URI Interview

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
I've talked with current URI students as well as the admissions director and they've said on the day of your interview, you are given a tour of the facility, talk with current students and have a one-on-one interview with one of the professors. I've heard the interview is pretty relaxed. Hope this helps 🙂
 
Has anyone received a confirmation email for the interview? I got my day and time all set up but thought an email was going to be sent with where to go, how to get there, etc.
 
Last year there was sent the day after I scheduled my interview. Not sure about this year, though. I am under the impression that URI is still finalizing interview slots and then they will send them all out at once, but I could be completely wrong. If anyone still needs directions on how to get there, I can dig through my emails to put it here.
 
Thank you Megand92! that is very helpful! I also have an interview with URI but on January 3rd. I have also not received a confirmation other than the one you receive once you make your appointment. But if I do get one I will let you know! 🙂 Congrats on your interview!
 
Gidget113, you got an email after making your appointment?
 
When I scheduled mine I never got an email or anything
 
I received an email confirming my interview today, just in case people were still wondering
 
I got a confirmation email this morning as well! Eek, so excited!

What did everyone think of the program after the interviews?

I was surprised at how much I really liked the program. To be honest, I went into the interview not knowing too much about URI at all but I was really impressed with the facilities and the staff. Everyone there seemed super cool and the building that houses the PT department was certainly small, but still impressive. Definitely one of the better programs I've seen
 
I was very impressed (but feel like I didn't do too well in the interview). The faculty was excellent, as were the facilities. I can only hope I get in!
 
I really enjoyed my time there and I hope I get in! I really liked how the student-faculty dynamic was, it made it seem like a pretty laid back yet professional atmosphere. I also liked how close all the students seemed to be to each other. If I am lucky enough to get in I'll probably end up attending.
 
I was really impressed by the program even though of the snow problems. The faculty made me feel at home and were mad chill. I am hoping that we all get in there so best of luck everyone. Keep us updated if anyone gets in or hears anything. 🙂
 
I'm getting very impatient waiting to hear from them! Has anyone been contacted?
 
I was just notified via phone call yesterday!! They said at the interview they would be giving offers initially by phone call but then you'll receive a formal acceptance.

I know, it's a very nerve wrecking process. Just try and stay optimistic! It's still early. It hasn't even been a week since they finished interviewing 🙂.
 
I just had an online interview today. Had two 20-30 minute interviews with two different faculty members, then I spoke with a current student there. I was a bit nervous since it was my first interview of the application cycle, but I think it went well overall, besides the hiccups from the slow internet.

I was informed that by next Monday, people will hear either good news or bad news. Good news if you are accepted in the first wave, bad news if you were declined. If you hear nothing at all, you would probably be on the waiting list, and every two weeks it would perhaps be your turn to be notified of acceptance.

Congrats. Did anyone else hear from back URI for acceptance? thank you and greatly appreciated.
 
Just got a call today, I'm in! I'll be accepting the offer as soon as I get the official letters and stuff. I'm wicked pumped!

Congrats. Just waiting anxiously to see if I get in and I wish I get in here because it was one of my top choices. 😛
 
Congratulations on your acceptance! I didn't know they were notifying people today. I was under the impression that all notices were sent out yesterday. Time to get my hopes up and wait for an hour or two to see what happens.
 
Interviewed yesterday and found out today I got in! Great program....not sure if I'll attend or not but URI definitely moved towards the top of my list after learning more about the program.

Congrats! Did they happen to mention how far along they are in their acceptances? 🙂

They didn't give me any information that already hasn't been posted here. All they said was that an official acceptance email and physical letter were to follow

I am gonna call Monday to see what is going on so I know what is happening. Good luck to everyone and congrats to those that got in. 😛
 
Congrats to everyone who has gotten acceptances so far! I am still waiting to hear back....I'm trying to take comfort in knowing although I haven't heard a yes yet, I haven't heard no either!

Anyone accepted but declined?
 
I have not. I'm assuming those that haven't heard that they are accepted or rejected are put on the wait list. Ahhh the waiting game continues.
 
I emailed them last week and they said that they will still be sending out notices this week and next week..
 
I recently called as well and they told me the same thing, that they are waiting to hear back from their initial offers and will send out the rejections and let you know if you are on the waitlsit. They told me that I was on the waitlist....at least it wasnt a rejection....
 
Yeah I got a rejection this morning too
🙁 kind of figured that's what it was going to be though
 
Sorry to hear that 🙁. I still haven't heard back. Did they send you a letter via snail mail or email?
 
I got a rejection this morning via email =/ Oh well, it just wasn't meant to be I guess.
