I got that email a couple days ago from Temple saying they were continuing to review my application. I just received an interview invite, so I’m not sure what that means for everyone here! Good luck!

Congrats! When did you submit?

Thanks! My application was submitted in June but wasn't completed until the end of August (with my official DAT scores and my last recommendation letter). But if you submitted yours earlier I wouldn't stress too much. It seems like they are reviewing the applications at different rates. Good luck!

I have no idea if they even invite international students now or not... it is getting hard to remain patient :)

I thought temple just required the casper test not snapshot?
I’m almost positive they do require the snapshot. It’s an easy 3 video question response and takes no longer than 10 minutes.
 
Can I PM someone who already interviewed this cycle at Temple? I have an interview coming up and wanted an idea of what to expect :)

For someone who's already had the open house, how long was it?
 
I feel like I did not show what I'm capable of enough during the interview. So, should I write a LOI right after the interview?

In my opinion I think that it is too early to send a LOI

I interviewed and at the end they said to wait for an email for the open house invite, but I haven't received one yet. Has anyone received an email with a link to the open house after interviewing?/ How soon before the open house did you receive it?

I interviewed last Wednesday and they told me the same, I have yet to get any instruction either.

Hey guys!! I just received an interview invite to Temple l! Would appreciate if there is someone I can talk to and receive insight on how the interview has went? Also what is the preferred way to sign the documents? Is it okay to sign them on my computer (electronic signature) or I have to do it the traditional way (printing, signing, then scanning)?

What are your stats if you don't mind sharing?

I felt it was pretty relaxed, normal interview questions, look at the sdn interview reviews page and pretty much all of the questions I got were there. That being said I have no idea how well I did lmao.
For documents I printed and signed but idk if that is the only way.
 
Is anyone else freaking out because they haven’t heard back? I submitted in early July and received an email 2 weeks ago saying it was under review but so far nothing.

Once given an interview, are applicants considered based on CASPER AND INTERVIEW. Or do they take into account GPA and DAT too

I don't think anyone knows that other then the admissions committee
 
Oof when you mess up on time zones for the open house lmfao. I had a midterm anyways but I still feel a little clowny sitting here dressed up for an open house that ended an hour ago. At least I didn't do this for the interview!
I know there are other dates but for those that went did anything interesting happen there?
 
does anyone else know if temple's interview is open book? (meaning do they have our application in front of them)
 
Has temple finished giving out all it’s Pre December interviews

I am not entirely sure if it was open/closed file but they did ask me very generic questions and one ethical question (like MMI). I suggest going through SDN interview questions for Temple because it really helped me a lot. I was really nervous plus the time difference so I was really sleepy and tired but the interviewer was very nice, so I wouldn't be worried about it so much. You got this!

Does everyone have to complete the Casper snapshot or is it only once you have received an interview?

Both Casper and Casper snapshot are only required once you receive an interview I believe.
