Do you happen to know wht that means? Will DMU be calling every reference number i listed? Because some of the numbers i put were from people i worked with years ago and i don't want DMU to think i was lying and like flag CASPA or something

Libby,

No, I don’t really know what their process is other than they are reviewing what we submitted and letting us know if they need anything more. If you find out more from the school though let me know!

My application review was completed today 6/26. Has anyone received an email from them to do the Kira assessment or an interview?

Hm, my application material says that it has been received, but I have not heard anything from them yet. 

[libby29]

This is what I got when I emailed them about the progress of my verification 

[libby29]

Let’s hope! When did your friend apply, and did they say whether it was the in-person interview or the Kira online questionnaire?

She has an in-person interview. And she's a re applicant from last year. So idk if that has anything to do with it.

They sent the link to me via email about a week after I applied.

I did the Kira assessment a few weeks ago and scheduled the on-campus portion for September. Does anyone know what the on-campus portion will entail? Is it just a tour and information session, or is there an interview during this as well? I am just trying to figure out what I need to do to best prepare

I wonder if they only send it to people who they plan on interviewing. Was it the supplemental?

It’s an introductory presentation, campus tour, Q&A with current students, and a faculty panel. No interview portion. Completed my in-person session on August 13 and was just accepted this week!!! Good luck to everyone!
