I interviewed a few months ago! It was a really pleasant interview. It was a small group interview with a few faculty members and then a Q&A with current students. I just made sure to ask lots of questions and seem as engaged as possible. None of the questions were tricky or hard to answer. Good luck with your interview!

I have a virtual interview with them tomorrow! How long did it take them to notify you if you had gotten in? Also, how do you feel about the location of the school?? I’ve been trying to learn more about Chester because I heard it’s not the best city

Hi! I had an interview with Widener a few months ago. What we did was a zoom meeting and they gave a short presentation about their school. We then did a group interview with 3 teachers and a few other applicants. They asked a question and we each had a chance to answer the same question. We then went into another breakout group with current students to be able to ask them questions. I answered the questions with the best of my ability and made sure I asked the students at least 2 questions.

I got accepted to Widener about two weeks after the interview! I dont know much about Chester, but I drove around the campus itself and it looks nice on campus.

I hope this helps.

Nice! I had my interview already and just very anxious about hearing back. I actually went today to drive around the campus it’s soooo spread out! I was suprised. If you go there would you stay at the hub? It’s this off campus housing that’s literally next to widener. Also have you accepted your decision? How much is widener too? I don’t see it on their website lol

I currently live in South Jersey, so I will just be commuting, its like 45 min. I did accept, I really liked everyone I interviewed with and the faculty. I think it will be a really good fit. I also got in USciences, but it is super expensive.

It is 111 credits for the Widener OTD and costs 1053 per credit.

I have an interview with Salus, and havent heard from Jefferson or Gwynedd Mercy yet, but even if I got in to any of the other ones I am pretty sure I will not change my mind.
