I was wait listed as well! Congrats to those that got accepted! :)

Members don't see this ad.
 
I was accepted off the wait list on Thursday and emailed them this morning saying that I will not be accepting the spot. Hopefully this allows someone to be accepted soon. Good luck to everyone!

I just emailed sarah boswell that I have declined my offer for acceptance. Someone should be getting a call if they are on the waitlist!! Best of luck.

Congrats, me too!! Have you been successful finding apartments to stay at?

I was also looking at apartments. I feel like it's going to be 700 at least for anywhere. I really want a studio or loft but also was wondering if it is a good idea to have a roommate in the program? Any thoughts?

I feel like having a roommate in the program would be beneficial because you guys could study together! It would also be cheaper with a roommate!

Hi sorry so late, but yes I am the same. I really think the Lofts would be the best idea if you stay by yourself, but there are some apartments downtown that I think would be fine with a rommmate.
 
Anyone know if the class is full yet or has anyone else heard off of the wait list?
 
I am not sure but a girl I know got chosen from the waitlist like a week after I did (so last Thursday). But not sure if the class is full or not.

Hey otgalz! May I ask when Jefferson sent you an interview invitation? And was it through the mail like years past?

I emailed Sarah in early December and she responded back with "The deadline was November 1st, so the OT Dept. is currently reviewing applications. My hope is they will have decisions for interviews made after the first of the year, with interviews being in February." I thought people would start hearing back after the 1st of the year, but if anyone has heard back already, how did they get ahold of you?

I got an email 12/19! I know they have 3 seperate interview dates, so maybe they have not emailed for the other two yet!
 
Has anyone else heard back from Jefferson yet about an interview?

Can either of you (or anyone else) tell me anything about Jefferson's interview? Mine is supposed to be Friday, but I have yet to receive an email regarding any details. I would love to know something before walking in there completely unprepared.

I wish I could but I haven’t gotten anything else besides the information about hotels and parking. All I know is that there’s an individual interview, a writing sample, and a group activity.

I haven't even received the hotels/parking info email so I'm totally clueless here!

I was told the interview is 9:00-2:00 and there is a group and individual interview. I did receive an email about hotel information if you’d like me to share that with you.

*Update: Anita actually just emailed me so you don't need to share the info but thanks for your willingness to do so!

That would be awesome! I think I really just need the room location and any parking information they gave you. I emailed Dr. Haynes on Monday, but haven't gotten anything back and just left a message for Anita so I've made an effort!
