Just got an acceptance to the U of M today. Anyone else?

Congratulations on your acceptance!

 

[OTforMe]

Thanks. I probably won't be going there because they say they may have 7.5% tuition increases. yikes! That means with housing it could cost around 80-90K

You applied to Concordia as well right? Kathy left me a message today saying that we could heard before May 1st but at least by that day. Wish it was much sooner. I was invited to interview at Creighton and hoped I'd have more news before booking a costly flight. 🙁

 

[OTforMe]

I did, but I'm not much for small towns, so it was my last pick. Creighton is a great school! They only offer OTDs though, right?

Did you interview at U of M? My husband applied there but we haven't heard anything since they received the application package...

 

[OTforMe]

Nope, they don't require interviews. I got an email asking which campus I wanted to go to. They said the letters should be out in the next couple of weeks.

 

[toyslp]

Wow, thanks for the quick reply. Now I'm so nervous!! I wonder if they'll tell him if he calls...

I still haven't heard anything from Minnesota. Am I the only one? Their priority deadline response date is Friday!

I was getting worried as well but just received an email that said I was waitlisted. Although, this was not what I wanted, I am still very happy that I still have a chance at getting in. Good luck!

I received my acceptance last Tuesday afternoon and had until April 20th to accept (which I did). Hopefully a few more spots will open up for those who are waitlisted on the 20th! Good luck!

Has anyone heard from the U of Minnesota yet? I know online it says that all admissions will be sent out by March 15, and didn't know if anyone had already received something!

 

[LaraRemi]

I haven't heard anything either

I received an email on Tuesday from the University of Minnesota with a rejection. Luckily I had already sent in an acceptance to another school that was my top choice a few weeks before. Best of luck to you and I hope you hear back soon!

I think offer communication begins today (by the way they phrase it online it sounds like not necessarily everyone will hear on the same day). I'm not sure how quickly everyone will find out, but hopefully soon! Good luck to everyone!!

Has anyone heard back yet from the U of M? I'm getting antsy now that I know they're sending out acceptances/denials! Also, how did you find out? Email, mail?

 

[OTorBust16]

I received my rejection email this afternoon. Which is quite alright since I've been accepted elsewhere. Good luck!!

 

[NewtoOT]

I was accepted on Friday (March 15th) but will be denying my acceptance, so there is another spot for someone on the wait list!

Anyone else think it's pretty ****ty that after spending over $100 on the OTCAS application, ordering all of your transcripts, and getting everything else together, the U of M can't even send a hard copy of your rejection letter in the mail? Maybe I'm just old-fashioned...

 

[OTdreamer]

Does anyone know of someone who is currently or has been in the U of M OT program? I am curious to hear how they liked/disliked the hybrid curriculum. The U of M is my last resort to getting in, but I'm not thrilled by the 70/30 situation. But I don't think I could turn it down at the same time, if I get in. Any insight?

I hear you! That frustrated me a little bit too. Sorry to hear the same thing happened to you.

 

[HopeToBeAnOT]

I just received an acceptance from here today but I declined because I got into my top choice school 🙂 Hope someone else gets my spot!

 

[schmol]

Haven't heard anything either...assuming I didn't get in.
