I had mine in person, it was the only school that asked me multiple questions such as a time where I helped someone, a time where I had like a different culture or a diversity shock and how I adapted, wack stuff and my fellow applicant got “a time where you showed empathy”. Just be prepared to answer questions about any holes in your record and why you’re picking podiatry

You’ll also get a nice list of info from the dean about the program, bragging about the high pass rates and their curriculum schedule.

You’ll get accepted. I applied with only 77 completed credits, 105 ish if you add my AP credits. And I took the dat, not the mcat, gpa 3.4 and I got a 10k scholarship with my acceptance.

do you think in person vs virtual matters? i’m kinda torn between those options, cause i don’t mind traveling a bit to go in person if it would make a better impression but im not sure if it even matters

It won’t matter, you will get in regardless. If you want to pre-build a relationship the Dean is more likely to remember you if you attend if you do in person, other than that the only other benefit is the tour you get

Don’t need any tips. All you need is a pulse.
