hey,
mandatory canidate visist=interview, they dont call it an interview because you interviewed with other applicants at the same table. good luck, reember to think professional.

👍

 

[jlpolla]

I wouldn't. They are very small and dated. You can find a much larger and nicer apartment within 5 minutes of campus for the same price. Driving to school is not too bad, I actually kinda like the feeling of going home to get away from things at school after awhile 😛

I don't think that your bf would be able to live with you in campus housing anyway. I wanna say I heard someone ask that question when we got a tour of the campus. The answer was that only students can live in campus housing.

 

[jlpolla]

I believe that spouses/children are only allowed to live in the pines apartmets, but like I said I wouldn't recommend it because it is very similar to dorm life.

Anyone here going to CCP for an interview on March 14th?

 

[Enderwiggin]

I got an interview on the 6th of March. I heard from other forums dating back on the 30th of January that 80/110 seats were already filled. Is it already to late to get seats? I think I might be wait listed at this point. 🙁

[spark423]

has anyone that interviewed in late february heard anything from ccp?

 

[jpharm445]

Does anyone know if CCP gives preference to Illinois residents? I ask because the tuition is lower for residents according to their website. Curious.

They usually do... but a majority of student come from either Illinois or California...

 

[whoopya03]

[Pharmaddict]

Hey all, for those who interviewed on March 10 and the week , how are you all preparing to to receive the letter coming up next week? I am really anxious about what will happen? How did all your interviews go?

 

[LilN88]

[whoopya03]

[hello18]

don't be too discouraged... most people on the alternate list tend to be accepted due to the fact that a lot of people drop out... just wait it out...

Is anyone actually rejected after an interview?

 

[hello18]

Is anyone actually rejected after an interview?

probably not... however, I actually did read of one instance where someone was rejected after interview... but not sure how true that story is...

 

[blackstar]

I just got my waitlist notice today too, I interviewed on Feb 16th. It said that its not ranked, does that mean that people are pulled off randomly? Im not feeling too optimistic at this point

i don't think they pull people off randomly. from what i hear, since it's not numbered, is that once a spot opens up, they will pull files of everyone who is on the alternate list and review them. they will then make a decision from there.

 

[whoopya03]

probably not... however, I actually did read of one instance where someone was rejected after interview... but not sure how true that story is...

thanks for the boost...but now...i'm just feelin like whatever goes...goes. if it's meant to be, it'll be. right now there's not much we can do...sooo just hope for the best and expect the worst.

Reading all your replies, makes me nervous! I wonder what's in store for me....I am crossing my fingers and waiting... getting anxious by the day. I really want to go to this school because I love since I have seen it during the interview. Well how where you all notified regarding your specific responses... do they call if you get accepted? or was it an e-mail?

Cross my fingers!

 

[Pharmaddict]

Sorry... double post by mistake

Sometimes they call but if anything expect a small envelope in the mailbox with either an acceptance or alternate list written on it... Hope for the first one of course... 👍

What is the best way to prepare for the interview at CPG? Are the questions, and the essay all based on scenarios that you may or may not have experienced? I know a kid who asked him what was the last book he read. Is that really a question they would ask? What are they looking for there?

Review the interview feedback section... that really helped me.... essay is not really an essay, it's just a few questions regarding how your day went... as for the person who got "what was the last book he read?" I really wouldn't worry about it, they mostly ask the generic questions... but of course you should have all bases covered... Good luck...

Interviewed on Feb 20 and got my acceptance letter today 👍. I personally thought the group interview thing wasn't for me. I could have done better if I was alone. I thought I did the worst out of the 5 interviewees that were in their along with me, but I guess I didn't do as bad as I thougt I did. So for what it's worth....don't try to guess your performance as compared to the other members in your group interview. So now I have a decision to make...I got into Ohio State as well...now which one to choose..any suggestions would be appreciated. Best of luck to all.

Ohio State...soooo i can take your spot (i'm on the alternate list). hahaha JK! but honestly, pick the school based on what your heart feels is best. nothing is worst than attending a school where you feel uncomfortable. you'll be regretting it till you're out...if you make it out. CONGRATS! 🙂

I interviewed on 3/14 and I haven't heard anything as well. I hate the wait!

we are all in the same boat! I interviewed on 3/10, and getting anxious by the day!!! how are you all dealing with your anxiousness... I am trying to find my reactions when I will find the letter in my mailbox.... so accepted I will running around the house, screaming, jumping.. and screaming " I got accpeted"... I think I'll be a kid that day... but if the "alternate list comes then I guess I will be a bit dissapointed and I will just wait till my acceptance arrives ( if it comes that is)....

Yeah agedPharmtech I agree with whoopya03, clearly you've to spend your fours most important years... so make a choice by your heart, also you have to keep in mind the financial aspects of both the schools, also the environment, if it suites your lifestyle; the program itself and the opportunities it provides you with.

Good luck...
