I hope so! Non-WICHE, OOS and I havent received any word yet eitherWait a hot sec I think everyone who heard back is WICHE. Non-WICHE people hang in there!
WICHE or non?I’m an alternate!!!
The email didn’t say anything about WICHE or non-resident. However, I am a WICHE state student.WICHE or non?

I got an email!! OOS acceptance!
Congrats!Congratulations!! I just got an email for OOS acceptance too!!
Were you guys WICHE?
The email didn’t say anything about WICHE or non-resident. However, I am a WICHE state student.
My email said:
"you've been offered a non-resident position...........
If you receive funding from your state WICHE program, this non-resident offer will be converted to a WICHE offer"
So I think it is only WICHE states today maybe?
OOS non-wiche haven’t heard back yet. I’m super nervous and afraid it may be a rejection. I applied last year and had received my rejection December 11 so feeling extra nervous that I haven’t heard anything yet.
Just got an interview! IS!
Congrats! I actually liked the MMI format of the interviews and felt they were less stressful than others overallIS interview invite
Really? It seems like last years thread everyone found out before the 13thHistorically it seems like OOS non-WICHE hears back the week after winter break starts so I think it'll be the 16th or 17th!
Definitely see what you’re saying, but if you look at the academic calendars for those years you see the same pattern with respect to winter break dates! http://oregonstate.edu/registrar/pdf/osu-5-year-calendar-summer-first-2019-2020.pdf
So if I haven’t heard anything should I assume I was rejected? They haven’t said a peep to me
Ugh thank you my heart sinks every time I see theseI don't think so. So far some instate and WICHE students have heard but no one else
IS?Interview invite this morning!
Yes, OSU doesn’t do interviews for OOS.
I’ve applied to too many schools and am losing my mind...Yes, OSU doesn’t do interviews for OOS.

The vet I volunteer for thinks I’m crazy 😛 I have alllll the spreadsheets to keep track of everything. I’m glad I applied so widely though -every school seems to have a completely different opinion on meGlad I’m not the only psycho!

For non-WICHE OOS people, I wouldn't be surprised if you hear today. I have no insider info so I don't want to get your hopes up or anything. But it is the last day before Winter break for us. I don't know what the admission's committees plans are for next week or anything though and I also don't know when OOS people have heard historically (but for some reason I remember it being before I was notified about an interview?). Good luck!
AFAIK, MMIs were specifically designed to be a way to evaluate candidates in a way that it considered more fair. Thus, everyone gets the same questions. Beyond that I can’t talk about the specific questions as I signed something I saying I wouldn’t.For the MMI interview do you get asked questions from your own personal experiences or are they generic questions that everyone that day interviewing has to answer? Just wondering how I should prepare for it.
Pretty sure this is the book I readFor the MMI interview do you get asked questions from your own personal experiences or are they generic questions that everyone that day interviewing has to answer? Just wondering how I should prepare for it.
I was talking with someone on the admissions committee yesterday. I can't remember the exact number, but around 70 IS got interview invites this year.Pretty sure this is the book I read
Although the examples it gives are more applicable to med school, I feel like it was useful in prepping and understanding what kind of questions they may ask.![]()
Multiple Mini Interview (MMI)
The Multiple Mini Interview (MMI) has become the preferred interview format at many health professions programs and medical schools. Applicants seeking admission to these schools face considerable anxiety preparing for these interviews because of a lack of resources available for guidance. Our...books.google.com
Additionally, if you get an interview as in IS student, there is a very high likelihood of acceptance. I would have to go back and look at the thread from my year, but there are 40 in state slots and they def didn't interview more than 60 people (and it was prob more like 50).
Hm that's weird. I just went back and looked and was told 55 applicants for 40 slots for my year. I have no idea how they would fit in 70 interviews in one day.I was talking with someone on the admissions committee yesterday. I can't remember the exact number, but around 70 IS got interview invites this year.
