How important do you think the Information Tips session is? (Well it for Senton Hill campus). I completely forget about it and had to cancel as I wasn't able to make it.
I know it was optional so hopefully no matter

I attended yesterday and I thought it would be more information on the interview/tips to prepare for it. The guy gave a general overview and the "tips" were like have good lighting, no distractions, dress professional, and not about the content of the interview. Personally, not super helpful. The rest of the time was Q&A about LECOM so delving into the different pathways, board exams, rotations, campus culture type info. Hope this helps. I wouldn't say you missed much at all.

Did they give you any timeline on decisions after you submit your video interview? Did they indicate any kind of "on campus visit and group interview?"

There is no group interview. The vidcruiter questions is all there is.

Thanks. When you receive your on campus invite, I would be curious as to whether it says the same as this:
"We would like to invite you to participate in an “On Campus Day Event”. During the day you will become more familiar with our campus and curricular offerings and participate in a group interview session."

Yes, they talked about an on-campus event. After you complete the asynchronous interview, you will receive a link to sign up. It is optional but attending will be beneficial.

Thanks. Beneficial to show interest for sure. Did they mention when they would start letting people know about acceptances?

oh interesting... I did the vidcruiter interview this morning. How long after yours did you receive this email?

I thought the title was misleading as well. I had mine this week, and in it they told us that the deadline for our interview was actually earlier than what the email said.
They explained the different pathways and answered questions during it as well.

No idea if they use it to evaluate candidates as well, I hope not. I did my asynchronous yesterday, definitely not my strong suit.

Hey I missed the zoom session because I am on vacation, but I am still going to do the interview tomorrow. What do you mean by the deadline is actually earlier than what the email said? I am in a different time zone so I don't want to mess this up!

I'm not sure what they meant by that... in the Zoom session he said to have it submitted by Thurs midnight EST
 
So I did my interview for LECOM senton hill, I didn't see any options to rank my choices? I mean I am happy to apply to only LECOM senton hill but does the option to rank LECOM branches like not exist this cycle?
 
Just got an II but didnt get an email to rank campuses. Is that something we do affter the interview?

I was in the week prior to this. I received my II email on a Monday 7/29 that said we have 7 days from receipt of the email to do the asynchronous II. When I went to the zoom session the next day on 7/30, we were told that we had until Thursday at midnight, regardless of what our email said.

To be fair I did also receive an email on Thursday saying that it was due at midnight, but that went to my spam and I didn't actually see that until today. If I didn't go to the zoom meeting, I wouldn't have known it was due Thursday at midnight.

Have they changed the initial II emails to reflect the Thursday midnight deadline?

Did anyone get a confirmation email after submitting the supplemental email? On my own record, I wrote that I submitted it on 7/14, but on my portal, the fourth arrow is still blue, and I haven't heard anything from them since submitting it. It does say that "your application and checklist items have been submitted; you are waiting to be reviewed."

I'm at the same step on the portal too. I submitted my secondary applications for LECOM on July 8th.

damn how is this normal? Its literally been a month? Maybe I'm being too neurotic but seeing other ppl get IIs is putting me on edge loll. I'm gonna try calling them today and will circle back if they say anything
 
Does anyone's portal show a checklist that says prereqs, letters, and application fee? I just saw it today, it wasn't there yesterday for me
 
noxlle said:
I just checked mine and even though it says "application completed" I have a bunch of the red plus marks. I sent an email to admissions so hopefully they'll lmk what's going on.

Mine has the same thing. The red plus marks haven't been there before today so maybe it's a glitch in the system. I sent them an email as well so we'll see what they say.

I have these as well and my apps still say waiting for review and I haven’t received an II so I guess it’s an everyone thing
 
Did anyone figure out or attend an on-campus event. Just wondering what the group interview is like?
 
Did anyone hear back from the admissions department about the red plus marks? Mine are still there when I checked today and I cannot get in touch with anyone on the admissions team.

Did anyone get a text after interview asking to select pathway? I can’t find it anywhere on the portal and am very confused
Click to expand...
I just got a text too. Not only I don't see the pathway link, but also apparently all of my application materials are marked missing. Like WTH
 
How big of a disadvantage is it to not attend the optional zoom session? I’ll be at work then and definitely can’t make it although I’d really like to.

nothing yet, same situation...

Just heard back from someone in the admissions office. They said the reason we are seeing the red plus marks is that they confirm those portions of our applications manually. Essentially, she told me that this means they have not gotten to our application yet, but it is still deemed complete.

gotcha, thanks for the update, makes me less anxious LOL
 
Do you need to attend the on campus session? I wonder if attendance affects your admission decision.
