Thank you for your input TaiyangShen! You're right, it seems last year most of the applicants who have been interviewed heard back in a week. Thank you for your kind wishes! I really liked the program...and everyone were so nice and helpful making the whole experience enjoyable.

Good luck to you too and I'll definitely keep you posted! PS: Any other inputs will be highly appreciated, thanks!

Hey everyone interviewing in the future! The day was very relaxed, we had a tour, completed a very laid back writing essay in 30 minutes, then did 1 on 1 interviews to finish the day.

Thanks for a very quick reply and you have very impressive credentials . I talked to David Woods today as I appled very late in the cycle and he mentioned that we have not sent any acceptance letter to anyone so far . It might take some time but you will get it .

Total no of seats for this year has not been finalized so 40 might not be the right no ...it can be more than that also

Hey Ya'll!  I got invited to interview at this school and I am trying to decide if I should go.  I am from SC and all these interviews are getting very expensive.  I got accepted into another program in philly that wasn't my top choice, but I liked the school.  Can anyone who has been to the interview or toured the campus tell me what they really liked about it?  Or are there any current students to give input?  I haven't heard much about this program.  Also, does anyone know if there are any spots left?  It is kind of late in the cycle.

Hey! I interview on October 5th (the first day of interviews) and I have yet to hear back. I was under the impression we would hear back within 3-4 weeks through the mail. TJU is my top choice and this makes me very anxious! @prepastudent11 I am shocked you heard back and only interviewed two days ago, was this by email or US snail mail?

 

@Enigma, have you heard back yet?

[Enigma]

AspiringPA11, still anxiously waiting ????

@Enigma When you had your interview how long did they tell you it would take to hear back and by what means? I have written down 3-4 weeks but I remembered them saying 2-3 weeks. 

[Enigma]

AspiringPA11,

I've been told to wait 3-6 weeks. It's awfully long time to wait :(

[prepastudent11]

@lizz2152 @AspiringPA11
 

It was via e-mail that I received my acceptance. They did say in the interview that it would take 3-4 weeks. Also they mentioned there would be about 50 spots this year.

Hi everyone! I got an email yesterday stating that I'm on waitlis. Not really sure what my chances are? Has anyone heard of anyone getting accepted off the waitlist from last year's class?How the wait list work anywhere? Will this give me some security for next year? I'm perplexed ...

[mm7711]

Enigma,

 

At my interview they said a majority of interviewees are placed on the waitlist. Over 40% of last year's class came from the waitlist. Hope this helps!
