General Admissions & OTCAS Who have you heard back from? 2018-2019 cycle

[MidlandOT]

Have either of you had an interview at North Central yet? Or Lewis? I applied to both in October and haven't heard anything back yet! I know Lewis said they won't make decisions until March but I wasn't sure about North Central.

I interviewed on 10/29 at North Central as well. They had another round of interview last week. I emailed North Central and they said we will hear of decisions after Thanksgiving.

I think I submitted my app too late to be contacted about that first round of interviews, so I am hoping I get an email soon!! I haven't heard back from either school yet But how was the interview? What kind of questions did they ask?

Crossed fingers!! You’ll probably hear back from them by December. Don’t lose hope. Where else did you apply?

Thank you and congrats to you too!! It is definitely toward the top of my list. Are you from GA? I noticed you said "up there," and I can only imagine your avatar is related to UGA lol. I only ask because I live in GA as well.

Yesterday afternoon! I think they typically send out most decisions around March since the deadline isn't for another few weeks

 

[OTkw]

Crossed fingers!! You’ll probably hear back from them by December. Don’t lose hope. Where else did you apply?

I hope so!! I also applied to Maryville University, Chicago State, Lewis, Midwestern (both campuses), Indiana State, and Western Michigan. The only ones I feel like I have a real chance at is Chicago State, Lewis, and North Central though.

I am not 100% sure I am accepting Allen College interview. I have yet to be accepted anywhere but Rockhurst is my #1 choice and I don't want another interview to ruin that weekend or my preparation. Any advice would be much appreciated.

Congrats on all of your interviews!! I would say if you don't see yourself going to Allen then maybe skip that interview. Out of the other 4 schools, you are bound to get into at least one. But if you want to play it safe and have more options, going to the Allen interview won't hurt.

Thanks for the response! If you don't mind me asking, did they contact you by phone or email? And was there anything else you submitted to Brenau directly after submitting through OTCAS?

Hi, congratulations on your interviews! Can I ask when you submitted your app to Brenau? I submitted earlier this month but haven't heard back about an interview as of yet.

My application was verified in early October and I heard back from Brenau on Oct 17th. I was originally supposed to interview in November but I had a conflict so I had to move it to January.

When was your UIC app submitted?

I submitted in mid-September. Their admissions coordinator said that they started to look at applications in the beginning of October, but they consider the quality of applications over when you submit it (as long as it's before the deadline of course)
