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 did the Kira this week. How long after you submitted it did you receive the invitation for the in-person session?

MLJPA Posted September 3 Share Posted September 3 Does anyone know when they are done with interviews? I was verified 7/30 and my application is completed, but I have not heard back yet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No interview portion. Completed my in-person session on August 13 and was just accepted this week!!! Good luck to everyone! Congrats on the acceptance!! What did you wear to this portion? I am debating wearing my blazer and dress pants but was unsure if that would be too overdressed. When in doubt, I would rather be overdressed than underdressed, but I was just curious of your opinion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I completed Kira on 8/2, got an email saying they received it and a link to register for the on-campus portion on 8/5! So I would say you should be receiving that second email shortly! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iowaPA1008 Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 Hi! I submitted my application back in July, made a portal account, and the status has been "completed" for a while now, but I haven't heard back on anything... Anyone else in the same boat, apply around the same time as me, or heard back recently? I used the chat on their website and she guessed it would be another month or two Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
libby29 Posted October 3 Share Posted October 3 Just received the link for the interactive component of the interview! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I too was in the same boat. I applied early June and didn't hear anything for the longest while so i sent an inquiry email asking about the status of my application/saying dmu was my stop school blah blah blah and then 3 days later i got an interview invite. I think they are just on the slower side of things Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raePA2002 Posted October 10 Share Posted October 10 I just got a KIRA interview invite!! Wondering how the KIRA was from everyone else that participated in it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HopefulPA921 Posted October 10 Share Posted October 10 I just got an interview today! I cannot tell if it makes a difference whether you do the second portion in person or online. I live eight hours away and will come if it is like an actual interview, but I can’t tell if it makes a difference in whether you’re accepted or not. Any advice?

I'm also debating this, but from what I've heard, I don't think it matters!! There is no interview for either of them. Both have a Q&A with program faculty, and the virtual one is in breakout groups on Zoom - so honestly you might have more opportunities for personal interaction that way.

iowaPA1008 Posted October 10 Share Posted October 10 It looks like only 1 person has posted on this forum so far that they've been accepted.. Anyone else here been accepted?? Also wondering if anyone has been rejected after doing Kira or both interview components? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
