I just interviewed at Barry and was accepted on the spot! It seemed to be a great school with very friendly people. I would interview as soon as possible to avoid being shut out.
I live right outside of Philly in the suburbs (25 min from Temple) so I'm just driving down that morning. Where are you coming from? I think there are a bunch of people interviewing that day. I'm Chris btw...aim @ crhoody12
Yes, Barry treated me very well also when I interviewed a few years back. The prompt service and numerous scholarships are nice for prospective and current students. I'm not a big fan of acceptance on the spot, but if you are a good student and/or had to travel far for the interview, it's deserved. Ohio St did that for me when I interviewed for a MS program there. It's good to hear you had a positive experience at Barry.
The new Barry GMS building is needed, but when they get it, the combo of many FT faculty, tons of diverse local clinics and hospital experiences for students, lots of scholarships, and good resources on campus will make is an above average pod program.
Barry hasn't been terribly selective recently, but it's just due to lack of apps. I'm more impressed with the 2010 class talent than my own 09 class, and hopefully it'll keep getting better and better. Unlike other schools that just accept and accept for more tuition $, Barry has kept incoming class sizes pretty uniform (75-85 usually) even despite increasing interest, and that should lead to increasingly good performance.

You arent a UW grad are ya?
And a question to the crowd and anyone reading this:
Im gonna be interviewing at scholls ny and temple the end of oct. Im curious if anyone has some really strong reccomendations as far as apartments and housing go. Like specific buildings or a specific management group to check out. Id really like to scope out the options on this swing around the 3 schools, just to get a feeling of how far away/expense/etc. Thanks in advance!
Sorry not a UW grad ... Penn State University grad in december ... lets go state!

What is the best way to tell the schools that you aren't interested in anymore that you don't want to interview at their school?
And is it better to reject them in writing (email or written letter) or to call in?

I'd man up and call them on the phone. It's best to let them know ASAP; they can then fill your interview/tour spot with a different applicant.
I sure wouldn't use the word "reject" or "decline" during the conversation, though... they just invited you, they never accepted you. It's a quite presumptious to assume that you're going to have to "reject them" 😉. Just be polite and direct... thank them for the invite/opportunity but state that you have already decided on another grad school.

From what I remembered, AZPOD doesn't start interviewing until mid October. Keep in mind that the application has been only available for 3 or so weeks now so it's still pretty early in the game.
I just recieved a supplemental app. from them...I didn't even know there was such a thing with pod. apps.
same here...just got one. I think this is the first time that a pod school used a sec. app but I could be wrong.
same here got a supp app at AZPOD

Mine had 4, but I've heard from others they've had around 8.
I believe that it is similar to the DO school where you'll receive one as long as you meet the minimum requirements. Good luck guys and gals!
Mine had 8 too
Could someone let me know how NYCPM contacts you for an interview? I haven't heard anything from them yet, do they contact you first to let you know they have your app? Just curious, thanks

How did the interview go?
Excellent overall. 😀
3 interviews at NYCPM (basic sciences professor, DPM, and a 3rd year student). Did all the interviews back to back. I visited the school earlier in the year so I didn't go on a tour or watch their video. Then we had some lunch and finished the day. Everything was very relaxed and not stressful. It started about 10:30am and I left around 2:00pm.
Temple was great as well. I visited this school earlier in the year too. They pay for 2 nights at the doubletree hotel in downtown philly...very very nice in the accomodation department. Enjoy the amazing cookies and the whirlpool at the hotel! The interview day was somewhat long (8:30 - 3:15pm) which included a tour of parts of the health science campus. There was only 1 interview and that was with a DPM. Again, very enjoyable experience and relaxed. There was some sitting around as we had to wait for the other students to finish interviewing (there were 5 applicants including me) but other than that the day went smoothly.
If you have any specific questions, feel free to send me a PM.

At Temple, did they say when you could expect to hear from there regarding your admission? Did you get to see the student housing? At Scholl, they do not take you by to see the student housing.
