jlbrooks321 Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 I figured I would go ahead and start this topic. I should be finalizing my CASPA by this or next Friday and have pretty much completed the supplemental. I am trying to apply early this year, as I applied late September last cycle and was interviewed but ultimately rejected. I'm hoping that by getting it in earlier my odds will be better- fingers crossed. Any other reapplicants out there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lablover Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 I'm a first time applicant and submitted everything about 2 weeks ago. So excited for the next few months, good luck to everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CritCarePAmom Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Has anyone heard anything yet? I just recently applied, but am curious about the timeline as some schools can take so long!! Also is anyone applying to dual degree PA/MPH? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fakingpatience Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 How did you get access to the supplemental application? CASPA says it's online, but I'm having trouble finding it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trigator Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Go here: https://med.emory.edu/pa/admissions/supplemental_application.html They have had some formatting issues on the supplemental the last two years, but you should be able to fill it out.

jmurph Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 For those of you that have completed the supplemental, did you write an additional narrative? Or did you use the one from your CASPA app? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fakingpatience Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Thanks trigator! Jmurph, I'm working on it now, but it specifically says not to use the CASPA one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trigator Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Thanks trigator! Jmurph, I'm working on it now, but it specifically says not to use the CASPA one No problem. Definitely don't use your CASPA narrative. They will already have access to that with your original application. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmurph Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 Thanks everyone, I just looked it over briefly. I should have examined it closer before I asked! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GatorChomp Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 Supplemental submitted August 4th! Now we play the waiting game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTNPA Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 Just wanted to post I received a denial e-mail a couple weeks ago. I was told I needed to knock out my pre-reqs as soon as I could to pull up my GPA above a 3.0. (Which I am currently doing), and to re-apply next cycle. (I have well over 10,000 hrs of paid exp, shadowing hrs, and would be finished with pre-reqs before the 2015 program started which is why I decided to go ahead and apply.) Just curious if anyone else had heard anything either way. I know other people that have applied and haven't heard anything yet, so maybe that's a good thing for them. Thanks!

Katelyne Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 Hey TNRT! Thank you so much for sharing. Sorry about the news you received though. Have you applied elsewhere? You experience is competitive! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kcaldwell Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Hi, has anyone received a response from Emory? I applied in April and haven't heard anything. I am curious if anyone has been invited for an interview. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kcaldwell Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 @jlbrooks321 how long after you applied did it take for Emory to notify you regarding the interview? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlbrooks321 Posted August 7, 2014 Author Share Posted August 7, 2014 Last year I was a little later applying. I think I turned in the supplemental around September, and was offered a January interview mid-November. If I recall correctly, they do the first round of interviews in October. (Could be November. I'd have to go back and look at last year's forum for exact answer.) I think someone will hear something in the next 3-4 weeks at the latest. Last year they offered interviews via email so keep your eyes peeled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katelyne Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 @kcaldwell, did you get an email saying your application was complete? I got one shortly after I submitted my supplemental. Other than that email, I have not heard anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kcaldwell Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 @katelyne I received an email stating my application was complete but that was the last thing I heard. Having to wait is soooo nerve wrecking!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RabSaddles Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Just want to check to see if anyone has heard anything yet. It has been almost 4 weeks since I received my "your application is complete" email. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kcaldwell Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Nope, I haven't. The waiting is the worst. At this point, I feel like I wasn't accepted. :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RabSaddles Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 I know me too. I feel like if I haven't heard back by the one month mark I'm not in the top rankings and it will be a long wait for an interview if I get one at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geauxpa Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Just wanted to let all of you guys know...I worked with a current Emory PA-S. She received her invite late August two years ago.

fakingpatience Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 Did anyone have trouble filling out the supplemental application? Where it says "click here to enter text" doesn't do anything when I click on some of them (others I am able to type and enter the text. Is there any easy fix for this?

I had the same problem and after many attempts, I found that you can just press tab to get to the next box. I hope that helps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
komybim Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 I received my interview invite today, so don't lose hope even if it has been over a month! I received confirmation for my completed application (supplemental included) on June 24th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
