Nova Southeastern Univ (NSU-COM) Discussion Thread 2013 - 2014

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Ok so if it's an acceptance, it will be an email (not phone call) and if it's a rejection, it will be nothing? Will the waitlisted receive an email or nothing?

Anastasia said it will be email and mail regardless of decision. Obviously the physical mail arrives days later...
 
Don't think it's happening today, unless they are set to release a flood of emails at 5:00pm.
 
Does anyone know the stats from Nova?

How many applicants get interviews? Whats the accptance rate for ppl interviewed? How many interview dates? When's the last interview date? Etc..

Its been stated numerous times.. but..

600 interviews 400 acceptances 250 class size roughly. Interviews go until spring.
 
Do you know if the acceptances include people off the waitlist or not?
 
It was around 4,000 applicants for 250 seats in 2013.
 
So I received a phone call saying my file was complete and then they sent me an email after that confirming my file being complete which included the secondary I submitted. After reviewing the completed secondary, I noticed that one of the questions was blank and I'm 100% sure I filled it in. Did anyone else have this problem? Like the whole question was blank on the file they emailed me but I know I filled it in!!!

Try opening it in another browser. I had a few problems with Chrome but opening it in firefox it showed everything.

Any idea how many dates are open in October and which ones are full already?
 
trying to submit here but the application is not coming up. "The server is temporarily unable to service your request due to maintenance downtime or capacity problems. Please try again later." Anyone else getting this message?

Edit: It's back up

Nope I tried two different browsers same issue. Any advice?? Should I call them and see if there's any chance I can edit or something. I'm only freaking out because it's one of the most important questions on the secondary...the one about your previous medical experiences :/ I have a ton of significant experiences that they won't even see now
 
So for all those who received ii from NSU, it seems that the typical way of finding out is through the portal. So is the Admissions Application Menu the portal you are referring to or am I looking at the wrong place?

II's are through email.
 
Does anyone know whether or not decisions are only emailed on Fridays?
 
My interview for NSU is set for the end of October but I am going down to interview for lecom bradenton in early October. So far I have found no success in changing my date with NSU in order to make one single trip to florida, which happens to be very far from where I live. Anyone else have this issue? Find any solutions?

What about pushing your lecom interview back?

Stats?
 
I'm not 100% but I don't think NSU does interviews in early October, only mid-late.
 
If anyone with an October interview date would like to trade for September 26th (next Thursday), please PM me with your interview date so we can work something out. Thanks! 🙂

LOVE your username.
 
At FAU which is across the street from NSU and it is raining dogs hopefully Thurs. will be all sunshine.

In the wrong place decided to go to my mom house because she lives 20 mins away from nsu, should have trusted my guts. She is asking me if I brought a comlex review book to study, told her I'm going upstairs and she starts screaming don't get an attitude with me, damn it should of stayed at my dads house, where I usually reside which is about an hour away from NSU.

So we need to check in to the osteopathic college by 8:30 right, reviewing emails and I can't find any information about where we should meet and want to do on interview day.

Yes 8:30 am. Here's the meeting place

Interviews for the College of Osteopathic Medicine are held on the main campus in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, at 3200 South University Drive, Terry Building/First floor, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33328.
 
Does anyone know the nova admissions phone number? I can't find it. Bradenton hasn't received my retake mcat and I want to know if nova has. Thanks!

lolwut

You're not even in medical schools yet, and you already have a COMLEX review book?
 
not happening today

According to last years thread, decisions for this last week and the week before should come out tomorrow or friday, based on alphabetical order of your last name.

During my interview day one of the student ambassadors asked when Nova's DO program was founded. I randomly said 1979-- just looked it up and somehow I was actually right haha.
 
Anyone know ii invite trends for those that were complete in early September?
 
Does anyone know if Nova gives silent rejections regarding receiving an interview or a concrete communication saying no interview will be issued ?
