Just heard back and got accepted! Anybody else?
 
Does that mean in-state? If so, yes I am! I go to OSU and I'm from Oklahoma City.
Thats awesome! I also go to OSU and I just received the rejection email, but I was accepted into Boston University dental school, so I'm excited anyway.

Oh man, well I'm disappointed to hear that.. I think we had the same interview date, I remember you. Best of luck in Boston, would've been fun to have been in the same class though!

Sure! My DAT score is nothing extraordinary so it shows that anybody can achieve their dreams as long as they really want it and can compensate by excelling in other parts of their application.

I also brought some sketches/drawings to the interview that I had made throughout my lifetime, which seemed to really impress them and I felt like my interview went pretty great.

Got Accepted but will most likely turn it down because I got in IS school!
Good luck to everyone! I loved OU 😍
 
I got accepted into 4 schools and after much deliberation, I have decided on OU! Can't wait to meet the rest of my classmates!

I'm OOS from Utah. I'm an Economics major, which is something my interviewers seemed to like. I also served a 2 year service mission for my church. 120 hours of shadowing, worked 2 jobs through school totaling to 40+ hours a week while being a full-time student.
