I just got an interview from TUSPM this week. Is anybody scheduled for a March Interview also? Is March too late? I was told that March is the earliest date they have? I'm a bit worried!

Thanks...

Temple does 2 nights at the doubletree for everyone (pretty positive). They usually stick you with another applicant of the same gender. It's in a good part of Philly and the cookies are amazing 🙂 Only pod school that covers hotel costs - most others give discounts.

JEWmongous I will definitely look out for those cookies🙂 Do you attend TUSPM? Just curious.

Sorry guys, I've been out of town. In the meantime Barry has also invited me for an interview -- sweet. I met a lady from Philly today, and the first word she mentioned about the DoubleTree was "cookie".

Yea I didn't like my interview at Temple but I loved the doubletree hotel, rooftop pool, and chocolate cookies

Hey guys!
I have a Temple interview on the 27th of March as well.
Does anybody know what time we get out of there? and more importantly
if we're all staying at the Doubletree I think dinner and (a) drink is in the cards for us.

 

[templepodnc]

if the interview day is still run the same way it was when I interviewed, which I think it is, your day will probably be done around 2-3pm.

There is usually some dead time around the lunch time hour because you are sitting out in a waiting area while each person goes back to do their interview. Best of luck.

i just got scheduled for a may interview....how many kids are usually in the tour/intv group?

 

[phillypd]

i think i had 5 others with me😀

 

[templepodnc]

how many kids are usually in the tour/intv group?

It varies. I had around 5 in my group last year. This year I have seen groups come through with as little as 2 or 3 and as many as maybe 10. Temple does interviews twice a week so sometimes groups can get small which can be nice because you get more time to ask all the questions you want.

 

[phillypd]

Good luck to all those that i seen as Temple today....when i walked in ya'll were eating lunch and being called into the back for interviews....

 

[wehealwithsteel]

Goodluck to everyone interviewing at Philly...i will be the one u see sleeping in class 😀 ...and if u dont get accepted, sucks a little bit to be u, but be happy for your colleagues haha...just stay calm and u will be fine

[ohpodologia]

[prepodirfan]

yeah ill be there sunday and monday as well. should be a fun time as long as our interviews go well...which im sure we'll be fine!!! good luck and PM me if you have any questions.

 

[binh]

i like how the TUSPM march interview thread has turned into the may interview thread. with that said, anybody gonna be there on May 1st session with me?

and one more thing....maybe i'm making this up but i could've sworn i read somewhere on sdn that TUSPM reimburses interviewees for travel expenses...lemme know if im wrong!

 

[templepodnc]

Temple normally covers your hotel expenses and thats it. Besides the free lunch interview day which you get everywhere.

Goodluck to everyone interviewing next week, and in April and May too! Don't worry, May isn't too late 👍, although it might be on the later side to secure a spot in the dorm. I am not sure about that, but it's something you'll want to look into if you want to live in the dorm.

do most pod students live in the dorms at temple?

 

[MaseratiGT]

do most pod students live in the dorms at temple?

It's mixed. I think the dorms hold something like 170ish students, but they are not all pod students.

Those living off campus are spread all over the city. There are a lot of reasonable, nice places around campus.

During my interview, I was told that the dorms hold about 1/3 of the student body. Most of those students or 1st or 2nd year students, but there are students from all 4 years living in the dorm.
