Great!! Thank you so much! Is there a hotel you specifically would recommend that isn't too expensive? I am coming the day before and would like it to be somewhat close to campus. I see that they have a list but I figured you might know better! Thanks for the help 🙂

Hi, three are very close to the University Dr. Extended stay, Holiday inn and woodspring suites , all three rooms are really basic according to what I heard but for the purpose they are good, affordable and within a mile distance.

To those who have interviewed already:

When does the interview day end? I am trying to figure out scheduling/flights since I'll be flying all the way from the West Coast.

Thanks!

Hi, starts at 11:30 AM. I finished at 1:30 PM but it could go all the way until 5:00 Pm.
 
Hi all, I received an interview invitation today as well but the email says to pick the time slot at 11AM. However, it looks like all interview slots are at 11:30AM. Just wanted to check if those who already interviewed experienced the same thing when scheduling your slot? Thanks!

The day starts at 11:30 for everyone because you get the opportunity to see the facility/clinic, meet the student ambassadors and also meet the assistant dean. Then at 1:30 is when you will start individual interviews where they will be calling randomly by members of the committee. From there, the time you will finish all depends when they call you to interview.

Hi, I just received an invitation to interview at NOVA. Does anyone have any advice before I interview? I scheduled my interview for 9/22

Just relax and dont prepare answers. They want to get to know you and see if your personality is a good fit for the program. They have a very friendly and caring environment and want to keep it that way. You can tell as soon as you step on the campus.

Good to know. Thank you!
 
Hello everyone! I was wondering if Nova had a closed file interview or open file interview! Also my interview is coming up.. and I see a lot of people saying that don't prepare for the interview, and I was wondering what type of questions are "conversational"! 🙂 Thank you in advance!

Did anyone receive instructions such as the building/schedule before their interview? I only received the email with how to register my license plate
 
Just finished my interview yesterday, it went well and was very relaxed! Mine lasted around 20 minutes and spent most of the time talking about my hobbies and interests. Definitely more conversational, so no need to stress too much. The most typical interview question they asked was why I came to Nova as a Canadian applicant. Everything else was chill and smooth sailing, so overall it was a great experience! Good luck everyone 🙂

Thank you for sharing your experience! So glad everything went smooth for you. Would you say that the questions asked were follow ups of what you've answered? Like would you say you're able to gear your int in a certain direction at Nova? Bc I know for some other schools they have a set of questions so you aren't able to go into other aspects of your app and have to stay on track w their questions. Thank you!
 
Can someone who has already been interviewed tell me the names of the people conducting the interviews?
 
Hi everyone! Did anyone else receive a phone call to confirm their status? I submitted my supplemental on Friday and received the call today!

I'm interviewing in a couple of weeks and I got that email. It's just a marketing email that everyone who applied gets. It got directed to my spam folder lol. I wouldn't worry about it or overthink it! 🙂

hi! for those who have interviewed already, does the "number in group" that's in the confirmation email represent the order at which you will be interviewed? or does it just say 1 for everyone else as well? thanks in advance 🙂

Hey! No the number doesn't indicate the order in which you'll be interviewed. They actually don't let you know bc you'll just be called in by your interviewer.
 
For those who interviewed: is your aadsas portal still invited for interview?
