What’s the process for sending these? I haven’t gotten anything from them yet

I created an account... Is that all we have to do? No secondary?
 
Created my account yesterday, my supplemental items listing shows they have to verify receipt of all requirements
Guess that's all we need to do for this application
 
The secondary was integrated into the primary. I believe we have nothing left to do but wait.

This is beautiful. Every school should follow their lead.

Anyone else get the Casper email today? I did mine and sent it already, just curious if anyone else got the email.

What did the Casper email say? I haven't gotten one. I recently took it but didn't send it to des Moines cause I didn't think it was necessary

It just says that it's optional, why they're doing it, how long it takes to get to DMU, etc... I sent it in since I was sending it to other places anyway. I figure that if most people do it, it would look bad if I didn't.
 
The CASPer creeps me out a bit but I might do it if I feel like I'm in a good enough mood for it
 
If it’s optional, is it really optional or if you don’t do it, does it look bad?

One of my professors said you should do it because it could look bad. (Dmu prof) for what it's worth

Does it matter when we take the CASPer exam or does it just have to be prior to them making a decision?

I wasn't going to take it at first but now that most of everyone on this forum is thinking about it or has already taken it then I'll join in too as to not feel left out lol.

Just created an account today (from the email).

"submit supplemental items" isn't complete.

What do I need to do?
 
Invite to pay the secondary fee!! Wohoooo! My top choice!!

That's interesting. I received an auto email saying that they "do not require a supplemental or fee." Anyway, I submitted my primary today (with those extra 2 essay questions embedded).
 
Application marked received on portal 7/19. Lets hope the 2 weeks time is more like 1 week for processing!
 
Yes I did! Does anyone know if DMU has a screening process for secondary invite?
There's no secondary. We're all just waiting for the II, or the screening out before the II.

What do you guys have listed under a academic level?

For the first item under the checklist, do you actually have to do anything or just wait for them to complete it?


Just wait for them to complete your application. I created my portal on July 16th.
