Did anyone else's clinical volunteering section get cut off in the application pdf they email out? I'm freaking out, I was confident that I had it in but now I'm thinking I may have accidentally cut it out before I submitted. Should I call the admissions office?
 
Anybody got completed after July 18th and also got an II invite?

Can anyone comment on the size/complexity of FLL airport? I'm trying to determine if the interview ends at 3:30, I would be able to make a 5:50 flight?

From what I remember, the last hour of the interview day is a campus tour where they stick you in a Nova shuttle and take you around the campus. It's not mandatory, so a lot of people that had to catch flights could leave at 2:30 instead. FLL is only 15 minutes from school, so you should have more than enough time to get through security and all that.

Do you mean July 18th or June 18th? because I was complete July 8th and I'm still waiting to hear back, super nervous. I think most people that received II's so far were June completes so I'm hoping the next batch will be soon for the early July completes.

I was June complete and didn't get one.
 
Does having relatives that live in Ft. Lauderdale show ties to the area? Is there anyway to email them talking about this?

I don't think you should email them about that. I'd mention it in the interview, but otherwise it could come off as grasping at straws and otherwise unprofessional.

Did anyone receive an that generalized email from NOVA saying to submit your supplemental application in the link they provided after you have already submitted a secondary?

I am currently pre-writing secondary so hopefully they do not change too much.

From last year,
1. "How did you learn about osteopathic medicine?"
2. "List any paid employment not including summer jobs, responsibilities, and hours per week
3. "List and briefly describe your health care related volunteer activities since high school."

What are the word or character limits for each?
 
Does anyone know if Nova offers a student stay for interviews?
 
Does anyone have good contact info for this school? I have emailed 3 different email addresses and also called their main number twice (they just gave me another email address) but still no response! Anyone have any luck contacting this school?

I honestly can't tell if you're being serious...
 
Anyone else having problems with their letters being delivered to Nova through AACOMAS? They've had everything else for over 2 weeks but still no letters. Every other school has them and they were sent out by AACOMAS 2.5 weeks ago.

Nova has to download them. If they were submitted after your initial primary app was downloaded, you need to let them know to download again.

I'm having this problem too. I've had them in since July 12. I called them last week and again today reminding them to download my LORs... and the fact that they don't accept Interfolio makes this process even more annoying.
 
I've been having trouble with them updating my app on their portal with my MCAT. I've contacted them a couple times about it because I keep getting e-mails saying my app is incomplete and they keep not updating it and it's frustrating.
 
Anyone have any idea how long the interviews last? Was thinking of doing my flight out at around 7p/8p that night. Not sure if that's a good idea or bad, but it'd save money!
 
How long did it take everyone to get a completed app phone call/email after submitting the secondary? And anyone have a good email or contact number? or just the number someone posted earlier

I submitted secondary 7/14 and got a call and email on 7/15. If you call the help desk with the number posted earlier they'll forward you to the admissions coordinator.
