Nova interview invite

I just recieved an interview invite from Nova scheduled for Nov. 18. Considering that Nova is one of my back up schools, I want to push my interview date to after Dec. 1 if I get invited to the schools I am really hoping to attend ( UCSF and UOP). Does anyone know if this is even possible and if it is, is it a good idea? I live in the Bay Area and I don't want to take a trip to Florida if I don't have to.

hmmm.....well id say pushing back your interview dates is a bad idea in general....decreases your chance of getting in......its tough to call.....in my opinion getting into any school is great....so keep all of your options open......i know people who had 8 interviews last year and only got into 2 schools.....an interview by no means guarantees acceptance

it depends, if you have a killer DAT like 21+ and a good gpa, then it probably wouldn't be too too bad, considering it is a backup school for you. If you're in state for UCSF and UOP, and you have a good dat and good gpa, experience/shadowing, then you'll probably get into your state school. If you've gotten an interview this soon you're probably a strong candidate.

You can call and tell them you have an obligation that day that you forgot or something, but a post dec interview might decrease your chances, but i've heard that Nova doesn't fill their entire class on Dec 1st, so you'd probably still have a very good chance at being accepted on January 15th (2nd round of acceptances)

idk for sure, up to you

***can i ask, how long were you under review for until your interview invite??
Thanks

I don't understand why my application status doesn't show up on AADSAS. My mailing date was back in July 30.

 

[Plopper]

Idk my mailing date was 8/6 and under review on 8/16
Did you fill out the secondary??

Yes, I did.

Were you able to see your application status on Nova's webstar? Few days after submitting the secondary, it disappeared.

 

[Plopper]

Lol I still don't see the submitted app on webstar. I actually accidentally started a new one. I don't even see a submitted apps column

 

[RedDevilDDS]

Yes, I did.

Mine disappeared too so that's normal. Don't worry

As long as you received an electronic copy you're fine I think

Thanks guys.

I also submitted 7/30 and I don't show anything on AADSAS. I submitted the secondary and got the email saying it was complete- but it still says in progress on webstar. I guess we shouldn't worry right?

 

[immalozer]

I have no updates for Nova on aadsas. I just received the invite via email.

Yeah, i got the electronic copy but the PDF wouldn't open. Is that a problem?

Mine did not work either. There was a thread. I don't think anyone's secondary pdf worked. It is not needed, unless you wanted it for some reason. The important thing is submitting the website application.

 

[RedDevilDDS]

Mine opened fine... I think the password was your last name or something?

It's nothing special... just pdf of your supp.

I guess we're in the same boat. I was impatient and called Nova regarding my application status. Apparently they're relocating their admissions office and the lady who answered my call got all cranky and stuff.

Thanks! That's good to know.
