April_Louise Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 I received the call from Ted last night! It seems so surreal. Best of luck everyone, OHSU is a truly fantastic program and the interview process was designed to really get to know you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best of luck everyone, OHSU is a truly fantastic program and the interview process was designed to really get to know you. YAY, you made it! Congrats, that is truly an achievement. Did you do the September 10th interview? It's nice to know OHSU is prompt about letting you know if you're in or not. Any recommendations for me and others who are interviewing in the next couple weeks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

April_Louise Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 I don't know if it is possible, but I wish I could have felt more relaxed. They just want to get to know you and learn what you will bring to the class. They emphasize that those interviewing with you are not your competition , they want to see that you are a team player and that you value others perspectives and backgrounds. They don't ask you any silly questions about how we should solve our worlds healthcare system. The 1:1 portion is tailored to you and they ask questions regarding your application and so forth. I felt doing a mock interview was the best thing I did to help prepare since OHSU was my first pa school interview experience. And yes, I did interview on September 10th. Best of luck!

Medlifr Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 Has anyone else gotten a call from Ted? It's been a few weeks since the interview and I'm curious about acceptance calls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoopeda Posted October 3, 2014 Author Share Posted October 3, 2014 Admissions mentioned they'll likely make a bunch of decisions the week of the 9th. Killer wait! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NLRP3 Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 How do you know? Did you call? Hopefully that will include those who interviewed on Oct. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoopeda Posted October 3, 2014 Author Share Posted October 3, 2014 Yes, I called. They said the tentative date for the meeting is Oct 9. That will include reviews of anyone who has interviewed up until that point. (That last bit they told us at the interview.) If an applicant is not accepted or rejected at that time, his or her app will continue to sit in the review pile for consideration at future monthly meetings. The goal is approximately one round of decisions per month. Good luck to all... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Merlins Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 Well, I found out today that I've been rejected for a second time. CASPA was verified on 8/12/14, and apparently everyone is getting notified via email this year. Congrats to those who have been accepted though. Better luck for me next cycle...
