July 9th - submitted CASPA July 11th - CASPA verified July 13th - CASPA mailed out July 31st - email from Quinnipiac saying they received my CASPA Aug 8th - interview invitation via email Sep 8th - interview date Still trying to figure out if anyone knows what their interview format is i.e. how many interviews? Are they one-on-one, group format? Do they have you write any essays? Let me know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackeric88 Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 Hey Lauren, I have an interview on Sept 8 at Quinnipiac. Unfortunately I have not heard anything about the format. Quinnipiac is my first interview and my first choice school so Im a little nervous. Are you going to the meet and greet on the 7th? Maybe i will see you there!

lola126 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Eric and Lauren... I also happen to be a Lauren and I'll be going to the early September interview as well and the meet and greet! Even though they say it's not required I certainly think it will help to attend and meet the students. I haven't seen anything about interview format from other posts. I imagine some form of single interview, group interview and essays, that seems the most common. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackeric88 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 I agree that going to the meet and greet is a good idea. Hopefully the first year students can give us some hints on what to expect during the interview. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ltuccelli Posted August 27, 2012 Author Share Posted August 27, 2012 Eric and other Lauren - congrats to you guys, I guess we will be seeing each other in a few weeks! I wonder how many people are in one interview session? I am going to the meet and greet as well, hoping it will be relaxed and helpful! Are you guys planning to bring any copies of transcripts or resumes? The email didn't mention it so I was not planning to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ltuccelli Posted August 27, 2012 Author Share Posted August 27, 2012 Jak, my co-worker has an interview on the 28th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lola126 Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Yes. From my experience interviewing for jobs and for other PA schools, you should always have a portfolio with you that contains transcripts, recc letters, resumes etc. You never know what they are going to ask you for.

Fat Albert Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Yes. From my experience interviewing for jobs and for other PA schools, you should always have a portfolio with you that contains transcripts, recc letters, resumes etc. You never know what they are going to ask you for. If they ask me for that they're going to be sh!t out of luck, given the fact that CASPA has all of my LORs and I've waived my right to view them.

blackeric88 Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 yea me to. I guess I could bring my resume but all of that info is already on my caspa. They should be sending us another email a week before the interview with info about the meet and greet. they might give us some more info about what to bring and the format of the interview.

ltuccelli Posted September 4, 2012 Author Share Posted September 4, 2012 So they said that there will be a "group exercise" in addition to the two formal interviews. Any ideas what that might entail? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m.rudawski Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Here is some information about the interview I have from the original EMAIL: Interviews are held on the North Haven campus throughout the fall semester. Interviews consist of being greeted by and mingling with current PA students, an in-depth group briefing by the program director and campus and facility tours given by current PA students. Additionally, half hour interviews will be conducted with various teams of PA faculty, preceptors, graduates, health science faculty and administration.
