Acceptance Offer Wait Time

[oatstudentadvice]

Hey guys! I'm not super knowledgable about the optometry admissions timeline so I would appreciate any input regarding this. Once we complete an interview and receive an offer of acceptance, approximately how long are we given to accept the offer? I'm mainly asking because I'm wondering if I can keep certain offers until I finish all my interviews? Or if I need to make an immediate decision..

I was given 14 days from the day I received my acceptance email to make a decision.

I think it depends on what part of the year you interview. I know people who interviewed late in the cycle and they only had a week or less.

I was planning on applying early, from end of July to early August because I don't view myself as a super strong applicant.
