[OT/2016]

Honestly pretty late, like December 15 or sometime around then. But it said they are conducting interviews until March so there's still a lot of time!

I applied and my check was cashed mid November seems odd that they would not respond by now when others have. I will just keep waiting. congratulations on your interview

[LycheeOT]

I would contact OTCAS asap!

How coincidental!?!
They just emailed me literally one minute ago, and said it's verified! Took only 1 day They said in 1 hour my GPA will be up on my OTCAS.

Anyways I'll post my stats to get an honest opinion from you guys!! I'm still a senior in college (graduating in spring 2017 semester) if I don't get in this cycle, I don't mind waiting until next cycle; I just want to see if I get in, doesn't hurt to try

 

[heretoenhancelives]

Is anyone still waiting on AT Still or Midwestern? I still have not heard back from them. Do they contact you if you get rejected because this feels like implied rejection

When did you apply?

I sent in the secondary application for AT Still and they deemed it complete on the 10th of October. I sent the secondary application for midwestern and they deemed it complete on the 11th of November. I haven't heard anything since. And I've called both schools and my application is still in the review stage.

I don't know about Midwestern because my application was complete the first week of October (I ended up declining the interview), but my AT Still application was complete 10/3 and I interviewed 12/9.

• I think I've narrowed it down to WashU and Belmont, but now I don't know what to do! Belmont is OTD while I was accepted to the MSOT program at WashU. Belmont is WAY more expensive, but I loved the campus and Nashville, and it's closer to home. It would only take one more semester at Belmont to get my OTD as opposed to a masters at WUSTL, but I feel crazy turning down such a highly ranked school.

• Does anyone have any insight on either of the programs? I want to focus more on clinical than research. I am over the moon to be able to have this choice, but I'm just so stuck right now and I have to give the schools my answer soon, so anything is helpful!

Hi! I don't have much insight on Belmont, but I was accepted to WashU too! I had that tough decision where I had to decide whether or not I wanted to go to WashU. I ended up turning down their offer because I knew it I would be unhappy there. Even though it has a great reputation, I would be sacrificing my happiness if I had to move down to St. Louis. I ended up going with a more expensive OTD program closer to home, similar to Belmont!

Verbal GRE score of 169?! Wow! Congrats on that and your acceptance to Wash U!!!

 

[atroposlachesis]

Thank you so much! I owe it all to the Manhattan Prep guides and flashcards. Seriously, I don't mean to do product placement, but they know exactly what words will show up on the test. I also went from a truly abysmal 137 in the quant. to a 144 with their guides - which isn't a huge leap but it sure helped! Can't recommend them enough!

How long did you study with those guides before you took the GRE?

That's fantastic, good for you. I used Manhattan prep's flash cards and books as well. Definitely think the flash cards came in handy for memorizing vocab! Let's hope they see this - maybe we'll get some compensation for the plug

 

[atroposlachesis]

How long did you study with those guides before you took the GRE?

Oh, I studied for months. But that was primarily because I've been years out of math classes and I had a looot to catch up on. For the verbal, I studied for a couple weeks. I think one of the biggest curves was learning how to take the test - the little things that added up. Like knowing that half of the battle is endurance. If you have a chance to take a practice test, do. Just to get the feel for it. Out of the steps I took to be a competitive candidate, the GRE was the biggest pain in the patoosh.

I will add a big hint that a previous student gave me, because I found it very helpful and indicative of the profession as a whole. In your essay, highlight how you overcame a major challenge in your life. OT is all about finding meaning through adaptation/remediation, and admissions teams are very much looking for how candidates can facilitate their therapeutic use of self.

OTmomma, wouldn't that be great? Gotta finance school somehow!

I received an email a while ago from KUMC saying they would be notifying everyone of their admission decision by email on or before January 15th. I have not received an email yet. Has anyone heard from them recently?

Out of the ones you listed, I applied to Springfield and Sacred Heart. I submitted and verified my application back in October and have not heard back from either one, but also, I think Sacred Heart has already conducted their interviews. So I think its safe to say I'm not getting in there. As for Springfield, I think they release all the acceptances at a later time compared to some of the other schools.
