I also accepted a seat in Henderson from the Feb 2 interview. He said they still had lots of seats left.
Good luck to everyone!

Congratulations to those got accepted to USN.
I got a call from Dr. DeYoung on Jan. 26 and his confirmation email on the same day, but have not received the admission package in the mail yet. I'm wondering if any of you have gotten it yet, please let me know. Thank you.
Admission package will be mailed in the first week of March. You won't receive anything now except an admissoin offer by an email.

I don't know how many spots are left but I'm sure there are plenty of seats. If they are doing it like last year, I believe they hand out a few spots to people with high point totals first and then wait until interviews are over to rank the rest of the candidates. I wouldn't worry about spots running out because you have a late interview date. Just nail the interview and the rest will take care of itself.
Thank you SO much, diastole. You helped put me at ease a bit since I do have a later interview. As you most likely know, there are a few negative reviews about the block and 90% pass/fail systems at USN. What are your thoughts since you are a current student? What happens if you don't get a 90% or better on an exam?
Again, thanks for your help and insight!
You take an exam every other Friday. You need a 90% to pass but in reality 85% is good enough most of the time. After you take the first exam, you retake the exact same exam with your team ...
Do you get to pick the teams?
Do you know approx the % of students who need to retake a test during the summer, per test?
PS- anyone interviewing march 2nd. Give me a PM if you are.
Your teams are assigned and usually have seven people in it. I have no idea the answer to the second question. I suspect it is easily less than 10% of the class but that is a total guess. I always get my three day weekends so I couldn't even tell you how many people have to retake on a Monday.
Good luck with your interview.
it seems like usn interviews everyday! how many interviews have been conducted so far and what are the dates. what dates are left?
Hey. I had my interview on Tuesday (2/16) in the Henderson, NV. I felt that I did pretty well on the interview. I was wondering, for the current students/applicants that got accepted, how long did it take before you guys got your acceptance call? Just wondering...The anticipation is killing me lol
Hey Diastole, I received my acceptance and will be attending USN this year. Is it possible to work while attending classes? From what you gather, what is the percentage of students that work? I don't want to take out a loan for my personal expenses bc of the high interest rate. Thanks!
Sorry if its already been asked but i was wondering what kind of computer does USN make you buy? The reason is i already have a newer macbook pro and i dont really want to buy a new one, plus i want to save the money. Thanx
Ohh come on now i love my mac. Its a bummer you cant use your own personal computer. Just another way to suck money outa ya. Thanx for th help guys. Hopefully my interview goes swimmingly.
It may take about a week.....mostly within 2 weeks....in ur case, u shd be hearing from Dr. DeYoung in next week, if you are accepted as an outstanding student...
Thanx for the reassurance. I was going over some of my answers that I gave to them, and I felt that I shouldn't have said somethings lol. Oh well, it looks like I'm in for the long wait.
I have to agree with benbhunter...not being able to use my Macbook pro is a shame indeed.
You can still use it. You should see my husband. He likes to work with three computers around him. You can have one computer with your slides and one for sites that distract you like facebook or SDN or whatever it is that is keeps you from studying all the time.

I had a choice of 3 interview dates in feb and nabbed the earliest one possible which was on 2/2. I felt the interview went well because I did a lot of research about the school which showed them that I really wanted to attend. Dr. Deyoung called me on 2/9 a week after and told me that I was accepted.
Dr. Deyoung told me that he calls the applicants who have the highest scores first. Then he waits for the interview process to be over and ranks everyone according to their scores. The majority of students are accepted after the interviews. So if you haven't heard yet don't worry! He mentioned that there were plenty of seats available.
Diastole, thanks for the heads up. I guess I have to see if I can handle the curriculum while working. Right now I work full time and go to school full time so I think I may be able to handle it, but who knows.
I'm still anxious about getting a call ...Well, I guess I'll know tomorrow lol. When did he call you? In the morning, afternoon, evening? Does he do it all day or something?
I got an interview today....diastole, when you have the time, see if you can answer my question.
I'm probably a weird exception to why I have received an interview when I shouldn't have...
Why would you say that you were exception? Are you saying it because of your stats?
Exactly because of that reason.
I don't even know if I'm going to accept it hahaha
Thanks anyways
I interviewed at the Utah campus last Thursday, and Dr. DeYoung just called me today and said I was accepted. I am so relieved.
Good Luck to everyone
