I have an interview inviation for Fort Lauderdale, but haven't heard anything from Tampa. Is this common not to be invited to interview at both? The application was the same so I don't know why one would interview me and the other not.

I had the opposite situation. Accepted at Tampa, but have heard nothing from Ft Laud (except when I call them with questions). Hah and last year, I interviewed at Ft Laud and heard nothing from Tampa. Go figure.

I interviewed at both, so I think I can answer your question. They're two separate programs that make separate admission decisions. They even have different things that they look for in their candidates.

So Brente did you hear back if you got in to either?? And what kinds of different things do they look for in candidates? Are you talking grades/GREscores/healthcare experience? I would imagine they would be similar since it technically is the same school, but I suppose I will find out when I interview.

Yes I was accepted to both, but I chose another program. As far as what they look for, I just got a different vibe at each program. I'm sure that there are differences in the things you mentioned, but I really think it's more about how you would fit in to their culture. These programs are difficult, and I think they try to pick people that would adjust and perform well.

As far as applying, I sent all my supporting documents to the Ft Lauderdale campus, I didn't see any address to send to Tampa specifically. Is this correct?

This is correct, although the documents do not go to the program directly. They should go through EPS first. EPS then distributes the documentation to the Tampa and Ft. Lauderdale programs.

That's what I did, but I was wondering the same thing. But I actually didn't even apply to Ft. Lauderdale campus.
