WithLoveAriel Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Hi all! Congratulations on those who have received interview invites. I will be there October 25th as well and was wondering if any other people from out of town will be interviewing. I am going to book a room at the Holiday Inn with two beds for the evening of October 24th if anyone would like to room with me and split the cost. It's cheap as it is, but figured I'd try to be more savvy and propose the idea if anyone else is up for it. I promise I am a wholesome and relatively sane young lady.

Holly_Diana Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 I interviewed on July 22nd. I found everyone extremely informative and very pleasant to speak to. Looking forward to hearing from this program. Wish you all good luck!! I was at the July 22nd interview also! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holly_Diana Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Good Luck to everyone who is interviewing. :) As everyone has said it is really laid back and it is more of a "we want to get to know you a little more." Great experience overall! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VinceJaPa Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 Thank you Kep308 for your enthusiasm! Basically, they told me that I am lacking in Pa shadowing experience and 30 hours of community service. I do have experience shadowing an MD. I plead with them to allow me to rectify these minor patches. I'm already taking steps to fix this, and it can be corrected really fast. I'm awaiting their reply. I really hope they see that I have proved myself to be academically competant and have also proven to have good bedside manner from 6 years of HCE. I really do hope they look past minor -easy to correct technicallities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holly_Diana Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 I believe they have only offered a few. Most their decisions they make in December (that's what they said at the interview at least). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holly_Diana Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 I did. I applied for PA school back in 2011 when I was a junior in college and only 20. I was waitlisted then and took these past 3 years to gain more HCE, take the GRE and take additional prereqs to try and strengthen my GPA. So I reapplied this year pretty early and was offered acceptance just a few weeks after my interview. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

un_original Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 I received an interview invite last month for November 18th. They sent an itinerary with the invitation and it looks like a packed day. I am glad that they do a campus tour before the interview because it was hard to find information about the program online. Is the interview an individual or group interview? I am an in state resident with no GRE, sGPA 3.57, cGPA 3.71, volunteer EMT, volunteer resident care provider for hospice patients, 400 hours of interning for a surgeon, and extensive undergrad biology research. I am worried that I have not shadowed a PA specifically. There are a lot of things I think I really like about this school so I'm excited and hopeful!

I've heard only good things about the program. There is no requirement to 'shadow' but it is helpful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ichristine87 Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Congrats Holly and to those that have gotten accepted! I'm coming from California and have an interview for Dec. 2nd. It's going to be quite a weather shock for me! Also, it sounds as though my group may be the last one since decisions would be sent sometime the same month. Anyone else interviewing that day? I did. I applied for PA school back in 2011 when I was a junior in college and only 20.

ccellini Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 mmh2455 - I called and I think we are supposed to hear back before the holidays.

wilkins.britt143 Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 @ccellini Thanks for the update, I've been sitting on the edge of my seat but was too nervous to call them directly. Anyone know why the two week notification didn't work out with this interview cycle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
