Hello,
I was wondering if anybody has any information on the Eastern Washington University OT interview in Spokane for February 9th? I know it is group interview.

I was offered an interview last week and after accepting the interview received a follow up with more info about the interview schedule. There is a timed writing session and an individual interview as well.

 

[DanceQueen66]

I got the email as well. Are they doing both group and individual interview?

You’re right! I was thinking of an email from another school! Looks like just the group interview and group activities.

 

[DanceQueen66]

The schedule looks like a jam-packed day! I am excited 🙂

How was the interview today? The roads were too icy so I didn’t make it.

 

[OTcait]

Got my acceptance today! Anyone else? I’d love to hear what everyone thought of the program at the campus visit.

Has anyone figured out the cost of tuition for a WA resident? I am currently calculating it but I feel like its not very clear

I believe it’s $5700 per semester in state and $13,300 per semester out of state.

Tuition Rates

Ya, I found that too. I was kinda hoping the total cost was listed somewhere and I just missed it.
Thanks though, and congrats on getting in!

If anyone is curious about what I came up with here it is: (instate tuition based off the posted curriculum)
Year One Summer 8 semester credits = 4,369.60 + 975.00* = 5,344.60
Year One & Two Fall and Spring = 5,719.63 + 975.00 per semester so X 4 = 26,778.52
**Year Three Summer 8 semester credits = 4,369.60 + 975.00 = 5,344.60
Year Three Fall 8 credits = 571.96 x 8 + 975.00 = 5,550.68
TOTAL: 43,018.40

*Note: OT has an additional 975 fee per semester
** I am most confused by year three. It is 16 field work credits split between summer and fall. I just split it evenly

I think this is correct.

Exciting! I am trying to decided between EWU, UW, and UPS currently. What led you to eliminate Eastern?

I have lived in Montana for my entire life and honestly wanted a break from winters with a ton of snow. UPS and UW have a lot of other perks as well, but the location of both seemed like a good fit.

Hi,
I have just started the process of looking for places. So exciting! I am keeping an I out for a roommate, but since June will creep up fast I am also considering maybe just living alone in a studio.
