[evmspahopeful]

To those still waiting, keep your head up high.  I believe if its meant to be, it'll happen.  And then if not, keep trying!! This is my second year applying and finally, the dream has come reality.

 

Never give up!!!

 

Good luck to all! Cannot wait to meet everyone!! Go PA Class of 2018!!

I wish I knew how to do that!! Any thoughts Class of 2017?? We are trying to make a group page for Class of 2018.

On your home page, look to your left. You'll see a side bar full of links. Click "Create Group" 

 

I'd make one, but I haven't sent in my deposit yet (figuring out logistics) so if I'm an admin, I'll have to pass off the facebook duty!

[mkvb]

Wouldn't the admin of the group need to know the names of all those accepted in order to know how to allow into the group?  I could do it if I could figure that out

[DStillwagon]

Fyi, for anyone still in limbo, Dr Parish said the next round of acceptances will go out approximately 10 days after the first batch.

[mvs 1]

I remember one of the current students saying that they received an email thanking them for interviewing prior to receiving an acceptance or denial email. Did anyone receive that this year? I haven't so I worried about a glitch in email (wishful thinking).

I did not receive a thank you email like last year, just an acceptance email on Wed.

[CHjohansson]

Congratulations to everyone who has received an offer letter so far! I look forward to meeting you all in January. If you haven't received an offer letter, stay positive you might get one in the second round! 

[firstnamehere]

Congrats on getting in guys I look forward to seeing you all come January!

 

As far as the FB group goes, Name it MPA Class of 2018 and refrain from including EVMS in the group name and mentioning it at all really (haha) because the EVMS media ppl will find it and do who knows what to it.

I am making a Facebook group now under the name MPA Class of 2018. If you have accepted a seat request to join (as it will be a closed group) and I will add you. Exciting!!!

Congratulations to everyone who was accepted. I still have not heard . I am so nervous. How many were accepted the first round? Did you get an email and a phone call?

I don't know how many they send out the first round- but those people have until 8/1 to send in a deposit. After that, they will probably send the second round of invites. At the interview they said anywhere from 7-14 days, but first round people heard back within 4. Give it time :)

Julyspain,

 

This morning, I received a mass email from the financial aid office. There were about 70 email addresses on the distro ...

 

I was notified of acceptance through email ... no phone calls.

According to Ugamini, the second round of acceptances went out this morning. Is that right Ugamini?

[Julyspain]

Ugmini, thank you for reply. I submitted my Fasfa last week to err on the side of caution. Did you by chance see my email on it (julyspain21@yahoo.com)? In the meantime, I will continue to pray that I get accepted into this wonderful program.

 

Best regards,

 

Julio

I did not see your email in the distro.

 

Hang in there. Odds are that there will be at least one more round of admission invites to get the class up to 80 students.

No. It seems he was referring to an email he received yesterday regarding Financial Aid.

 

If you look on page 6, he was accepted in the first batch. I do not believe the second batch has gone out yet as the deadline for the first batch to confirm has not passed.

 

What he was stating was that he saw ~70 emails on the financial aid email, possibly implying that that is how many invites that have gone out, or how many invites have been accepted. It is still not clear as it is not necessarily the case that all accepted applicants receive an email regarding financial aid. So, it could mean a few things:

 

1. 70 invites were sent out in the first wave, an unknown amount have confirmed.

2. 70+ invites were sent out, and 70 people have already confirmed.

3. Nothing, the amount of people on that list who received a financial aid email is unrelated to acceptance emails.

[bmyers22]

So the deadline to respond to the first round of acceptances was Saturday and now it's been 2 weeks.  Has anyone heard anything or know when we will?

[PAboi04]

I have not heard anything yet either. Keeping my fingers crossed.

[Julyspain]

Still holding my breath. Let's keep the faith! If it's meant to be we shall all get in and become friends and colleagues.

[firstnamehere]

If you haven't gotten decline letters yet then they are still sending out invites. I think some of our class was still getting invites into August.

[DStillwagon]

Historically the second round goes out after 10 days. If you assume that's 10 business days like I do, then this Wednesday number 2 should go out.

[catsandmedicine]

I interviewed at EVMS on July 17. I know the first wave of admissions have gone out. How many waves are there? When is the latest wave? Will they notify me if I am not accepted??? Please help!
