Mags Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Thought I would start this forum to hear some feedback from other applicants. I submitted my supplement the day I received it on 6/3, and received a confirmation email that evening. Today, I received another email with instructions on how to do the supplement. I contacted the school to inform them, and they said to disregard today's email... Did this happen to anyone else!? It makes me veryyy anxious.

DaddyPig Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 I applied as well and received the request for the supplemental app pretty quickly. They are the only school I have heard from so far, though only for the supplemental app. Good luck everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jol79 Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 Would you guys mind sharing when you were CASPA verified, and how soon after that you received the supplemental link. I was verified on June 9th and applied to the UNC program but have not received the link yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaddyPig Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 I applied May 25 and expect to be verified some time next week. I received the supplemental email request from them about a week after I applied. There is not much to the application other than some basic demographic info and paying $85.

Mags Posted June 22, 2015 Author Share Posted June 22, 2015 I was verified by CASPA 5/26 and received the supplemental email (the first time) 6/3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brandiavis Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 I was verified May 22 according to CASPA but was told via email that UNC hadn't received my app until June 5. Still have yet to receive the supp app unless it somehow got erased from my email. I'm sure they're crazy busy trying to start up in January!

PAhopeful123 Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Is this program for veterans only? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PinkPeonies Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 Applied Mid- June and have yet to receive a supplemental application email. Anyone else submit and not receive an email yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cjbwiley Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 I applied mid-June as well and have not received the supplemental app yet. I am under the impression the program is not only for Veterans but you have more of a chance if you are a Vet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PinkPeonies Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 Cjbwiley, have you received the supplemental yet? I called and they said they would look into it but have yet to get back to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brandiavis Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 I haven't received it yet either. What number did you call to actually get a person on the line? Every time I call I get a voicemail telling me they'll call back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PinkPeonies Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 Brandiavis, I called the number on the website. I guess it depends on what time you call because I called again and got the voicemail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cjbwiley Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 I did receive it. However, it was really weird. I went back through my email and it was there but dated before I even submitted my application so I don't know when I actually got it. Has anyone else heard back about interviews?

JetéToPA Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 I also got an email from UNC on 7/7 with a link to the supplemental app, but I didn't submit my application to CASPA until 7/8 and it was verified on 7/20. Anyway, I have not heard back about any interviews yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mags Posted August 1, 2015 Author Share Posted August 1, 2015 According to the website under the FAQ: Applicants selected for an interview are required to be in Chapel Hill for one day during the week of October 19-23. I was told applicants would be notified in early October and would only have a short time to make arrangements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NC30 Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 ^^^ Yep. As far as I know UNC won't be sending out interview invites until after the ARC-PA accreditation decision in September. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AG25 Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 Do you know when that vote will take place? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PinkPeonies Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 ARC-PA meets Sept 10-12. I would think it would take UNC at least a couple weeks to get their ducks in a row before they start making interview offers. So I would imagine offers going out last week of Sept or early Oct to interview the week of Oct 19-23. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adeaton115 Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 The website states that if you are selected you will be notified within 48 hours of the close of the application. I think that means that we should hear back Oct 1-3? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NicoleS88 Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 Has anyone interviewed here or are they accepting without interviewing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adeaton115 Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 The interviews are the week of the 18th in October and I believe they are notifying everyone that is being offered an interview oct 1-3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
had1118 Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 I never received a supplemental application email as others have stated above. I did fill out supplemental CASPA info?? Should I contact the school? I already have once to make sure they had received all necessary documentation and they said they looked forward to reviewing my application. Just hoping I haven't missed an email. Good luck to everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GatorChomp Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Just received an e-mail outlining their accreditation status. They must be gearing up to extend invites. The e-mail states: "Accreditation The ARC-PA has been granted Accreditation-Provisional status to the University of North Carolina at Chapel Physician Assistant Program sponsored by University of North Carolina School of Medicine. Accreditation - Provisional is an accreditation status granted when the plans and resource allocation, if fully implemented as planned, of a proposed program that has not yet enrolled students appear to demonstrate the program’s ability to meet the ARC-PA Standards or when a program holding Accreditation-Provisional status appears to demonstrate continued progress in complying with the Standards as it prepares for the graduation of the first class (cohort) of students. Accreditation - Provisional does not ensure any subsequent accreditation status. Accreditation - Provisional is limited to no more than five years from matriculation of the first class. Accreditation-provisional remains in effect until the program achieves accreditation-continued after its third review, closes or withdraws from the accreditation process, or until accreditation is withdrawn for failure to comply with the Standards."
