Congratulations, did you decide between Nova and FIU. Is Nova a nice program?
I don't get why it's taking so long considering we were the last interview session and they need to fill the spots! They really need to make decisions though because students that got accepted into other schools only have like 2 weeks to make their deposits/decision. I remember at the info session they said they make decisions pretty quick but then have to get it approved by the school or something.
thats what i was thinking! that works in my favor though if people make a decision to go elsewhere haha... this process is rough...
I am also going to UNMC and was wondering if there is a facebook group made or if one of the classes will be making one for us soon? Cant wait to meet you and everyone else!!

well scratch that, i got an email 3 minutes ago, placed on the waitlist
same!! i called them and asked where i was on the list but forgot to ask how many students they placed on the list and how many they take from it....
Welp, I also asked where I was and just got an email saying I'm 89 lmao, so I'm assuming at least 100 people. 🙁
I been waitlisted at LIU today. I hope to get accepted soon. Im so nervous Im waitlisted in two schools
@hopeful_PT13 I'm not aware of a FB group yet. I received an e-mail from admissions saying they received my deposit and would be sending out more information later in March. I'm gonna guess they'll have the FB group included with that information.

I have not decided yet. At the moment, I am leaning more towards Nova mainly due to not wanting to live in Miami. I visited Nova over Spring Break and it was a beautiful campus and the health building is really nice, unfortunately, it was a Law student giving our tour (which makes no sense to me) so I couldn't really find out what I hoped to about the program. Aside from not wanting to live in Miami, I had a great experience at FIU and actually enjoyed the interview process. If anyone has any advice between the two, please share!
i was told it was out of 116 as of thursday but don't lose hope! i asked how many they have gone through in years prior and was told although the list last year was smaller, they did go through all of it..
Personally the amount the Miami has to offer in the related field is huge. I must agree the interview process was the best I've had and it is what made me choose FIU. Great program all around!
Im currently on FIU waitlist do you have any clue if they use the waitlist often, I really like the program.
Unfortunately I am not sure if they use the waitlist often, I'm assuming they would ! Good Luck

Yea I finally received the email last week saying they had received my deposit and would be sending more info via mail later this month. I'm just ready to get everything going, hoping for more info to come this week!
Oh man really? That's crazy to me that so many people on the waitlist don't accept their seat if it opens up to them! I'll check back with them in a couple weeks and see what happens, I already had to put my deposit down for LIU though.
i know! i was shocked when she said that too but i guess they really try to keep all of their seats filled and so many people probably accept since there is no deposit for the school... they just got back from spring break today so I'm hoping a lot of phone calls will be made this week : )
