I also received an interview invitation for November 2oth! I will browse the forum to see if anyone posted information from last cycle.

Just curious, did you have everything verified in OTCAS before you got an interview? (including transcripts and evaluations)

I am still waiting on one transcript to arrive even though I requested it a month ago

My application was verified before I submitted my application fee to Hofstra (both transcripts and evaluation). Are you waiting for OTCAS to receive your transcripts or Hofstra?

I am waiting for OTCAS to receive one transcript. It is annoying because it is only for one class but it is a prerequisite so I have to send it in

It is normal for transcripts to be recieved in 3 to 5 business days per the transcript clearing house unless there is a hold such as incorrect billing address or payments due.

Did you find anything??

Did you find anything??

Here is what I found on the forum: (not much)

It was individual, It was relaxed and I felt really comfortable talking with Dr. Countee, she asked me basic questions that you can find if you just google "OT grad school interview questions" and then I was able to ask questions at the end!

I was verified by OTCAS two weeks ago and I still have not heard anything from them. How long does it take them to get back to you?

I got an interview for Hofstra!!!

Can someone give me an insight on what the interview is like?

I found out I got accepted into Hofstra yesterday! Is there anyone in the current program right now? If so, how do you like it?

Congrats! I got accepted as well. How do you feel about the program? The fact that it is not fully accredited yet does make me a bit nervous/hesitant to go there.

I feel the same way but they said they should be accredited by the time the first class needs to take their boards. I feel that if they got this far, they most likely will be ok.

I have my interview in 2 days. What did they ask? My confirmation email says its going to be a group interview. Was yours also a group interview? Any advice?
