a month..)...

Hey guys! I applied to NECO and Salus and got interview offers from both of them. Would it be stupid to turn down the Salus offer and only go to the NECO interview?

Hey everyone! I've been nervous about my shadowing hours and wanted to see people's thoughts on my chances of getting into schools. I applied to NECO and SALUS. GPA: 3.8 average, 3.7 science Majors: Biology and Neuroscience OAT: 360 AA/ 370 TS Extracurriculars: ~400 hours of volunteering (blood...

Hello, I had some questions for the admissions process once accepted to the programs at schools such as Temple, Salus, and Usciences. I want to live in the Philadelphia area and have already been accepted to programs but I live far so I wanted to know whats involved. Does anyone know if these...

Hi all, I was hoping I could get some help from anyone who had already applied to Salus University's Regular/Scholars program. I'm going into my junior year and I'm a bit torn between whether or not I need to take Calc. 2. I was wondering if those who had gotten into Salus's Regular/Scholars...

Hey everyone. I begin my first year of Optometry at Salus this upcoming Fall and I have been having a difficult time trying to find a good apartment to live in. I am not very familiar with Elkins Park or the surrounding areas. Any suggestions for rentals (home or apartment) are very much...

Hello everyone I wanted to write this to give those in pre-optometry or considering optometry an idea of what to expect and tips about going through the process. I wished someone had put something like this out there when I was going through the process, so I figured I would try to help you all...

I am from So Cal and I have never been away from home, so moving to the East Coast would be a major life change for me. So I am still in shock but I received a letter of acceptance from Salus. The letter says I have 14 days to decide or put the $500 deposit. I am still waiting to hear back...

Hi! I was wondering if any current students at Chatham, Temple, Salus, or Shenandoah could share about their MOT student experience. How vigorous/stressful are the programs, are you enjoying OT school, what you like and dislike about the program, etc. I wanted to get a student POV about each...

Hi! I'm reaching out to learn more about Salus University and their OT program! If there are any current students, alumni, or other future students who may be applying there, I'd love to hear from you! Thanks so much!!

I have an interview at Salus University next month and I'd love any advice/information about the program and interview process from current OT students. By the way, I applied on Monday and heard from them Tuesday so they got back to me really fast compared to any other OT program! Thanks in advance!
