I don't have an answer to your question but I also got offered an interview today 🙂 Do you mind telling me where you're from? I live in Southern California and the trip is so soon and going to be so expensive for me to get there. I called them and she said they can do an Zoom interview, but I'm worried it will look badly for me. But I just can't justify spending $1000 for an interview trip!

It was really good! You get a brief introduction to the program, interview with 2 professors, meet some current students, and tour the facilities. It would be a long commute for me to get there but I honestly prefer it way more than other programs in my area.
Yes you do have a writing prompt! The interview was pretty short, maybe 15 minutes. Mine ran over because we got talking about some other things but it couldn't have been more than 20/25 minutes. They asked why OT and some other more traditional work interview questions (give me a time you struggled at something and how did you overcome it, etc.).
I would prepare for questions beyond just OT related.

Mine was very similar. Very short and to the point.
I was accepted today also! Not sure if I will be going or not though. Leaning towards Salus as I feel Philly will have more job opps for my fiance than Mechanicsburg.
