So my VCOM interview is this Tuesday, anybody have any tips or hints? A part of my is starting to freak out a little with it being my first interview
Will be interviewing Dec 1st!!! Someone said the comfort inn was nice? Received email on Wed that my application was complete and Fri morning had a call for the interview. Very nice, and quick turn around, even more impressed everyday. Good luck to everyone...
Accepted here today as well, loved the place when I was there and how great are the admissions staff. They made me feel right at home and I could really see myself spending the next 4 years there. I am currently torn between two schools and now have to make one of the biggest decisions of my life, Ahhhh the stress never ends. Anyways good luck to everyone I know you will love the place just like I did!!!!
Thanks for the input on the interview everyone. It was exactly as described and there is truly no reason at all to be nervous. The admissions staff is amazing and are some of the kindest people you will ever meet. Mattie is amazing and the school is so lucky to have her. Any anxiety or nervousness you have will be completely gone within a couple minutes of being there, I promise. Just go in, know what your talking about and why you really want to be there. The school is really coming along and I was impressed with Spartanburg and therefore could really see myself living there some day. The area where the school was built did not seem bad at all. I have seen and been around much worse. It is going to be gated and a guard will be at the gate 24 hours a day so you really should have nothing to worry about. Here's to hoping I hear good news eventually. Good luck to everyone!!!
Congrats to everyone who was accepted! I have an interview here on 12/13 and I was just wondering if anyone had tips on how to prepare? This is the first interview I have which is broken up into 3 separate interviews. Was each person a doctor/faculty member? Also, were there just typical questions such as why VCOM, why DO? etc or more specific questions out of your own application? Sounds like this is a great school and I hope I get accepted here...just nervous for the interview!!
all the best.the admissions meeting is today...they said if it goes quick they might be able to make calls today/tonight, otherwise it would be tomorrow...
I understand. and gues what they call in the evening too.I really enjoyed meeting everyone. It's been a long week waiting, really don't want to wait another night!
It's pretty relaxed, and they really just wanna get to know you as a person. Be able to articulate yourself well; keep in mind that it is a new school and they may be looking for candidates that will be able to adjust to such an environment, take leadership, etc.
Good luck though!
If you still are waiting for an interview invite, your best bet is to try to get in touch with Mattie Bendall. As others have said, she is super nice and willing to serve applicants. I was complete in August but she wanted to see my first trimester grades from November before I received an invite. Does anyone have any thoughts on things to see when I visit Spartansburg in Jan? Im looking forward to the SC weather and chance to see the school in the construction process.
getting pumped about my interview on Jan 18th... anyone else interviewing that day?
Ill be interviewing the 17th. Im getting really stoked. Are you in town for the weekend?
Does anyone know the percent of people who are accepted after they interview?
Hi all,
I initially submitted all of my secondary app. materials in early sept. but never got any confirmation (even after several calls and emails,) I figured I was either being placed on hold or a silent rejection. But around 2 weeks ago I recieved a call from Megan in admissions asking me to submit the secondary application. I explained to her that I already had but never heard anything, she then informed me that they did not recieve anything and to submit it again asap. Is there any significance to this?, or am I just wasting my time and money? I have one acceptance already but VCOM-CC is where I really want to be. Thanks

I've got a question that someone might be able to answer. Has anyone heard if there will be a lecture recording o/ scribe service for next year? I know a few schools have similar study tools which are really helpful. I guess they would probably bring this to Spartanburg if this happens to be a service they offer at VCOM-VC. Thanks
If it's where you really want to be, I would just resend the application since it's just an email. Also, if your email keeps sent emails, check for your initial email and let them know the time/date etc. Since it is an email I can imagine it may get lost or mixed up...seemed like a goofy way to submit an app. Your best bet is to talk to Mattie, she's great.
Edit: Also in terms of money, you sent a check right?? If they cashed it, that's kind of proof that they received something, and you can def. talk to your bank to receive that info.
