jdpeters541 Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Hey all, I just got my phone call from Margia about a month ago to inform me of my interview invitation, and I was wondering if any one else is going to be at the RMC interview on 9/26?? Let me know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jstree2 Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 Hey jdpeters! I have an interview on October 3rd. I'm coming from Chicago, how about you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdpeters541 Posted September 22, 2014 Author Share Posted September 22, 2014 I'm coming from Central Oregon! There is a recent graduate named Kate Willis who did a rotation at the hospital here in Bend and I had a chance to talk to her quite a bit about the program. She had nothing but great things to say about the faculty, her classmates and also the campus. She took her boards last week and she already has a hospitalist job lined up here in Bend!

jdpeters541 Posted November 18, 2014 Author Share Posted November 18, 2014 I interviewed Friday 9/26, got an email the following Tuesday and I was placed on the alternate list! I just wish they would tell me more about where I stood on that list or what kind of chances I have of being offered a seat... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hage0423 Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Anyone else out there committed to starting Rocky in July? Would be great to get in touch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAlaska Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 I gave my spot up in the program today. Hopefully one of you on the wait list will get good news soon! Good luck to all of you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angemazz14 Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 yeah I just gave up my spot the other day. Good luck everyone! Seems like a very nice program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jstree2 Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Does anyone know if they have a dissection cadaver lab or is it prosected? Or if there are actual cadavers available to PA students? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MontanaPA Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Current Rocky PA student here. Cadavers are prosected. There are cadavers available to the PA students and have been dissected in order to show relevant, pertinent structures. It's 4 weeks of A&P all day, 5 days per week. By the end, you'll be glad you didn't actually dissect the cadavers yourself. More time is then available during the year for learning actual medicine. Hope that helps.

jstree2 Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Awesome. Thank you for replying! Fingers crossed I get off the waiting list! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MontanaPA Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Yeah no problem. Let me know if you have any other questions. Lots of people get in from the waitlist, so don't fret :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jstree2 Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Trying not to! :) do you know if the class is full? Also, do you or any of your classmates receive any scholarships to help pay for school? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MontanaPA Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 I don't know if the class is full. Everything kind of shuffles once interviews are over and people make their final decisions about places...I know that probably 10 kids in the class got in off the active list(not exactly sure but I think it was around there). As far as scholarships go...you have to find those on your own. Most of us are on federal/grad plus loans. They give you more than enough loans to cover tuition and living. There are scholarships out there to apply for, but you have to do the work :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jstree2 Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 That makes sense. 10 seems like a lot for a 36 student class! Margia said the list will be ranked after the first week of March. Can't come soon enough! So far thats what I have been hearing from multiple programs is that you have to look for the scholarships yourself. Will definitely look out for those. Also, have you started your clinical rotations yet? I'm curious about how lenient they are with where you want to go and if you could set up your own rotation.

MontanaPA Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 They are pretty lenient on where you can go and have rotations all over. They will try to work with you if you have a preceptor that you would like to work with. They won't let you "set up" your own, but will contact a potential preceptor for you and try to make it work. They want you to get the best clinical experience possible and take your interests seriously! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
