I have just been selected for an interview at midwestern university at downer's grove.

has anyone interviewed here within the last year?
what do you guys think of the program?

When I applied to grad school, my only regret is not taking into consideration flight costs for interviews..... :/

Hello! Would you mind sharing your stats? I applied to DG back in August and still have not heard anything from them about an interview, it's driving me crazy!

I interviewed with them in December! They have really nice facilities! Their cadaver lab is HUGE! and has windows on three sides overlooking their campus. It's little but that's okay 🙂 It's in a very nice area too! Living is pricey around there though. It's not too far from Chicago, which is nice. They start in the summer. They have a nice layout for classes, but the class sizes are larger. The pt program has 54 (I believe) students. They work with the other professions that go there which is great! I was accepted but turned it down because it's not my dream school. I also got into Concordia University Wisconsin, Northern Illinois University, and Rosalind Franklin. I was waitlisted at UW Milwaukee and University Illinois at Chicago.

My stats after the academic update(according to PTCAS):

Total GPA: 3.82
Science GPA (I've taken everything but physiology): 3.62
PT Prereqs: 3.75

GRE: 152V, 157Q, 4.5 writing

Observation Hours:

Early intervention pediatrics: 25
Nursing Home: 28
Outpatient Ortho:44
Outpatient ortho/women's health: 60

I would visit! It's a great school and campus!

Ditto to this. I also applied to MW-Az and have been waitlisted but haven't heard anything back from DG. I assume they haven't rejected us, but sounds like they've been interviewing regularly.

Let me know if you hear anything or status changes.

cGPA: 3.2
last60 GPA: 3.6
cGRE: 320

I still haven't heard anythng from DG either. Have you heard back in the last month? I got an interview and I'm an alternate at the Arizona campus, they got back to me quickly... almost the week I applied. But DG hasn't said a word accept your application is complete.

Anyone out there know what the deal is with Midwestern DG?

Midwestern DG let me know I was accepted within 2 weeks. Sadly, at this point their class is probably full because they do rolling admission
