[BioGene]

I called on Monday, and they said to just wait for Interview invites. They dont know when invites will be sent or when interviews will begin. Im sorry thats not much help lol, just repeating what they told me.

Hey, do you guys get put on hold for more than 15 minutes? I tried like 3 times already and always on hold till I gave up

Yea, I've been on hold for 18 minutes at the longest before I gave up...I want to check my app. status because I can't log into Webstar! It says my info is invalid 😡 Anyone else have this problem?

 

[seap3]

My webstar is fine.

I was really hoping they'd start invites this week. I'm a little disappointed that they don't know when they will start.

 

[Lukat]

I just called again and after waiting for half an hour, I was able to talk to someone who said she doesn't know when they will give out the interview and ask me to call again early September.

I think for Webstar you have to login into a specific department, if there is an admissions option choose that before logging in. I think the best way is to use the link from the email that NSU originally sent you, hope that helps!

Haha yeah I think the hold is unavoidable 🙁 Though I have noticed calling earlier in the morning reduces wait time.

I just realized that once I tried logging into the wrong webstar and got that error too. Make sure you are logging into the applicants webstar. It's the third link, not the first one on this page:

[drctother]

Hey guys I have a question about the secondary. For list all health care related activities.... did you list with or without a description of the activity? I tried to describe shortly each of my activities but i ran out of room. Was there a format you used for each activity? Im quite lost so any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

 

[drctother]

[crazynate]

Congrats! Did you mail in your signature page?

 

[shaan]

Thanks guys.

for those of you who have gotten interview invites, when were you complete?

I was complete july 8. Shortly after they sent me an email saying they received my LOR.

Congrats! Did you mail in your signature page?

I didn't. I posted about that earlier in the thread, I called admissions up and they said I dont need to send in a signature page cause at the end of the app, it asks for an electronic signature where you just type your name and date, and they said that was just fine. I know a couple people also heard the same thing from admissions. If you're worrying about the page, just call them to see if your complete, their admissions staff is really nice.

 

[seap3]

No invite here. 🙁

I'm hoping it's because I wasn't complete until July 23, not that they don't like me.

Nice. I just wanted to make sure that people were getting the invites without mailing in the signature page, to verify the info were were getting about being complete with the digital signature when we called. I guess you answered that question. 😉 Thanks!

For the people getting invites, what did your webstar look like. Were you one of the people that had the extra drop down box or did you get the preference box that dissappeared? thanks

 

[Kevin Baker]

anyone know if we need biochem for Nova, assuming we have 16 credit hours of chemistry (inorganic 1/2 and organic 1/2) ?

The website says "16 semester hours of Chemistry ( includes inorganic chemistry, organic chemistry and biochemistry)",

You don't need Biochem, but they told me they give preference to those who have both Biochem and Org 2. I had to call because I won't have time to take Org 2 before I graduate, but I will have Biochem. Having only 1 is probably putting me at a disadvantage.

 

[BigBoosting]

I now have Decision: Decision Pending on the app that says Osteo Service Application

Banana!

[gatorfann14]

[seap3]

No change for me either.

I hope you all get your invites tomorrow. 🙂

 

[gasman654]

Yea I had the box that said decision pending for quite some time now.

 

[Lukat]

I have no decision box on my webstar 🙁

did they invite you to their secondary? then you should have a webstar account

 

[gatorfann14]

I clicked the app it's just not a box in either one of my tables

 

[AutumnChild]

I clicked the app it's just not a box in either one of my tables

Nothing for me neither 🙁 I hope it's not because I didn't send in the signature page, I signed it electronically and was told that is fine by admissions. Now i'm getting worried...

 

[BigBoosting]

gator, I wouldn't worry. My husband doesn't have one either. He submitted late July or early August, I can't remember the date. It will probably just change as they start to get to reviewing your app

yes..i submitted it end July..but there is no place where my status can be seen..the admissions application account right?

 

[vmorel1]

Congrats to everyone with interviews! 👍

No status for me either...I turned in the secondary Jul 7th and was complete July 13th.

 

[Lukat]

yeah, the status is in the admission application account. sorry i guess i was confused of your question about not having a webstar account...

 

[gasman654]

[seap3]

So no invites today?

My status just changed to decision pending.

 

[DbDan]

So no invites today?

My status just changed to decision pending.

I called this morning and they still said my decision was pending. Then they asked which was my liberal arts letter, which I told them my Psych letter was. We'll see what happens. Its frustrating that I keep getting conflicting reports if a psych letter will count. It counts as non-science at every school and I haven't taken a liberal arts course in close to 4 years now.... ugh
