Do you mind sharing when you received your prereq email and how soon after you got your interview invite? I've only received the prereq email so far.
I received the prereq confirmation on the 23rd and the interview offer a week later.

It hasn't been a week since the 23rd yet. Do you mean you got your actual interview invitation on the 23rd?
I would say wait this week and if you don't hear back maybe email them and ask if you want.I did my interview on the 22nd and still haven't heard anything. I think it is going to be bad news for me.

Thanks for the encouragement! I am still holding out hope.Don't lose hope! It seems like they are really busy with applications and the fact that you haven't received a rejection letter means that you still have a fighting chance.
For me they took about a week. Did you get the prerequisite email?How long do they take to complete checking over the prereq stuff? :/ Haven't heard back
Yeah I got an email on Jan 24th saying "Your application is being evaluated for prerequisite completion." and nothing else since then :/For me they took about a week. Did you get the prerequisite email?

There is still plenty of time and its only been a week. Give it some some time and don't lose hope. They're very nice so emailing the school and asking about your application status is always an option.Same with me. Same date and everything. Let me know if you hear back! I hate waiting :/
Wow that's a long time :/ I wonder how often they interview.. Like every week until March? Or... ? Does anyone know?For me I got my prereq evaluated in late Dec... Nothing since then. I am not expecting much for myself at this point.
Seems like every week or every other week. I believe they will be interviewing until march because when they sent me the email with the dates for January interviews there was a note saying that if none of the January dates worked they would let me know with dates for February or MarchWow that's a long time :/ I wonder how often they interview.. Like every week until March? Or... ? Does anyone know?
Ahh I was going to apply for WSU but I wasn't able to finish the supplemental essays since I was just... Well, lazy, haha. But I did get another email from UW today with my updated prereq statuses!! They also included this information about the interviews:Although UW is my home school, it's okay! I committed to WSU yesterday which I'll be just as happy attending due to cheaper tuition and small school setting! I am excited about having a change of environmemt' good luck to those interviewing I know ya'll will rock it!
Congrats!I got in!
I just got an interview invitation today! I don't think I can make it to any of the dates that they've given me though One of the dates is next Friday and the flight prices are way hiked up because of Valentine's Day weekend -_-Ahh I was going to apply for WSU but I wasn't able to finish the supplemental essays since I was just...

"Typically, applicants are interviewed between late-January and mid-April."

Yay us! Which interview dates were you offered?I got one too!
Contact them about it. They will probably have more dates for end of February and March.I just got an interview invitation today!

Oh ok! Yeah I got an email back the morning after I asked for alternative dates and will be interviewing on February 19th! Cher hasn't replied to my email yet though and I emailed her last night with my interview date decision :/@serendipity15 I was offered the same ones. Did they get back to you about scheduling an alternate day?
I thought the interview was actually not hard. It's very relaxed so that you feel comfortable and the interviewers made conversation and were very nice. So don't worry or be nervous.My experience with UW since a few people were wondering about the timeframe people are getting emails.
My application was on hold for my Jan PCAT. Pearson sent out my scores last Tuesday.
UW confirmed completed app on Friday.
Confirmed prerequisites on Sunday.
Interview invite Monday. I emailed and scheduled an interview today (Tuesday) and they got back to me within the hour to confirm the date/time.
I'm not sure I'm a strong enough applicant for UW so I'd have to kill the interview. Only thing is I heard it was brutal :/
Good luck to everyone
I got a reply back from Cher about my exact interview time today. She said I would get "an email confirmation shortly" but seeing as she replied back right before 5 PM I'm assuming I would get it tomorrow.How long does it take for them to confirm your interview schedule? I emailed them last Friday and haven't heard anything back. I'm from out of state so I need to confirm my plane tickets and hotels.
Is it a 1 on 3 interview and is the only way to prepare basically to refresh our memory on our personal statement and supplemental application? I just wanted to double check haha. I'm nervous as it'll be my first open file interview x_xI thought the interview was actually not hard.

About the time frames for email, they've always been pretty fast with me. They've always emailed me back within a day or two.
They said it be 3 on 1 but for me it was 2 on 1. They literally had all of my documents out there. They asked me questions from my file and some they already had prepared. The interview was more of a conversation, I felt very comfortable, and felt very personal. Like the questions they asked me where tailored to my experiences. Definitely make sure you know what you wrote on your personal statement and the supplemental application essays. To prepare I found a list of questions asked on interviews and worked on them with someone from my university.Is it a 1 on 3 interview and is the only way to prepare basically to refresh our memory on our personal statement and supplemental application?

Were both interviewers UW staff or were there also local pharmacists?
Also for those coming from out of state, what hotel did you stay at/are you planning to stay at?

They used to have an essay portion I believe. It is no longer a part of their interview process.I forgot to ask! Will there be an essay? I'm reading through the attached pdf right now and they said we'd be evaluated through our "verbal and written communication skills" but I haven't seen any mentions of an essay on the pdf nor on this post..
No essay. Show up, get the tour, do the interview, watch a couple min video and done. I was there about 2 hrs max. Don't stress about the interview.I forgot to ask! Will there be an essay?
