AZCOM is not my first choice but for some reason i'm attracted to that school. Maybe it's the desert air or something. but congrats and let us know how it goes. btw did you get the interview before sending in your LOR's or was everything complete?

My app is complete. The funny thing is that I called this morning to verify completion. They said I was. An hour later I checked my email and there was the invite. AZCOM isn't my first choice, but it is really close to home (UTAH). However, they do seem to have a good curriculum and students can round at Good Samaritan Hospital in Phoenix. Big, awesome hospital!!!

Has anyone else received the same invite???

Yep, but I will have to e-mail my professors before I pick a date. I'm going to be missing too many days of classes due to interviews.

miasapearl, we interview on the sameday at COMP too. 8/24! see ya there!!!
 
Congrats.

Early interview is a good sign.
 
Those of u who got AZCOM interviews, did they ever update ur INTERACT NOW status??? to reflect complete....

mine is complete b/c they told me over the phone today after I had to resend my supplemental after they "lost it". But they dont seem to update it both for CCOM and AZCOM
 
They told me I was complete as well, last week. Yet my interactnow still doesn't reflect it!
 
I got one too!!!!!!!!!! I haven't yet scheduled my date though. I went to the link they provided but there was no link I could click on to schedule anything. Just links to info about the school and the surrounding area. And a message saying "no interviews have been scheduled, please contact the admissions department"....anyone know about this? I'm really excited....I wasn't even expecting ONE interview. Well this may be my only one.

Yeah I called them today all really excited, AZCOM is my #1, anyway, they said that you have to wait 24 from being offered an interview before the system will allow you to schedule one. Hope that helps!! :)
