Hey guys! I was shocked, but I opened up my email and received an email from NSUCOM! Now, they have 2/15 and 2/20 available for me. It will be my 1st interview (1st invite anyways). I will probably go for the 2/15 interview (earlier=better right?).

Any suggestions you guys/gals may have? Especially the setting/interview, and the interview questions they asked you??

Thanks so much!! Im excited!!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!

NSU-COM is truly awesome; I can't say enough about it (and I'm not even accepted yet😛 )

I interviewed yesterday and it was far LESS stressful than I anticipated from reading the SDN Med School Interview Feedback. Nevertheless, those feedbacks helped to motivate me to go as prepared as possible, e,g. I read Gevitz "The D.Os.s"-NSU-COM is seriously committed to its osteopathic identity.

Also, be sure that before you go, your application file is complete. The Adcom will meet within 1-2 weeks of your interview but if your file is not complete a decision will be delayed until it is.

Congrats again. 👍

Would you or anyone else recommend doing the interview on the 15th ... or would it not matter if i did it on the 20th? Just wondering, sorry. My composite letter and DO LOR should be in by Feb. for sure.

Also, is Geviz "The D.Os.s" found in libraries? Is that even the proper spelling of the title? Sorry, I hadnt heard of the book 'till you just mentioned it.

Thanks!!

It doesn't really matter. I would prefer to do it at the beginning or end of the week because you don't have to take as much time off of school or work.

hey i just realized we have the same exact test scores/gpa...did you go to grad school?
 
Hey congratulations on the interview invite! yeah make sure you are complete, I got my decision about a week after the interview.

Check out the SDN interview feedback and the nova website.

Again Congratulations!!!
 
Dr.Inviz congrats! How long have they had your secondary, etc...

I received my secondary application from NSUCOM on November 16th. I completed it on the 20th.

So its been a little over a week!

LisaMD, have you interviewed yet? When did you complete your secondary?
 
CONGRATULATIONS!!!:luck:

Thanks! It's only the 1st step though ... hopefully I do well on the interview and then I can get that official acceptance letter!!

Its "The DOs: Osteopathic Medicine in America" (2nd edition) by Norman Gevitz. I ordered it through Barnes & Noble.

NSU-COM says that it'll be interviewing through May so I don't think that 2/15 or 2/20 will make a big difference. However, all things being equal, I think, the sooner the better.

Congrats again. :clap:

AHHHHHHHHHHHH omg I thought you were interviewing on the 4th..lo siento..how was it? How did you do? Tell me everything. I know you did well and I hope you get a good call in 2 weeks...

fingers crossed for you😍

LisaMD, have you interviewed yet? When did you complete your secondary?

Hey same day I was complete..did you send your letters in yet? Congrats on the invite...
 
I also just received my interview invite. I will be interviewing on 2/20 unless they can take me in the next 2 weeks since I will be on vacation in Miami Beach.

My DO physician sent out her letter to them on the 24th I believe. They either just now may be receiving it or will be receiving it quite soon. They did receive my Signature page (received that message late lastnite via email). My composite letter (THANK GOD!) was sent out yesterday according to my premed advisor (I HOPE!) ... thus, by the time I interview, i do think they should have all my letters in so that they may make their decisions ASAP about whether or not I'm a good fit (or even good enough) for them! I hope I am!!

have you received an interview invite yet exigente chica? If so, do it on 2/15 🙂. It'd be good to see some Sdners there on my day!

I've been complete for a few weeks I think 👎
 
They seem to have a couple of priority groups... or they are just random. I got my invite only about 8 hours after being complete. And I know a few people got theirs a couple weeks after being complete. Im sure others had to wait a month or more.

yeah, I do recall you being done even before I got my secondaries. I'm surprised I got the invite and you havent yet. Oh well, atleast you have one acceptance thus far in DCOM ... I'm working on my shot at an acceptance .. or 2 .. or 3 .. or all, i hope :laugh:

I wonder what the priority is based on ... cuzz I surely didnt expect to get that invite after 7-8 days of being complete. However, NSUCOM has been VERY kind to me in terms of sending me the secondary as soon as my AACOMAS was processed, and now the interview invite ... hopefully this is the 1st of many good things to come my way from NSUCOM!😎

Hi EC,
Thanks...I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you too. :luck:
I think I did well. Interview was far less stressful than I thought it was going to be and I think that everyone else in my group (with maybe the exception of one person) felt at ease. I reviewed the whole day on the med school interview feedback; a lot of other people have done the same and it is a good resource to get a diverse perspective (albeit an overwhelmingly positive one) on NSU-COM.
The Adcom was supposed to have met this morning and hopefully all the files were reviewed (and the applicants accepted😉 ) and by the end of the week the decisions will be confirmed by the Dean.
Now its just a matter of waiting (easier said than done😛 ).
Don't give up and let them know just how much you want to go there.🙂
 
I also just received my interview invite. I will be interviewing on 2/20 unless they can take me in the next 2 weeks since I will be on vacation in Miami Beach.

In my group there were 8 applicants because 2 didn't show up (undisclosed reasons).
It may be worth your while to contact them and let them know that you'll be in South Florida and would be happy to fill in, in the event one of the scheduled applicants cancels.
:luck:
 
i've been complete at nsu for a little while now and i still haven't heard back. how long did it take you guys to get an interview invite?
 
Received an interview invite on the 8th day after having received my secondary.


one thing does suck though, they appear to be filled in their interview slots thru the 2nd week of February. I got the best avail date of 2/15 (it was that or 2/20) .. so yeah, i dunno, but i am excited!!

good luck to you!
 
thanks for the info!
hope the interview goes well for you 🙂
 
So I tried calling them and when I asked if I could check on the status of my application I got tranferred to a voicemail saying among other things that status cannot be checked over the phone.

??

Does anyone have a better direct number to call? I think an operator just transferred me there 👎
 
Boo I called again and finally got someone and they said my file hasn't even been reviewed yet!!!

When I went to the interview they told me to contact Linda Ferris.

Linda Ferris - 954-262-1139 - Secretary

Try that number, you should be able to check the status of your application.

http://www.nova.edu/cwis/hpdasa/staff.html

That link is the email address and numbers of the Osteopathic Admissions at NSU from the nova website.

It's all HemaOncoDoc's fault! Pretty soon, these same people will be mooning over UNECOM! Then NSU! Then UNE! Then they won't know where they want to go!
 
🙄 Oh yes, completely my fault. Maybe they should pay me for all this publicity. Oh no...I just paid them. 😡

And I hope I didn't actually make you mad, I was just kidding around.

Not until I have a second look at schools. I'm just "mad" that I had to pay deposits and I'm giving them plugs. 😛 🙂 No worries man, we're cool.

Yes, the sig page must be sent via snail mail. It took them 2-3 days to receive it .. and I sent it over thanksgiving break.

Good luck on receiving that interview invite!! I hope you are able to interview on the day I will! 😎
