Rezzy S. Posted March 6, 2019 Author Posted March 6, 2019 Does anyone know if CSULB does interviews? They announced decisions 3/6 last year, but I haven't heard anything from them.

Looks like Chapman may be wrapping up interviews this week too. I never ended up hearing from Chapman. They weren't my top pick, so I'm not devastated, but definitely wondering what I botched in my SOP and hoping I didn't do the same for any other school! My stats seemed fine based on EdFind, so I can only imagine it was the SOP. Could be I was lacking the type of experience they're looking for, too. Edited March 6, 2019 by Rezzy S.

I'm a 2nd semester grad student at CSULB and they are going to be sending out interview emails this Friday afternoon. Interview is set to be March 23rd. There was an administrative delay this year, according to a professor. Ali_Irene13 and Rezzy S. 2

Any advice you can offer on the interviews (will it be a group interview on the 23rd, or individuals all set on the same day?). How do you like the program?

I know my on time application was just released to the department two days ago so an administrative delay makes sense. How do you like the program? Is it about 50% CSULB undergrads?

Luckily, CSULA was my last choice. I turned my applications in before Thanksgiving. There's plenty of time for you to get accepted still! Hi! I did my undergrad at CSUN. Did you apply to the residential program or the online distance program? I have yet to hear from any of my schools yet. Also for Long Beach did you find out in an email or on the applicant services portal? Thank you for any information. Good Luck!

The program is well-balanced; I would say it's roughly half and half CSULB undergrads and half from other schools. The program is challenging at times, but definitely will prepare you well! 1 hour ago, Rosegrl211 said: Thank you!

I was told interview offers will go out Friday afternoon, no word about rejections. From what I remember last year though, they don't send out rejections until everything is all done and all have been accepted. They do group interviews! I would say just be relaxed and sociable. They're looking for people who are collaborative and personable along with good stats. Edited March 6, 2019 by joannly Unaddressed question! Ali_Irene13 1
Ali_Irene13 Posted March 6, 2019 Posted March 6, 2019 @joannly Thank you so much for all the information; it is extremely helpful!!

Rezzy S. Posted March 7, 2019 Author Posted March 7, 2019 I saw someone was invited to CSUF’s open house on the results page. Anyone know if all of the invitations have been sent out for that or how many people were invited?

Rosegrl211 Posted March 9, 2019 Posted March 9, 2019 Just saw a Long Beach invite to interview show up on the results page.
Jspeechy Posted March 9, 2019 Posted March 9, 2019 Does anyone know if Long Beach sent out all interview invitations today? Or are they doing it in waves?

Ali_Irene13 Posted March 9, 2019 Posted March 9, 2019 I saw some Long Beach interview invites on the results page too. I still haven't received anything from Long Beach and I tried to do the Applicant Self Service today and for some reason I haven't received the status reports I sent myself. It has worked many other times before but not today. Weird. I hope we all hear something soon.

Ahhh I’m praying for us... hoping they are not finished sending out invites...

Where else did you apply @Jspeechy? For those who received invites to CSUF and CSULB that haven't previously attended there, what were your stats like? Were there any experiences that you think made you stand out? (Could be helpful to future applicants who comb these pages like we did!). Thanks!

Pretty disappointing since LB was my top choice. I applied to CSUN, CSULA, Chapman, and Redlands. Were you at the CSULA interview yesterday? How did you think it went? This whole process is so stressful! Really hoping for the best!
Jspeechy Posted March 9, 2019 Posted March 9, 2019 I saw that somebody posted an acceptance to Chapman?! Anybody else get an admissions decision from them? I haven’t heard back since the interview.

It wasn’t my best interview but I didn’t bomb it. Hope that’s enough. How did you feel? Sorry to hear CSULB was your top choice. You never know, they might still send out more invites!

Sorry to hear CSULB was your top choice. You never know, they might still send out more invites! I feel the same. My interviewers were soo nice and so it felt comfortable and easy to build rapport; however, I’m not sure if I fully answered some of the questions that were asked. Yes! Fingers crossed they do, but really I would be ecstatic to get in anywhere. Where else did you apply?
Rosegrl211 Posted March 9, 2019 Posted March 9, 2019 Good luck to everyone who interviewed at CSULA yesterday! I’m just waiting to hear from Chapman post interview, I’m in the “no email” camp from CSULB and CSUF crowd so just waiting for an answer there. How is everyone’s interview seasons going? I’ve got an acceptance ag CSUSM, where I did my post-Bac, so no matter what happens with the rest, I’m so excited to be going to grad school in the fall

I know that first acceptance is magical, like okay, this is happening! I got into UT Austin yesterday and almost cried. I’m still hoping for some CA options though.
