Mine starts with an I and I haven’t heard back either. Just trying to understand the scattered invites.
Congrats! When did you submit your application? I am just getting so nervous at this point not receiving an email from SDU.

I’m just going to be patient as it seems like they are probably a bit overwhelmed. I haven’t gotten a response yet as to if we are notified of our application status no matter what. I’m an M so I would be middle of the road if it was alphabetical anyway.

Congrats to you too! Are you thinking of accepting the offer?
I just received an acceptance too! I also got into GW, which I have accepted, so hopefully that will open up a spot for someone who got waitlisted to Marymount. Good luck, guys!

I just got an invite for Shenandoah too!
I'm not sure, they are not my number 1 choice. I still have a few interviews

Do you remember how long it took you to receive that second email from them?
Me too!!! So excited for the both of us!
When did you submit your application ? I submitted mine on Sep 20th and still haven’t heard anything back. I tried to call Ms. Linda but no answer, I guess we just have to be a little bit more patient.
I submitted mine Sept 7th
It took them about a week to send out the second email! It was also during thanksgiving break, so it might have taken them a little longer to send out the second email.

The interview process was very casual. There is one group interview, where you and 3-4 other students interview with a panel of faculty and current DPT students. Then there is one individual interview where it is just you and two faculty members. Very typical questions: "Why PT?" "Why E&H" etc.
They have the opportunity for you to attend a dinner the night before, where they give you info about the program and a facility tour. I highly recommend going to that if you can!
Yea lets just be patient and wait to see what happens. Maybe we will get some good news the end of today!
I have a friend who is a first year there now who found out in late February/early March of this past year. I also talked to some of the admissions people during their open house this past August and they said their admissions board meets once before Christmas and sends out a small amount of acceptances, but that most of the emails go out in the February/March timeframe. ODU is my #1, so hopefully they start looking at them soon!

Do you know anyone else who's heard back? I had my interview 11/22 and have not heard anything yet. My interviewer told me I'd probably hear back thew week before christmas.
Thank you for your response!! About how long do each last?
Ah congrats! Have you confirmed your slot/ if you have, have your heard back about more details?

Thank you!! Yes, I sent an email to Tracie not even 10 minutes after getting the email but still no reply. I’m assuming with the acceptance date for the first round of interviews coming up they’re just busy?

It’s supposed to give more info on which campus you are interviewing at and at what time etc.

Would you be willing to share what the start times are? I know it’s about 4 hours that we will be there, but I’m praying the flight I got home will work. Did they ask if you had a preference etc?
I'll be at the Winchester campus, too! They told me to be there at 8am on December 16th.

The second email gives more information on when and where to go for the interview
Oh, I see, so the first email was just letting everyone know they just got an interview?
At this point, I don't think I will receive an interview 🙁 but good luck everyone that will be interviewing!
I think they do another round of interviews after Christmas! Stay positive!
Oh nice!! I didn’t know they did more interviews other than the 16th and 17th.
I did not know that either! I am going to stay positive until that rejection letter comes in lol

Yeah, the PT I shadowed actually went to Shenandoah and he had his interview sometime in January! I'm not certain, but definitely just keep your head up!
I saw on a thread somewhere that someone already got an acceptance from them. I haven't heard a peep though. 🙁

are you sure that thread was from 2019? or maybe they applied early decision? Because I was told by someone who goes there that they don't send out acceptances until mid-December at the earliest.

I do not know of anyone else who has heard back, but I also do not personally know anyone else who applied there.
