USMC2PA Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 Had my interview on the 27th and had my acceptance call today from the medical director. Good luck everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJM17285 Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 Make sure you add yourselves to the Facebook group when you get accepted! https://www.facebook.com/groups/smu.mpa.classof2018/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpham75 Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 I also received an acceptance phone call from the medical director!! Woke up from a nap to the best news ever! Looking forward to meeting everyone!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xtian1989 Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 I kept blocking this "no caller id" phone call for the past two days! I finally decided to trust this private caller and to my surprise was Dr. Magaña offering me a seat for this year's cohort! I am very excited to begin the program and get to know my future peers! -Christian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexis_86 Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Does anyone know if the entire class been chosen and notified already? I interviewed 2/6 and haven't heard anything back yet. I know they said we would know by this week but it sounds like so many people have heard back already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ResplendentPA Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 For those that received acceptance- did your "no caller ID phone call" come from a strange number? Did it even have a number? I received a call from a really long number with no caller ID and hope I didn't miss anything! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seamonkeez3 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 I have a question regarding the curriculum. I am currently retaking ochem and molec bio to improve my gpa for the upcoming application cycle in case I wasn't accepted into PA school this year. However, I just found out about my acceptance to SMU and am debating whether I should drop these courses. Any current students out there like to provide some advice on the didactic year curriculum? Will it be beneficial to finish these courses (i.e. will any ochem and molec bio knowledge be of any direct use in the didactic yr or will i just be wasting my time?)

AJM17285 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 seamonkeez3, I just got accepted also, and I was taking a couple chemistry classes to raise my gpa for next semester, but as soon as I got into my first program immediately dropped them lol. I did keep my microbiology class, since that's one of our first classes and I don't really remember too much from it since I took it like 5 years ago. If you are worried about the information that you are learning, I would just keep the classes, especially if you already started and already paid for it! Just my opinion :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAinthePROCESS Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Does anyone who has been accepted know how many seats are still available? And is the hear by date March 7th? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USMC2PA Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 I'm doing the same with 2 science classes just for a refresher and foundation. If for some odd reason I don't do so well in these classes, this shouldn't affect my acceptance correct? I'm pretty sure it shouldn't because it is after the fact but I just want some opinions. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJM17285 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 UCMC2PA: I don't thnk it would affect anything! You aren't sending them those transcripts right? I think if you have to send them transcripts for your in progress courses, those would show up and then that might be an issue, although I don't see why it would. If you can avoid sending them that would probably be best....I'm not sending the ones I'm doing now because they aren't in progress or required for admission.

I wanted to take these classes since it's been a long time and I was thinking if I took the class for no credit I wouldn't try as hard or show up to lab if I wasn't up to it. Thanks for the input.

eelimonadee Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 If you are going to continue taking the class you should still try to get an A! You never know if you will continue your education and you don't want to have to explain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m5z3k61 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Does anyone know when those who did not receive an interview for the last interview date will receive a rejection email? I'm surprised they didn't send it yet since the interview cycle appear to be over. I have been wondering if they just didn't make it to my application packet during the review process. Anyone else in the same boat? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
