IOWA: St. Ambrose University 2016-2017
FrenchieBee2018 replied to FrenchieBee2018's topic in IOWA: St. Ambrose University
I was third on the wait list. From what I understand, they took 5 people off the waitlist for my class. The waitlist is 30 people, I believe. As I understand, they have completed interviews. This is different than last year where they spread them out through January. I'd like to think that they'll try and let you know before Christmas but we complete finals on Wednesday and will be on break until Jan 9. g Waiting is the hardest part, but hang in there! It was lovely meeting some of you in the tours! Very impressive groups! -

I wouldn't worry about your stats as they look fine. We don't interview until November and you have a lot of time yet. If you are worried about not hearing from Ambrose then It is likely because we have been busy the last couple of weeks with the ARC-PA accreditation committee. They just left today. The wait sucks but hang in there. -

Call Angie to be sure but my class has to submit directly to the PA program. -

To be honest, if you see the DMU class average stats, those are compatible to Ambrose. Half our class got wait listed at DMU. Me personally, I had a 3.7 cumulative, 3.4 science, 305 GRE, and 1800 or so hrs of PCE experience at the time of application. My PCE was an an ICU CNA. I think I did about 22 hrs of shadowing. -

I received my interview in January. They don't start offering interviews until after the deadline which I think is November. They do most of their interviewing Starting in late November through end of February. -
Greetings! I'm a current PA student at Ambrose and noticed there isn't a forum for this application cycle! If you have questions about the program or anything, hit me up! Good luck to all of you!

Ditto nic28. They don't ask similar questions again to simply get a reworked personal statement. Use a topic you wanted to include in your personal statement or expand upon something in the statement. Every essay question should allow the adcom to learn something new about you :-) Look at it this way, the more opportunities you have to talk yourself up in different ways, the better. Those secondaries can often make the difference between getting (or not getting) and interview. :-) Good luck!

Anybody getting pulled from the waitlist?

FYI I was told the admissions committee is meeting the week of the 20th and then they will be informing everyone on the wait list after that.
-
I got in today!
-
Did you receive any communication about where you were on this list? I was told they would email out tiers in March. Congrats to you! I'm sitting on two waitlists right now.
-
FYI, the waitlist has been bumped up a spot.
-
They ask the kinds of questions you would expect at any interview. The experience is SUPER laid back. They really just want to get to know you as a person.
-
Wow, really? That seems SO late. Good luck to you! I suppose they haven't filled the class yet. I interviewed in November and got waitlisted then.
-
I'm not sure. I sort of assume that the waitlist is at least half as many students as the accepted class. So, since they have a class of 30, I would think they would keep at least 15 people on the waitlist. At least that's how I would do it seeing as how people will ditch a seat if they get off the waitlist for their dream school.
