pdbhakta Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 Well, I figured I would start one up for this program! I wish everyone luck on the upcoming cycle, and may the odds be ever in your favor! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCPE5 Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 All my materials were received by UTMB last week, so I'm excited for this process to get going. Best of luck to all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spypharmd Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 Does anyone know how long the "status" under the mystar portal stays as INCOMPLETE? My supplemental was received by UTMB on 06/23. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sk8er2004 Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 Does anyone know how long the "status" under the mystar portal stays as INCOMPLETE? My supplemental was received by UTMB on 06/23. It took about week for me after they received everything, including the supp app. With the holiday I'm sure it will change this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tuxedosheep Posted July 6, 2016 Share Posted July 6, 2016 Received an email stating "Your application is now in the Physician Assistant Studies Department for review. Please allow several weeks to months for the review process." Submitted early May, supp app complete early June. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

n577 Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 My CASPA was submitted a few weeks ago, as was my supplemental, but I never got any log in information for the mystar portal. I did receive an email that both were received by the admissions office. Has this happened to anyone else? Should I contact them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hannahmjoseph Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 My CASPA was submitted a few weeks ago, as was my supplemental, but I never got any log in information for the mystar portal. I did receive an email that both were received by the admissions office. Has this happened to anyone else? Should I contact them? I got my supplemental on June 27th and submitted it that day. I emailed enrollment services just to get a timeframe and they said that because of the 4th of July weekend, they are a little behind. I was told to anticipate up to 10 business days. I am probably going to wait another week and see if anything changes, and if not I may send another email. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAapplicant2017 Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 I had the same issue with not getting the login information. I called and they said the same thing to me about being behind because of the holiday, but today I ended up getting the e-mails. Supplementary submitted June 20.

pa_pride Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 The lost paperwork and delays are common here. I dealt with it when I applied and they even lost my paperwork and I had to resubmit some. Just stay on them! I think they get overwhelmed since we have so much staff turnover. Patience is the key. Don't expect it to be better once you get in though. It often feels like we are left to figure out everything on our own. We often rely on other classmates to pass down information because the staff is bad at that. Feel free to ask me any questions!

tmc2016 Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 I received the complete status on mySTAR portal probably beginning to mid-July, but I have not received an email that said, "Your application is now in the Physician Assistant Studies Department for review." Should I have received an email stating my application is under review? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gcox87 Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 I received the complete status on mySTAR portal probably beginning to mid-July, but I have not received an email that said, "Your application is now in the Physician Assistant Studies Department for review." Should I have received an email stating my application is under review? I imagine they get sent as they are being reviewed. Both people who stated getting that email applied in early may. I'd suggest to hang tight for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCPE5 Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 To give you a detailed time frame: I was verified in mid May, got all the myStar stuff taken care of the first week of June, got a "supplemental received" e-mail in mid June, and got that "under review" e-mail July 5th. So, just hang in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tuxedosheep Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 Received an invitation to interview via email today for Monday, August 29th! Very pumped! Message me if you're also going, and maybe we can exchange numbers. See y'all there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tannn Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 Congrats to the both of you! Just curious, when did you guys submit your CASA and supplemental application? Edit: Nevermind, just read your previous posts in this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n.pa Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 Congratulations to all of you who have been invited for an interview! Submitted: June 14 Verified: June 16 Supplemental app submitted: June 22 MyStar: June 26 Has anyone with similar dates heard back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GetMeOuttaThisMess Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 My, how things change. Used to be two winter interview weekends a couple of weeks apart each year, you stayed with first year students, and class sizes were MUCH smaller. You just submitted your application directly to the program and waited. As us old folks like to say, "Life was much simpler then". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aty001 Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 So i received the myStar stuff a while ago, and there was nothing in the "to-do" section of it, but reading these comments it sounds like we were supposed to do something on mystar? Were we supposed to fill out a survey or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Were we supposed to fill out a survey or something?From what I remember (this was almost a couple months ago for me), once you have your MyStar, you're done. That means they've received your supplemental application. As long as made sure they have your GRE through CASPA and it's all verified, you should be done to just wait.

tmc2016 Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 Just got an e-mail inviting me to interview. This is the best day. I will be interviewing August 29 as well!! I was looking on UTMB's website and it mentioned something about writing an essay the day of the interview. Do you know anything about the essay, such as what the topic may be or if they still have interviewees write the essay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gcox87 Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 Congrats to everyone getting interview invites!! I am applying next cycle for the first time, and would much appreciate if you guys can "chance" me on getting an interview with these stats? It's hard to ask the general forum because all schools are different. Biology major, Texas resident Age:21 GPA: 3.9 GRE: math 152, verbal 148 HCE: 800 hours as an EMS scribe Volunteer:200 hours in undeserved clinic Not much involvement in school clubs. Thanks again& Goodluck on everyone's application this round! Sent from my SM-G920I using Tapatalk Hi emily, I don't think anyone can truthfully chance you but yourself. Each school looks for different things and that changes from year to year. Your grades look fine but your gre is below the "coveted" 150 150 range. LoR also play a big part in getting an interview. also, it depends on how early you apply. The only thing you can do is apply and hope for the best. Good luck!
