University of St. Augustine DPT FALL 2020 Thread (YELLOW CLASS)

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
I heard back last week that I was granted an interview for the Florida Campus! They took exactly a month for a decision from my advisor appointment!

It took 5 weeks from submission to advising appointment (holidays) and only 3 weeks to be granted an interview after advisor submission. (San Marcos)

Does anyone know anything about if they allow you to switch cohorts after acceptance? I got accepted into summer 2020 but am now panicking about a prerequisite I need to finish and want to push my start back to fall 2020.

I have heard through somewhere else on the forum that yes, they can do this. Not sure how reliable that is, but there is hope.

Edit: Oh wait, the person I remember saying they did that was going from Fall to Summer. I feel like Summer to Fall would be harder because it just feels like more people apply for fall.

You can ask them if it’s possible especially since you have a valid reason. Talk to your enrollment advisor ASAP so they can handle it appropriately.

I was one to switch after the fact. I mentioned it before interviewing but the actual conversation happened after my acceptance. They will ask you why you want to change terms but just explain your situation and they’ll tell you what your options are.

It was 4 questions, 1 interviewer and 2 interviewees. The questions were tell me about yourself, what was the hardest class you have taken and what did you do to succeed, a cheating scenario question (what would you do in this situation), and what is professionalism. Overall it was a relaxing environment. The interviewer seemed intimidating but after the we gave our answers we starting talking about random things not related to school and made me feel less nervous. I received the acceptance email and call the other day so I was worried for nothing. Just go into it relaxed and be yourself. Best of luck!

Was accepted elsewhere, so I will be declining my spot for fall at San Marcos.
I hope this helps someone out. :)

Thank you for the information! Did they ask you a question about cheating? I read a few other posts that said they did.

How long after your interview did you receive a response regarding acceptances ?
 
Do you think you can switch from a Flex DPT to an earlier residential program?

There's no point in submitting another application to the new Dallas campus if I already submitted one with first choice San Marcos in January right? Since they said on PTCAS that only one application can be submitted. Thanks!
