Nothing at all, so I called a while ago and they said that all notifications of acceptance have been pushed back due to corona virus since the office of the registrar is closed. They told to reach out and ask if students have already been notified or to see when the new notification dates will be. They gave me contact info for the chair of OT Dr. Banks.

I sent her an email basically asking if decisions had been rendered and if not when would could we be expecting to hear back. Hopefully she responds! I’m getting anxious. Lol.
Hey, did you ever hear back from the last email you sent ?

I wonder when they will start sending out updates. I hope soon, the wait is killing me.
 
Likewise !! Do any of you know how many people they interview versus how many are accepted?
 
They accept about 30 students +/- 1-2. Idk how many are usually interviewed tho.

Hello, everyone! I am so happy to have found this forum. I was invited for an interview, it is scheduled for the 20th of this month. I'm aware that you may not be able to share specifics about the interview questions, but do you guys have any advice or tips for me? I am so nervous, but extremely grateful to have the opportunity of an interview. Thanks in advance :)

Hi !! Congrats on your interview. Be sure to know the purpose of the program, Why you want to be an OT and why you’re a great candidate, have questions pertaining to the program. They also asked scenario questions and different questions Ike what does this certain saying mean to you. Remain positive throughout the interview and good luck

My interview was pretty identical to what was mentioned! Know the mission of Howard. The interview felt like a conversation. So once you get your nerves out you will be absolutely fine! Be prepared to talk about any leadership roles/work experience that you have relating to OT! Good luck to you! I’m sure you will be great.

Hello!
Congrats on the interview, Erin and Yelande pretty much took the words right out of my mouth lol. (Have a pretty clear idea of what OT ,in general, means to you too). Just take those tips they mentioned above and you should do fine :giggle:.

Hi!!
No one has let us know as of yet if everything will be online. As of now it seems to be a regular schedule lined up for Fall. Pretty sure if anything changes they will update us immediately.
