For those who are interviewing at NOVA on 9/14: I received the interview confirmation email...and it says "11:45 am". Are we all scheduled to arrive at 11:45 (or sooner)? If so, how early is everyone ACTUALLY arriving.

I don't want to get there before 11 and be twiddling my thumbsies 👍👎thumbup:👎 .

Mine is 9/14 also at 11:45. I probably will arrive at 11:15 ish.
 
When I called Nova to schedule an interview, they only gave me the choices of 10/5, 10/6, and 10/7. So I'm going 10/7. Is anyone else on here interviewing then too? I'm so excited!!
 
My friend got an interview at UAB for august 24th. Just a heads up- they've handed out interviews. I don't know her stats, but she had a 19AA and was in one of the later mailing dates

What the heck....I didn't even get contacted by an admission officer to send in my supplemental. T_T How late was her mailing date? Like late July?
 
Got an interview at LECOM

Any news from ASDOH, Western, Meharry?

I scheduled it yesterday afternoon (8/2), but have not gotten a confirmation email yet (8/3). Does anyone know how long until you get one?

Hey; when did you get the confirmation email from them saying that they had received all your documents? I'm just wondering when to expect an interview invite (if at all 🙁)

I got an email on July 22 that said my secondary application had been processed
 
Oregon just emailed: busy processing the current incoming class and they will start talking to us mid September. Nice to hear from them regardless.
 
In the email I got from Louisville about having processed my supp. fee it said: "Please allow a minimum of 15 business days for processing your materials in our office. Changes in application status should appear on the AADSAS website within 15 business days. Check the AADSAS website weekly for updates regarding your application status. "

Are they referring to the "School Decisions" part of the application will be updated?
 
Aww I am so jealous. I haven't heard from Louisville yet but its still pretty early. That is awesome that you guys have interview invites. Congratulations!!!

Got an interview at Louisville on 08/29!

If you guys don't mind me asking...when did you get the "application complete" e-mail?
 
My last email from Louisville was July 14 which said that my application is complete and that the next contact will be regards to interviews, pretty much.
 
Thanks guys. Every rejection stings but I'm going to stay positive. Rejection was via email and I'm a OOS applicant (6/27 mailing date).
 
Nova interview 9/22
I scheduled it yesterday afternoon (8/2), but have not gotten a confirmation email yet (8/3). Does anyone know how long until you get one?

They told me 24-48 hours. I still haven't gotten one either.
 
Just got my 2nd invite, NOVA! I am a FL resident 23AA/21TS/19PAT 3.67oGPA/3.45sGPA. Scheduled for Thursday 9/15 anyone else have this date? Hoping to hear back from Case, Louisville and LECOM soon. Does anyone have the link to the LECOM portal? Also has anyone got a secondary from UF yet?

The username, password and the link for LECOM portal is provided in the first email you received. The one that states they received your AADSAS application. Congrats on the interview! I hope I hear good news from Nova!
 
for those who have heard from louisville - did they tell you what date your interview was or did they give you a couple of dates to choose from? lecom just assigned me to a specific date and i'm hoping other schools will at least give me some options.
 
tion was via email and I'm a OOS applicant (6/27 mailing date).[/QUOTE]

UNLV rejection today. 2nd rejection of the cycle.
What...they are rejecting people before interview invitations!?
They prefer in-state anyway, keep up!

Thanks guys. Every rejection stings but I'm going to stay positive. Rejection was via email and I'm a OOS applicant (6/27 mailing date).
At least they don't keep us waiting for a year before hearing anything else from.... (like some schools, that's not good for future planning)

Case seems to be very quiet this week... Also, for LECOM portal, I always just google LECOM (sorry if this is not a direct link)
 
Nova rejection today via snail mail :/ ...I should be sad but I'm not :/

I got this too. I am pretty sure its just a default message to those who have a completed application. I don't see how this could be a precursor to a rejection. 👍

Does anyone know the answer to this? I have had a couple similar responces that say pay attention to the "Status" section in AADSAS but I know no clue what section this is.

Thanks in advance 👍

Same for both.
Your fine, I think its an automated message. I doubt they have time to ease people into rejections :thumbsup:
 
Nova interview! mid-October

Very grateful.

(late July mail date. 2ndary sub'd last week)
 
NYU's interview's here today 8/5. We need to call within one week from the e-mail received date to schedule the interview. I haven't call yet, but I am surprised. 7/18 mailing batch.
Applied last year with NYU, didn't get an interview, got a rejection letter in June this year.

BTW their application complete e-mail arrived on 7/20 and says that interviews will be from mid-Sept to March 🙂
 
You got a rejection letter in June '11 for Class of '15 admission? Crazy.
I didn't get an invite to NYU either, it seems...
