Your best bet to make an informed decision is to contact the admissions office. Good luck!

Congrats on the II! Not necessarily - you were offered an interview, which means that there are seats available. However, I would say that the class is about 70-80% full (as DO schools are rolling admissions, most schools are almost filled up). I would definitely try to make it though if you can/are interested.
Good luck!They also do deferred acceptances where they'll offer you a seat for next year's class. They pull people off the deferred acceptance list before they go onto the waitlist. Last year, they went through all the people on the deferred acceptance list and even into the waitlist.
Hello,
I interviewed on 02/24/17. I've heard that the admissions committee has a pattern of letting students know of whether or not they have been accepted around the 2nd week on a Wednesday or Thursday, is this true to some extent ? And if accepted can it be either by email or phone call? Or are acceptances done only by phone call? Thanks for all of your insight and time!

I received my phone call exactly 2 weeks from when I was interviewed. You'll receive an e-mail a few days letter with the acceptance letter!
Thanks! Do you know what kind of format the interview is? I can't find anything on their website..

The interview format was discussed many times over on this thread. Good Luck!
One more question. When you received your phone call, who exactly was it that called you? Is it the faculty that conducted your 30 minute interview? Thanks for your time.
Hi everyone. So, I submitted my secondaries yesterday which I realize is late in the cycle...but that's b/c I applied pretty late since I only learned about ATSU SOMA pretty late. Anyhow, I really like their mission and would LOVE to go there. Any ideas about my chances of getting an interview? or when can I expect to hear back from them in general? Thanks!
Just got an acceptance offer! I am so excited! Good luck to everyone else still in the process!
Mnrn it was an admissions rep
M4145: Wow congratulations!! Did you interview on 02/24/17 as well?? And did they literally just call you like right now?? SO SO SO HAPPY FOR YOU!!!
Just got an acceptance offer! Interviewed 2/24. Good luck to everyone else! It's a great school
3451021: Congratulations 3451021! Did they just call you right now?!?! So happy for you!
Yup, just got a call about thirty minutes ago!
Thanks! Yes I did interview on the 24th! I posted about 15 minutes after the call. Good luck to you!

I received an email from admissions asking me to verify my phone number about 30 minutes ago (they had it wrong). Does this mean they are going to call soon? I also interviewed on 2/24.
This suspense is killing me!!

Question: is acceptance pending an open seat the "alternate list"? Is the alternate list different than a waitlist?
It's interesting that I just got an II from this school today. This is really late in the cycle. I already have an offer from a different school and Arizona is really far away from me. I'm planning to go for an interview and check it out, but they got to have some really good reasons for me to move all the way up there. Anyone else making tough decisions at this time?
I have heard that they call people for acceptances from the 02/24/17 interview both today (Wednesday) and tomorrow (Thursday). Not sure how true this is. Does anyone know? Or is it pretty much if you don't get a phone call today then they aren't going to call?
I just scheduled myself. Only one opening left. 3/31 was the last one I saw.
oh...i just submitted my secondaries. i hope they have some more dates coming up :'(
Hat is really late. If you apply again next year apply early. You will have a better chance then.
Congrats! When were you complete? I've been complete since September and still haven't heard anything. Anyone else in the same boat?
I submitted mine sometimes around there too. I think this might be them picking up the left overs lol. Idk if there are still openings left but good luck to you.
actually, the secondaries aren't officially due until April 1st. So I'm wondering now what happens to the ones who submit around the deadline?
Oh really. I did scroll to April and did not see any dates opening. Maybe they'll open up more later on?! I don't know. I never scrolled to May though BTW.

Interviews tend to last until the end of April. So it still might be worth to submit the secondaries. I wish you guys the best!
what 2 week deadline...? the secondaries aren't officially due until april. And I know this is super late, but jsut wanted to know how things turned out for u ?
thanks! I am a nervous wreck right now because I know how late it is. I am already sitting on another acceptance, but ever since i learned about SOMA, I know this is where I wanna go! Wish i knew abt it earlier... ugh. BTW, any ideas abt how long they take before they invite u for an interview or not?
Hey guys. I'm late to the game but just got an II. Trying to decide if I want to attend. I see above someone mentioned the available CHC at this point. Anyone know if there is a lot of movement among the CHC sites due to people dropping/etc? I'm not too interested in the ones left. Sorry if this has been talked about I tried using the search first
just wondering, when did you submit your secondaries!?
GOODLUCK ON THE INTERVIEW

Unofficial two week deadline. And I withdrew after being admitted to other schools.
Do you happen to know if they have sent out denial letters/emails ? And if so, do they send these out around the same time they issue the acceptance offers? I'm curious. Thanks for your time.

That, I'm not too sure about to be honest. You might want to check on previous posts to see if anyone has mentioned it! Sorry!
Did you get a phone call? I remember one particular member did not get a phone call, but found out he was accepted.
Hi Luckyely91, thank you for you replies. I truly appreciate this. Just out of curiosity, the particular member who didn't get a phone call, but found out he was accepted, how did he end up discovering he was accepted ? Did he just call the school himself and ask? Or was there some other form of communication that he discovered he was accepted ?
And no I have not gotten a phone call yet.

Just got an interview invite yesterday. Is this pretty much for waitlist/pending seat spots?
EDIT: On their interview page in the portal it says "Due to high demand and limited seats, we are interviewing pending an open seat in the class."

I don't remember exactly, but I believe he received an e-mail a few days afterward. You can look through previous posts though just to make sure.
