Hey guys, I live in Virginia and I have been reading about how you need a car as an essential at WCUCOM. Is it more feasible to drive my car down or to buy a car there?

During my 2/27 interview they told me they were a little backlogged with getting back so I’d expect you hear something this upcoming Thursday.

your choice is up to you. if you have a reliable car it seems much more cost effective to use your current car than purchase another one. but yes a car is essential!
 
Are there any current students lurking here I could DM and ask questions?

what do we send to the school with our registration form to prove we paid our seat deposit? I paid with PayMyTuition but haven't received the confirmation email from them that WCUCOM has received it. I was going to send a screenshot of the initial email they sent that PayMyTuition received my payment, but I don't know if that's good enough.

I think the person who does confirmation emails for the payment is out of office. I called yesterday and that’s what I was told. As long as you sent the registration form and then payment you should be good though but give them a call tomorrow to see what’s up just in case.

I sent a screenshot of the confirmation of payment with the registration form and that was good!

OOS A!!! Interviewed 2/22! Do you guys know when is the second deposit due after the initial payment?
 
wondering the same (interviewed the 28th). maybe we'll hear back tomorrow or next week since it seems they were backed up a bit on getting back to students.
Yeah that’s what I was thinking. It seems like they do acceptances on Thursday so we should probably hear back by the 14th

FYI we are on spring break until 3/18 so you will likely not hear anything until after then

so out of all 7 of my interviews this was the kindest/most calm interview, it's basically just talking about your life experiences and college background! everyone is really friendly and wants to get to know you. Best of luck! ♥

If you go to the SDN website and look through the questions, then you should be prepared! My interviewers were friendly, and they mostly just asked me those basic questions on the site. Just try to keep calm and cool in case they throw you a crazy question (which I highly doubt, aside from an ethical question, that it will be bad). Good luck!
