I got an invite email on Feb 3, so about 10 days before the actual interview.
 
Hi all,
I have also been accepted! I was wondering if anyone had any information about on campus housing. Is that an option? Do students commonly live on or off campus?

For those of you who have been accepted, how long after your interview did you hear back?

I hear on campus is very expensive so most live off. I'm planning to live in the Virginia or Maryland area and just commute.

To those that have been accepted, have you guys recieved any information after sending the conformation and payment?
 
I had my interview on Feb 6th and got accepted two weeks after. They wanted me to send the payment and verification form by March 3rd. For those who have not heard back or still waiting for the interview, I heard they do the interview till march end, so do not lose hope.

I had a skype interview with Howard on Feb 27th too! Luckily, I have put down a deposit at a different OT program recently so I have kind of given up on contacting Howard. But since the interview I did call the school multiple times and emailed the woman who I interviewed with too. It was pretty frustrating but, the last I heard was they hadn't made an admissions decision for me yet. I don't think it hurts to call to ask about you admissions status though. Best of luck! Stay positive!

Thanks so much for the response! I might try calling next week
 
I got waitlisted. Got the email yesterday morning.
 
Has anyone been removed from the waitlist at Howard? As of May 5th they told me no one had been taken off the waitlist to be accepted.
 
Anyone know if they out emphasis on the GRE? Im thinking about applying but I do not see anything about the GRE on their website and I cannot get anyone to answer the phone to ask.

I am a current student. My GRE score was on the lower end but I think if you have a higher GPA, good recommendations etc. they will take that into account. Good luck !
 
Hey all! I just got in to Howards OT program yesterday!! Can anyone in the program tell me a little about the program? How it is and the areas to live
