U Minnesota Interview

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Did anyone get invited for the interview in Oct?




Hi,
Have you been invited for an interview at UMinnesota ? If so when is the interview ? Did they send an e-mail or a postal mail ? Could you kindly post your stats so that others can have an idea regarding their chances ?
Wish you all the very best for your interview...
Regards....
 
They called saying that letter has been mailed for interview on Oct 24. My stats 93/3.5/108. If anyone else is going, or anyone living in Minneapolis, do you know which motel/hotel would be cheap to stay in for 1 night and is well connected to the university by public transport? dont have any idea about Minneapolis 🙁
 
can u tell when did u apply? all the best to u.

Hi nicky009,
In my opinion u a have a good overall stat..i know tht it is a norm tht a score above 90 will have better chances...but as far as my knowledge from the previous posts where candidates have been selected with scores below 90 too....and thts bcoz schools do not jus look at the part 1 scores only...but the overall personality of a candidate....I m sure there must be something exceptional in u and try to focus tht on ur personal statement and resume..Apply to as many schools as possible u can so tht u dont feel u missed tht chance....all the best
hope this helps buddy

Minnesota has 6 seats last year. I am not sure abt this year.Minnesota has rolling admissions. so, better to apply as early as u can. Hope this helps.
 
Hi everyone.....

I am new here and confused about my stats...I read all the posted stats and I was wondering where I stand...

If someone can help me I will really appreciate the help.
My stats : nb 1 - 87
nb 2 - 76
ece - 4.0
toefl - (cbt) 263..
I have 1 year of experience in India and 4 months in US are a volunteer., I also received a gold medal in India.

I have send applications to llu, uop, bu, upenn

do I stand any chance to be called for interviews?

Please help me..... I will appreciate all the help.....I am totally frustated as to what to do...
 
Thanks vitadent and net, I appreciate your reply, do you think its wise to spend 65$ now, they just have 6 seats, I must be already late if it has rolling admissions. Please give wise suggestions, I dont know how I missed this university
 
it is ok. they just started their pass program this April or May. so lots of ppl don't know about it yet. they may increase the seat number to somewhere around 10, but not sure. you still have good chance to apply for it. $65 is not that bad compared to other schools having over $100 application fee.
 
hi friends ,
i have a doubt abt minnesota application ,can i send in my copy of nbde original score report coz minnesota does not ask for official reports to be sent by the boards?
also my ece report has been opened can i send that or are they particular abt sending a sealed report.
anybody whose applied to minnesota if you could pls clear my doubts would be very grateful
thanks👍

Hi,

You CAN and SHOULD send only a copy of your NBDE , ECE and TOEFL scores to them...but make sure they are notarized copies with original notary seal.... infact they have mentioned that if our scores are sent directly from NBDE or ECE or TOEFL they will not accept ....

so just send them original notarized copies of all your score reports...this works out to be easy, cheap and convinient...

Hope this is of some help to you
👍 ... Good Luck

Hi Small Wonder,
How are you doing? Congratulations for your uni of Minnesota interview.How was your calif interview? Have you heard from upen yet? Cause they already have send couple of acceptances ,although they told us that they will send the ist acceptances in November.May be they are sending the acceptances to the reapplicants this month,as many of them are reapplicants so far i know.Feeling very tense.Good luck.
 
Do they sponser visa to the selected students. Thanks.
 
yes, f1 visa for full time students
 
I got into U of M last year. Last year they had 6 positions. This year I believe there are 10 positions. The interview process is just like U Penn. No clinical stuff. Just personal questions. So be yourself.
The program is very good. They have summer course of 2 mths or so. Then in the fall they integrate you with the regular D-3 batch. It is busy right now. But my experience has been very good. The faculty is very nice and approachable. The other students are also extremely helpful. Dr. Berthold... the Program Director is awesome. He really is an excellent mentor.
Best of luck,
Treasure
