GatorChomp Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 This is for the new MPAS program at Mary Baldwin College in Fishersville, Virginia. The program is looking to induct an inaugural class of no more than 45 students. Just received my interview invite for November 10th, 2014! Anyone else applied?

Dmani002 Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Hey guys, for those of you thinking about attending Mary Baldwin, I think it would be a great idea. I grew up about 20 minutes away and my fiance graduated from MBC. I had a chance to meet the faculty at an open house and thought that they were all great. The program director has a GREAT history in the profession, so I have no doubt that it that MBC's PA program wouldnt be anything but top notch. Also, the new Murphy Deming College of Health Science building is great. I applied to MBC, but was accepted at South in Savannah, which has an earlier start date, vs MBC which doesnt start until fall of 2017. Its about 40 minutes from Charlottesville and 10 minutes from Staunton, both of which are really cool towns with a lot to offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scumpik89 Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 The interviews were very relaxed! The presentation and the tour were very helpful in getting to know the school and what they're about. I really enjoyed it. Everyone was incredibly nice. As for accreditation... It's a brand new program and I have no doubt they'll get it with flying colors. Are you worried about it, Henna_Zehra? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was worried before only because it seemed a bit risky, but after hearing such great things, I'm more relaxed about it! I wish you nothing but the best of luck. Seems as if they are quick at sending acceptance letters:) do you know how many spots are still open currently? I have my interview all the way in November Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scumpik89 Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 I don't know how many spots are still open, but I know they're only taking 35 students this cohort. They want room to grow. Good luck to you too!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scumpik89 Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 Thanks everyone! Good luck with your interviews! There were about 10 people in total for the PA program. They also interviewed OT and PT people, so when I walked in to find about 25 people, I was taken aback. No worries, though. It was a lot of fun and very informative. What do you guys think about the accreditation issue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

megpvb2 Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 I just submitted CASPA today, 11/4! I applied to other schools back in May and was/am pretty discouraged so I looked at other schools and this one caught my eye since next year will be the first class! Hope some good news finally comes my way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

megpvb2 Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 GPA: 3.28 GRE: 1st-301, 2nd-308 Direct Patient Care: 1,556 and counting Health Care Shadowing: Shadowed ortho PA and observed 17 surgeries - 196 hours TxCC PA - 25 hours Fam med MD/ARNP - 15 hours I'm also a licensed Athletic trainer, and have my EMT-B cert. Unfortunately I think I jumped the gun on this school, and my psych prereqs may not count... I applied to 7 schools in May then this one in Nov, been denied 2 so far and no interview invites. It has been an agonizing wait to say the least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
