How soon after the interview does Huntington give the final decision? I have an interview on November 9 and am wondering what the timeline looks like from there.

I didn’t have a patient simulation when I interviewed there. I had a discussion in my interview regarding ethical decisions so I would think it would be relating to ethics. The best advice would be use be yourself and show why you want to be OT. Be able to Explain what OT is and why this is your chosen profession. Smile a lot too. I liked Indiana State and it’s a really good program but I love St. Ambrose. The curriculum design and the way the program is set up works really well for me. On my interview day i could just really see myself attending here over any of the other schools. It’s an amazing program that is very student centered.

Hey!
Just be yourself! They have few questions about occupational therapy like how would you handle difficult patients from different background. Something like that.
