I applied to the St. Augustine campus. I missed the call because I was at work and the next available appointment was at the end of February. I tried emailing the advisor but haven’t heard back.

 

[TheDancingWriter]

I was already accepted in December for fall.

When was your advising phone appointment? and how long did it take them to email you that you were granted an interview?

 

[TheDancingWriter]

When was your advising phone appointment? and how long did it take them to email you that you were granted an interview?

For me, it took less than two weeks after the advising appointment.

[dtrmnd1]

I applied to the Austin campus (Fall cohort). They extended the application deadline to the 15th, so they emailed to be patient with advising as they're focusing on the spring/summer cohorts first.

I have just about the same stats but with a 289 combined.. The advisor who called advised me to retake my GRE for a higher score or else I won't get offered an interview
Did your advisor tell u the same?

 

[S.O.F]

She didn't say that i wouldn't get in. She said it was a little low, but that was it.

How many observation hours did you have??

[rmalani]

For the interview notification.. Do they email you or call you? And have they also been sending out rejections as well? Like, whether or not you aren’t qualified for an interview

I got both an email and a call within minutes of each other. I have no idea if they sent out any rejections. But I was told they are interviewing 1/14, 2/11, 3/10, 4/07 for residential. Susan actually let me choose one of those four dates to interview.

Do you mind sharing your stats? Also which campus and term(spring,summer,fall) is easiest to get into, and does early decision help?

Hi!
Did they call you, or did you need to submit a time for the advising appointment? I submitted my application at the end of November... still waiting to hear back. When I emailed admissions they told me to wait to hear from an advisor, but I'm a little unclear about whether I need to reach out to schedule that or if they'll let me know?

I received a call randomly but I was at work and couldn’t take it. She emailed me immediately after leaving a voicemail saying I needed to reschedule the appointment but the first one available was at the end of February.

An advisor reaches out n sent me an email to set up an appt. then They called me.

My app was submitted Dec 18th by Zala, and I still haven’t heard back yet.. should I be concerned and call them or do they usually take a month to get back to you?

 

[Member 415]

I think you should definitely contact them. My friend submitted his application much after you did and he received a call to schedule for an phone interview with Zala last week, I believe. But it can also be like other people said, they are still focusing on Spring/Summer cohort

Finally submitted my application couple days ago for San Marcos, so hopefully I hear back in a couple of weeks.

When I got my invite to interview, she said 2-4weeks after submitting it. I think you should hear back soon unless she suggests you redo/retake something?

Spring cohort just started this Monday so that could be the possible delay?

 

[prospective_dpt]

I interviewed for fall yesterday at San Marcos. Very casual interview 2 applicants:1 faculty.

I was wondering how long after your interview y'all who have been accepted heard back? Thanks!

What is your stats? I see that you are on the SMU thread too

And do you remember what interview questions were asked? If you don’t mind sharing.

 

[southernbrooklynbridge]

So I missed my phone call from my enrollment advisor on December 30th and in the voicemail she said she would call back after the holiday. She never did and I couldn’t call her back because there wasn’t a call back number. But, I got an email on Monday saying my application was under review. I’m a little uncertain because in her voicemail she said that the phone call was required before the application could be submitted for review. Any insight or advice??

 

[Violet2020]

I submitted my application for San Marcos this week with what I thought was Austin, Texas as a 2nd choice. Now I am looking at their website and it says something about Fall 2020 in Dallas not accepting students?

Has anybody applied to and heard back from the Miami campus about interviews yet? I applied on 11/29 and had my advisor appointment on 12/17. I'm hoping to hear something soon.

I applied in August, but my advisor held it until my fall grades were released. It was sent to the review committee and I was told I would have an answer within 4-6 weeks, so for me it would be around 2/17. Was your application forwarded to the committee already or are they holding it?

Yes, my application was forwarded for review on 1/2. Hopefully I get an answer by 2/13
