For me it's reasonable! Did you get in anywhere else? Oh maybe I read it wrong then. $20,000 is definitely doable! I was planning on calling them today to confirm just for peace of mind. I got in at ENMU. I accepted since I didn’t want the opportunity slip away in the chance that all my waitlisted schools said no. Better safe than sorry ? How about you?

kcb Posted April 23, 2019 Share Posted April 23, 2019 I thought the interview was laid back, but I found the questions a bit difficult! It is possible that we all got different questions, I'm not sure. The director told me they hope to let everyone know within two weeks, so that is exciting. I am in state and if I get accepted I will definitely accept! There aren't many schools for SLP in SC and because of family/work things I can't move. Good luck everyone! This whole process is stressful haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am on two waitlists and waiting to hear back from two schools, so I have nothing right now. LOL so sad I know. If I do get off the waitlist I am unsure what I will do tbh. I googled rent/living expenses in SC and it is more reasonable and affordable. There was apartments for $600-700 right by FMU, I am so tempted by that because I have been commuting - back and forth- for for 3/4 days a week for two years.. So I would love to experience the luxury of living close by campus, esp. with classes/clinic. Once I hear back from the schools I guess I would have to weigh everything out, I'll keep you all updated though!

Don't stress anymore! I'm sure you did great on your interview and we will all be getting answers soon! :3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have heard nothing but terrible things about the apartments near the main campus (theft, never fix anything, etc.), but I've heard the ones by the Carter Center are really nice! Just wanted to give you a heads up! And thanks, I am trying not to stress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t get a chance to call today about their tuition so hopefully I’ll get the chance tomorrow. I saw those apartments. It would definitely be a great perk to be right by the University! nguyen16041 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their tuition is around 20,000 for out-of-state. I called a while back to ask about it! The two summer semesters are billed as one semester too, so that helps! I understand if you want to call and ask too, because it was Fall of 2018 when I asked, but I don't think they have changed it https://www.fmarion.edu/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/2018-19-Fall-Fee-Promulgation-Web-1.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The example they show at the bottom left on the first page has me reading it as it being 20,000 for fall semester and then another 20,000 for spring semester which would be too much for me. Hopefully it is just me reading too much into and I can call them soon to clarify. Thank you though! kcb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JordanBroz Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 Hey everyone! I had my interview yesterday, it was definitely laid back, even though I was extremely nervous. I started to get less nervous towards the end of the interview. I'm hoping my nerves didn't sabotage the interview. I was told that interviews end this week and we would hear decisions back from them next week. Also mentioned was students that are waitlisted can be accepted throughout the summer. Hope this helps! kcb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jordancannon30 Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 Hello guys, I took my interview last week! It was definitely laid back. 2 scenario questions, and that's it! I asked how many applicants received interviews and the response was 75. With only 25 spots, 75 seems like a lot. I wish everyone the best of luck! By May 10th, everyone should know.

kcb Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 @jordancannon30 Wow! That does seem like a lot! I didn't think they would get too many applications. That makes me a bit more nervous. Thanks for the info! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jordancannon30 Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 No problem! I'm guessing that it has gained a lot of attention since the accreditation. Only the most competitive received an interview invite. I am hoping for the best! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I didn't ask about the waitlist but I assume there will be one. I was told that the top 25 will know soon and I'm guessing waitlisted people will be informed!

JordanBroz Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Thanks for the update, that is a lot of applicants. Good luck everyone! I was told that we would be informed of the decisions through CSDCAS, does anybody know if we will receive an email? Where on CSDCAS do we check? If anyone can help, that would be awesome. Thanks! ?

kcb Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 @JordanBroz Good luck too! Did the people at FMU tell you that? I didn't think CSDCAS shows if we are accepted or not, but I'm not sure! The director told me I would receive a letter by May 10th, but I really think she meant an email. I don't know many schools that send out actual letters anymore.

JordanBroz Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Thank you!! ☺️ Yes, my interviewer mentioned CSDCAS but I didn't think to ask where on CSDCAS would we find the decision. However, I am thinking that we'll probably receive an email like we did for the interview, not 100% sure though. I checked CSDCAS and I don't see where they can/will let us know. If anyone has info on this, please let us know!! Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
