M_G_N Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 I hope this helps.....My application was verified July 26th and I sent my application to SHUPA program on Friday, July 27th. I heard back August 3rd regarding my application being processed. I was invited to an interview on September 27th. I submitted mine on Sep 21 and haven't even received an email saying my application is being processed. Should I call them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sk8er2004 Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 I submitted mine on Sep 21 and haven't even received an email saying my application is being processed. Should I call them? It took about 3 weeks after I was verified by CASPA to hear back from the program. You could wait another week or call them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IIBlades Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 I will no longer be attending my interview on 11/13. Hopefully this opens up a spot for someone. Best of luck to everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

healthtraveler Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 I submitted mine on Sep 21 and haven't even received an email saying my application is being processed. Should I call them? Did you ever receive a confirmation email about your app? I submitted a few days after you and was wondering about the timeline as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cprop16 Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 I have an 8:30 interview. The advice that I have gotten is to prepare the basic questions such as: What is a PA/What is the role of a PA? Why do I want to be a PA? etc... I have been preparing to speak on my service and patient care experiences. I've been reviewing ethical questions and scenarios. Mostly, I've been working on the fluidity of my answers as well as being consistent. I've been told to review my application and essay (it may seem obvious that we should know everything we put on our application however, I wrote my essay months ago and have edited it numerous times before submitting it so I do not remember every detail). These are just general pieces of advice I've been given. I hope this helps you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrsmarks02 Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 Hi guys (and gals), current student here. I won't go into a whole lot of detail- because it wouldn't be fair :) - but for those of you with an interview JUST BE YOURSELF. The interview is largely based off of determining who you all are as people, as well as your passion for the field. It is a very straight forward process and the faculty are very welcoming. Remember, you have made it to the interview based on who you are on paper...now show them who you are in person. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twonfields Posted November 6, 2016 Share Posted November 6, 2016 Hey everyone, interviewed last year. It is a great format, assuming they follow the same as last year. The people I had were great, Just be yourself, I know you will be so nervous, just breathe, speak from the heart and you will nail it. Congrats to everyone who has an interview, and to those who haven't heard anything, there is plenty of time, and plenty more sessions. Good luck to everyone.

sexenian Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 Hi everyone! Just received an interview invite for either December or January. Excited but extremely nervous! I've read some of the posts about previous interviews and feel a bit more relaxed. Just need to do a lot more research about the program itself. Good luck to everyone!!

MarkMass Posted November 17, 2016 Author Share Posted November 17, 2016 Hi everyone! Just received an interview invite for either December or January. Excited but extremely nervous! I've read some of the posts about previous interviews and feel a bit more relaxed. Just need to do a lot more research about the program itself. Good luck to everyone!! Congrats. Just like other members said, the faculty are awesome and down to earth. They already know you are great on paper and want to make sure you're a human who can communicate serious medical information to patients. Don't try to BS them or show off in a group activity. Its all about communication and teamwork. Only other advice is know about their program, why you want to go there, and how you fit into what they are seeking.
