EP24: I went to the open house and really loved the program. I feel like I only see negative things about the program on these boards so I am hoping my post will initiate others to write good things as well. I felt like the program was full of extremely intelligent people who were a little more laid back than other programs (BU,MGH) which is more my type. The student panel was extremely helpful and students gave their personal experiences and answered tons of questions. One thing that stuck out that was mentioned was that last year there were 7 competitive clinical placement sites and NEU students were placed in all 7. The year before there were 6 and NEU got 5 of the 6. The students and faculty were extremely friendly and willing to answer any questions. They students frequently made jokes with one another and the professors which gave me a sense that they have great relationships within the program. The research and academics were also very impressive. I will mostly likely be attending but am still weighing out all my options. Hope this helps and pushes other people to make positive comments about this great program!
I'm still waiting to hear as well. I find it interesting that they seem to have sent out waitlist notifications before acceptances/rejections. Or at least that's what it looks like from the grad cafe results page. Hopefully we get good news soon!
Which of your schools do interviews? A lot of programs don't so just because you don't have an interview doesn't mean you won't get in! This waiting period honestly sucks!
