Most schools will give an interview without an OAT, which is the predicament I am in. But schools such as SCCO and Berkeley are adamant about having the OAT scores and will not grant an interview. Schools that I am positive give an interview without OAT scores are : SUNY, PCO, ICO. NOVA claims they don't but I have heard of people getting interviews without OAT scores.

Yes, SUNY for sure gives interviews without OAT scores... i guess your grades and application overall has to be really good though. I heard they give out 3 responds to those type of interviews.
1. we don't want you
2. we want want you for sure, just get score above ___ and you are in automaticaly.
3. we like you so far, but we need your OAT to make our final decision.
i hope that made sense...it was explained to me by one of the people in admisions at SUNY (2 and 3 are alike, but 2 pretty much means you are in almost 100%...you just need to not FAIL your OAT)

What were your stats if you don't mind sharing? I am applying to SUNY as well and would like to have a realistic idea of someone getting an interview there without OAT scores, like myself.
Thanks.
Thanks.
