Just got my first rejection yesterday from NOVA by mail 🙁
I am getting worried as I have not received any interview invites yet. I am attempting to stay hopeful as I know most of the schools I have applied to have not began sending out invites yet. I applied to 8 schools in the second batch and added 4 more in the sixth batch and I am starting to worry that I did not apply to enough schools...
 
Shake this one off partner...Plenty of better schools on your list anyway!! I'm worried about this guy to, they reject quick time!!
 
Keep your head up!!!!!!

I have received some interviews... but I was also just rejected from NOVA. Other schools are looking for different things. You'll be fine, just hang in there for a few more weeks.

Best of LUCK! :xf:
 
Hang in there. The interview invitations have just begun. Your DAT score looks great, and I'm sure some invites will be coming your way in the near future!

Interesting. I was actually surprised with NOVA. They only received my application a few days ago, but I received a phone call from them saying they were processing everything and that they needed me to fax them a form. It seemed odd that they would have already begun processing my file, as I've heard next to nothing from most other schools.
 
Oh, don't worry. Nova wasn't meant to be.
I have also applied to 10 schools, and I feel like it's more than enough.
 
Thanks for the positive words guys.

I am happy with my dat scores, however I am nervous about my gpa:
Ogpa : 3.47
BCP : 3.3
sgpa : 3.15 <-- this is what I am super worried about!!

I have lots of ec's like research, dental assisting and volunteering hours, ortho internship and so on but that science gpa is killing me! I wish it was like .2 higher!
 
Nova also called me to let me know they were processing my application. I was surprised that were already processing it because I just sent it to them last friday.
 
I think I got the rejection letter too... I'm not home right now, but got the call from my family that I received a letter from NOVA.... sucks.... two years ago, I applied, while everyone was getting rejected from them quite quickly I was actually rejected in May when I applied in September... I guess my improvements on my DAT didn't do much. Perhaps a different adcom reviewed my file this time =). Anyways keep your head up, it's still very early in the game. When I applied in 2010, I didn't get my 2 interviews until January. Good luck!
