Gerrly Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Sorry to hear, but it's not terrible. I have heard you'll basically be guaranteed an interview if you apply next year (if you aren't picked off the waiting list this year). I haven't heard any stats for how many people are picked off it... probably depends on how many people don't accept the admissions offer year-to-year. One poster, earlier in this thread, said at least a few of his classmates were from the waiting list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamieh Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 Just found out this morning I have an interview for this Friday! Can anyone tell me what their interview experience was like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerrly Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 Nice! The interview is structured, meaning they have questions prepared for you and ask you one after another. I didn't find that it was conversational at all. I'm not sure if they always ask the same questions (my guess is no), but they definitely always ask you why you want to be a PA, so you must have that answer down without hesitation.

jamieh Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 Interviewed today and loved it! Everyone was so nice and I was really impressed with the facilities. Hoping I get in...that would be a great Christmas present haha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerrly Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 I know, wouldn't it?! I interviewed 3 weeks ago yesterday. Hoping to hear positive news soon! Good luck to you, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerrly Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 Ugh. Wait list. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamieh Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 At the interview, they said we would find out by letter no matter what but I heard of some students from other years saying they got a phone call. Do they still do this or is it just by letter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerrly Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Oh, you only get a phone call if you're picked off the waiting list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atabone22 Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 I called Pcom last week about the packet coming in the mail. They said we will be receiving an email in January instead of a packet in the mail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamieh Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Can anyone who's heard back give an idea of how long they waited to hear after the interview? I know they told us 4-6 weeks but some people it seems have heard earlier so I'm just wondering! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atabone22 Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 I heard back within 2 weeks after my interview! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerrly Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 3 weeks, 1 day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerrly Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Before I got my letter in the mail, I went back and tracked how long it took everyone to get their responses (from this year and prior). Avg was like 2-4 weeks. One year people were getting them less than 2 weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jnole Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Jamieh I interviewed the same day as you and I just got an acceptance today. Good Luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kprobasco Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 I heard back almost a month to the exact day of my interview! I submitted my deposit and have sent emails releasing my seat at other programs... I am officially attending PCOM's PA school! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patel_PA Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Does anyone know if PCOM is still interviewing or how many seats are left? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nospin29 Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 Patel, yes PCOM still is interviewing. I have no clue how many seats are still open though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kym42 Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 I was told they interview until February by various sources @patel_PA I was last minute on my supplemental app, so still waiting to here something too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ags Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 I sent in my application in October and haven't heard anything- I can see they've received everything, including the supplemental application, but have heard nothing. I guess that means I didn't get in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LCV2105 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 I haven't heard anything from PCOM either. I guess I should assume the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamiehalap Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Anyone heard anything from the waitlist yet? I know they start orientation next week. I was told a few weeks ago we won't hear anything until the week of orientation (I'm guessing if someone drops or switches during the first week) but I'm dying to know, as PCOM is my first choice!
