So excited! Anyone else have the afternoon interview on 2/27? Anyone have any advice or tips?

wow.Also, have you seen Gran Torino? I would suggest learning how to talk like a man...
Can anyone tell me how long it took after you were considered "complete" to hear back for an interview? I want to have an idea before I start busting out some serious charm to try and get one.
On another note, has anyone else received e-mails from admissions telling you they only need "1 letter, or whatever before your file can be reviewed!"? It made me feel super special but then when I was complete I didn't hear anything back
Thanks !
2 weeks. Good luck!
lol @ the talk like a man scene from Gran Torino!
BTW, what is the Federal School Code to use on FAFSA for ATSU-SOMA??? I cant seem to find it on the FAFSA website (and am too lazy to search through my acceptance packet papers).
Thanks 'bruce.So you haven't made a final decision yet? I thought that you were going to PA for sure.
Thanks 'bruce.
I am still pretty certain Penn State is where I'll end up. I just get moments of "what if..." and I think that SOMA could make me just as happy of a camper. A lot of it has to do with warm weather though...and a possibility of practicing where I might end up working (Hawaii CHC). So I don't know if those items are good forms of rubrik to follow. I am not even sure if I will receive a financial aid offer before that second payment of $500 is due...but if, on the small chance, that I do get some offer that is alluring enough to make me reconsider my plans...I know I would have to look into that option deeply.
lol, you bastard.... (Although if you don't come to SOMA, I'm dropping you as a facebook friend, so you might want to take that into account when choosing, haha)
i should have an interview sometime in march. does anyone know if the brooklyn chc has been filled up yet?
I really hope they change this...it really messed things up for me.No CHC's are filled up because nobody has chosen one yet. You do not pick a CHC until orientation.
I really hope they change this...it really messed things up for me.
What they could try ... is to have a "second look" visit wherein they invite all accepted students back to the campus once they are finished interviewing. Those who are interested in matching with just one particular CHC would be particularly encouraged to attend.
The CHC directors would be present as well. Then, mini interviews could be conducted to determine "fit." All concerned students would then be notified if they were accepted into a particular CHC BEFORE they matriculate.
Any student who does not attend will still have an opportunity to match into a preferred CHC during orientation...they just won't have priority on certain sites that others have deemed their top choice.
That could be a possible solution...
hey guys can you recommend a shuttling service that can help me get to and from the airport to the hotel and to the airport and back?
I actually just decided to apply to SOMA. I was just wondering if people think it's too late even though the accept apps until 3/1.
Couple questions for you guys...
I am on the waitlist and wanted to email a couple of updates. Do you guys know where i send those to? Is it Joyce, or just the admissions email?
Also, for anyone who has toured a CHC, how did you go about doing that? Did SOMA set you up, or did you contact the CHC yourself?
And Finally, this might be a silly question, but is this school fully accredited? I know AT Still in Kirksville is, but don't know if it's any different for SOMA.
Thanks for any help!
Does anyone know exactly how SOMA matches students with the different CHCs?? I am on the waitlist and would LOVE to attend SOMA, but I have doubts about where I might end up... I'm from the midwest and REALLY don't want to go to the Ohio CHC.
I don't know how it will work exactly. But I think that if you REALLY want to go to Ohio, you will be able to, especially with roots there. Plus it's not as sexy as some of the other sites, so you won't have other random people to compete against.
Depending on how quickly you want to get to your destination. Cheapest and slow is the bus system if you are not arriving late. There is a main bus depot within half a mile of two hotels. The terminals are Superstition Springs Blvd and Power Rd in Mesa or Superstition Springs/Center. If you take the most direct route it is supposed to be just over an hour but look it up and make a plan at http://www.valleymetro.org/. If you want a shuttle there is supershuttle (don't know the cost). Supershuttle is the option many people take who do not rent a car.
Country Inn and LaQuinta on Superstition Springs have a shuttle that will take you to and from the school interview but does not go to the Phoenix SkyHarbor Airport (only within five miles). Hope this helps.
NOOO i don't want to go there. I'm sick of the midwest and would love HI, portland, or seattle
Oh, haha, yeah, I misread your thing. Maybe that means I should go to Ohio, haha.
how do you get to the supershuttle? thanks a lot! is there a site?
... but SOMA's curriculum seems to fit my learning style a little better.
Anyone in the middle group of the waitlist hear anything yet??
I just submitted my AACOMAS yesterday, does anyone know what the chances of getting an interview are?
A friend of mine was invited to interview here a few days ago, and it looks like the class is already full. So they are currently extending interview invites for waitlist positions only.
was it stated explicitly that class was full and the interview was for a waitlist position only? or did your friend find out, after the fact?
It was explicitly stated in the email invite.
Yes. Maybe your application is more competitive than my friend's and would be given different consideration. But yeah, her email was pretty clear in interviewing for WL only =/
