MLStoPA Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 I applied early, CASPA was verified June 3rd, and I received an email saying my app was received on June 10th. Haven't heard anything since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ls419 Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 I know this may seem like a silly question but can anyone attest to or comment on how this program integrates being a faith based institution in to their PA program. I am not Christian nor am I religious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dndandrea Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Did anyone start receiving calls from Kettering yet? I just got called for an interview. However, I'm still missing OCHEM II and BIOCHEM... They were not on my future schedule in CASPA. Why would they call me for an invite? Are they just calling everyone for invites or do I actually have a chance if I pick these 2 classes up last minute? I would have to switch my whole schedule, but it is possible. I just don't want to do this if I didn't really deserve an invite and end up getting turned down even if I do take the classes. Are invites sent out to everyone who met the prereqs, or did my application stand out to them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are invites sent out to everyone who met the prereqs, or did my application stand out to them? I'm not sure what their reasoning was... what I do know is I was called earlier today for an interview also but I do meet all the prerequisite requirements so it's hard for me to say. I would suggest you definitely call for more information but if it were me I would switch my schedule to make it :-) Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PA2017:) Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 Wow, a call instead of an email! i'll have to answer unknown callers now. For those who got an interiew when did you submit your caspa? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dndandrea Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Today I was told that invites are only being sent out to 100-150 competitive applicants. Then ~40 people will be accepted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OHPA2017 Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 I have an interview next week and don't have OCHEM II done either and plan to take it in the spring. I know if I was offered a seat and accepted, I would have to take my final early for O CHEM since the semester ends May 9th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kelmhsiu Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Accepted!! Received notification via email this afternoon! Congratulations! What was the interview process like at Kettering? I have heard small group activity and two individual interviews. Any insight? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbh2 Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 That's exactly right. Also an essay that was very straight forward. The first personal interview I had I did not feel like it went very well, all of the questions had a negative spin such as "name a time you failed...", "how would your worst enemy describe you" so answering those questions were kind of hard but they said just be yourself so try to give honest responses and you'll be fine... Overall everyone was very welcoming and the program was impressive! Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OHPA2017 Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 Accepted!! Received notification via email this afternoon! Congratulations! When did you interview? I interviewed there on Tuesday 10/9. Were you in that group or a different one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I appreciate your input in the above response, but I would like to peg you for more information - did they ask specific questions regarding your personal statement, GPA, or health care experience? And most importantly, did they ask the dreaded "Why do you want to be a PA" question? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbh2 Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 I interviewed on September 30th. They didn't ask any questions about my GPA, HCE or personal statement but I used examples during my interview so expect to talk about it. Also they did ask why I want to be a PA, but I think that's pretty standard for all interviews so make sure you articulate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LS_USAF Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 Yay! I recieved an interview invitation via phone call. Did anyone get a confirmation email with more information about the day or area? Can anyone give more information on when you arrived where you went, how the day flowed, ect? Thanks!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can anyone give more information on when you arrived where you went, how the day flowed, ect? Thanks!! Congrats on the interview invite. The day for my interview started at 1230ish at the Boonscroft Building. I went in, there was a reception to the left and you checked in there and waited on everyone else to arrive. Then 2 students took you on a tour and answered your questions. Then they took you around 1pm to the main interview area. You were in there for around 3 hours then most of the faculty came in, introduced themselves and you asked questions with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OHPA2017 Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 Received my acceptance email this morning! Good luck to everyone else! Congrats dndandrea! I received a "still in consideration" email this morning so more waiting but at least it wasn't a flat out no. Good luck to everyone else! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbh2 Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Congrats dndandrea! Just wanted to pass along that when you get the acceptance letter, the official white letter from admissions says return the acceptance form to the PA department but the purple form says return to student accounts. I called Mary and she said to send it to student accounts. They may correct the wording by the time you get the letter though but it's worth noting :-) Good luck ohioAT2010, they mention they wait list a lot at the beginning so I'm sure you still have great odds!

ohioheat9 Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Submitted my application Sept. 1st and interviewed on Oct. 7th. Received a "still in consideration" email about 2 weeks after my interview. Still crossing my fingers! Does anyone know when the last interview date is scheduled?

I heard through a friend that interviewed that they told him that this past Wednesday was the last interview date and then everyone that was still in consideration, would be notified of final decisions soon after. I am hoping it is in the next few weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
