North Carolina DPT interviews (UNC, Duke, Elon, ECU, WSSU)

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Thanks for the info! Did she say about how many spots were left? Or, if our application has lasted this long, we have a good chance of getting an interview?
I tried to squeeze more info out of her, but I guess she didn't know. I asked how many applicants were remaining, and she said the committee hasn't told her anything. I didn't ask about if we had a good chance of getting an interview. I should have... Crap. Lol
 
Has anyone heard anything fromWSSU?
I was offered acceptance at WSSU via email on 2/12. I paid my seat fee there but I am also waiting to hear from interviews at UNC and Elon. Still waiting to hear anything from Duke...

Thank you! UNC is my top choice (also extremely competitive)! I was excited to hear from WSSU and funny you should ask about them today....I work as a PT Tech and a new therapist was just hired as a new grad from WSSU. Met her for the first time today and picked her brain for a bit. Said she really loved WSSU.
 
Accepted offer at UNC today....Plan to withdraw enrollment at WSSU. Good luck everyone and I'll see the other Tar Heels in August!!
Congratulations, I was hoping you would get in!!! I am also accepting my UNC offer so I'll see you in the fall! 🙂

Edited: plan to withdraw enrollment at Duke.

For those of you on the waitlist for UNC, I just sent my email declining my spot. I'm accepting a little closer to home at EWU. My best wishes to you all!
 
Was it general scholarship info...or specific (i.e. did you receive a scholarship)? Did you apply for a scholarship?

I'm guessing it was a financial aid scholarship? Not sure though. It just said that the program was pleased to inform me that I received an EDPT scholarship and had the amount of the scholarship that's to be given per semester. I didn't apply for any scholarships but I did send in my financial aid info.
 
Has anyone heard an updates on Duke's interview situation?
I contacted them today. They filled 70/75 spots. They said they will be conducting skype interviews, and we should expect to hear something between now and April.
 
I've been thinking about calling but don't want to annoy them. I just need to know ahead of time if there's a day I should request off work.
I just received my rejection email. So maybe that opened up a spot for you! I guess I'll be relying on my in-state program. Good luck!!!!
 
For those who are still being considered at Duke, I just called to get information about future interviews.
They are in the process of conducting Skype interviews. They can be scheduled at any time during your availability (thus we don't have to sit down on a Saturday at 1pm), and they will be about 30-45 minutes long.
As they look through applications, they have been inviting people, so there is no strict deadline 🙁
Has anyone been offered an interview yet? I haven't heard anything, but figured no news is still good news.
Best of luck to everyone!

Did they email you on a Saturday? Do you mind if we compare stats? I'm still "being considered," but I have no idea where I'm at on their list lol
Congrats by the way!
So they actually emailed me on 3/9 extending the opportunity to interview and JUST emailed me at 11:03 on a sunday night scheduling my interview for wednesday morning via skype.

GPA: 3.96 cum, 3.91 prereq
Hours: 150ish in a variety of settings (kinda low)
Extras: womens club soccer, two jobs, bunch of clubs, pre-pt eboard member, etc.

Good luck, you're going to do great! Please let us know how it goes 🙂
 
Does anyone have any updates for Duke? Last time I spoke with them they said they were planning on finalizing everything by mid-April. Any ideas of how late they plan to get back to us/if they have already sent out their final offers?

They're really good at replying super fast. I would just ask them.
