Does anyone know how Dominican University's interview process is? What kind of questions they ask? I know there it is a panel with other students.

This is the 1st year for DU interviews. I am a current student, if you have any questions feel free to PM me.

When did you get your invite for the interview? What date are you scheduled for? I applied to DU of CA and am still waiting to hear back.

I received a letter today saying that there will be three different mailings for notification depending on when your application packet was received. If you had everything sent in by January 15th you should know by Feb 1st of your status.

I interviewed with them on Friday 27th. Hope this helps someone out in internets land:
Panel interview with two faculty and two other students. They asked about 6 questions. The faculty changed the order of which applicant answered first, middle and last (to keep it fair).
Questions are (paraphrased):
1. What is your view of OT?
2. Tell us about a difficult team situation and how you dealt with it.
3. Why do you want to be an OT?
4. What have you done to prepare for graduate level studies?
5. Why Dominican?
6. What are your personal and professional goals for the next 5 years?

My advice: review their website about the OT program, review your own resume and personal statement.

Also, they were really, really nice at this interview. It was much more fun than the Samuel Merritt interview. Good Luck!
