*** The Official Nova Class of 2019 Interview/Acceptance Thread ***

I'm interviewing this Thursday as well, at 11:45 a.m. I don't know much about the area though--I'm staying with a student who goes to the school.
You might try searching the student facebook groups and asking if anyone is willing to "host" you (pick you up from the airport, let you stay with them, etc.) The groups are called "Nova Southeastern College of Dental Medicine Class of . . . . 2015, 2016, 2017, or 2018"
It's worth a shot.

I have my interview next Thur. How was it?!
 
Interview on 9/24 anyone? PM if you want to meet up or something.
 
I got invited for an interview here yesterday! Everything moved very fast because my application was only completed the day prior...I'll be interviewing in September, it's my first invite and I'm pumped.
Do you know when in Sep? I'll be interview this Thur (Sep 11th); let me know if yours is the same day!

Mine is actually the next Thursday! It's my first one, so I'm a little nervous, but more excited than anything. Good luck with your interview!!
 
Anyone with interview on 10/3? PM me if you want to share a hotel room and split the cost!
 
Hi! I want to provide some optimism to anyone that currently has a post-december interview!! Keep checking the Nova portal. I initially had a post-december interview, but continued to check the portal every day and now have an interview in October. Any interview invitation is a great one, but if you have your heart set on interviewing before December then keep checking because it is possible!!

I hope more pre-dec dates open up! I just received an interview invite and had to schedule the date in Jan b/c nothing else was available before then.

I think they will! Just keep checking and you might get lucky!
 
This might be a silly question, but how do I check the portal for dates? Is it the same link as the one where we sign up for an interview date?
 
I initially had post-dec interview scheduled in January, but was able to reschedule it to an october date. If you go in to the appointment confirmation email, there should be a link where you can reschedule/cancel your appointment. Good luck!

When you go to the link it states that you have to cancel your appointment first. So if there aren't earlier dates available to switch to can you get your original date back? Don't want to end up with an even later date!

I didn't do it that way. I was scared of losing my date. I used the link they sent in the initial interview e-mail with the calendar to change my date. I saw an open date and grabbed it. Then I immediately called the number on the interview page and requested to cancel my post december date. I got two confirmation e-mails: one confirming my new date and one canceling my old one.
 
If you don't cancel your new one and you're scheduled for two dates, I think they cancel all but your original date. So make sure if you do it the way I did that you call them and explain your situation.

Thanks for the help! And good luck!

Does Nova interview include a writing exercise (writing essays)???
 
Thank you for your reply! Can you tell me how long was your interview?

I believe I got there at about 1130am and left at 4pm. Lunch was included. You get to leave right after your interview and I was one of the last people out of a group of about 10, so technically you could be done a lot sooner.

Wow, sounds like you had a good time with your interview!!! Good luck to you!

I wonder is it a group interview or one-to-one?
 
It is one-on-one with one of the faculty members!
 
I missed a phone call (someone left a VM) from Nova today but supposedly it was just a confirmation call that my application has been forward to to be reviewed. Is this something everyone receives? And if so, how soon after this call did you hear back?

*I keep getting emails and calls from schools and I get a mini heart attack...but they're all just confirmations that they received my application!* >.<

Hey,

Yeah, they call to let you know that your application is complete and is sent for a review. As for when I got my interview, it was the day after I received a call stating my application was complete. They move and make decisions really quickly. You should be hearing back pretty soon.

Good luck 🙂
 
My interview date is Oct 10! If anyone has this date message me!!

At an interview for my state school yesterday one of the girls had it tucked away in the admissions office and wheeled it out after her handshake haha, it brought a smile to my face for sure!

so yes!
 
Hey! Is it fine if you bring a spouse or family member to tour the school with you during your interview? Obviously not actually IN the interview lol

A friend and I both had the week of February 18th and we both got pre-Dec interviews less than two days after! Don't lose hope, check several times a day!
 
Hi everyone, what's the chance of getting accepted if your OOS?

I'm waiting for the winter storms to come... I can assume that some flights will cancel in November because of flight cancellations.
 
Hi does anyone with an interview date on October 31 want to switch for a date on October 29th?
