sastacey7 Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 Wow! congrats to you all! That is a great turn around time to hear back! I will be interviewing in Orlando this coming week- on Thursday. Looking forward to it. It seems that all the NOVA campuses have a very relaxed atmosphere. I think it speaks well of the programs! Hope to see some current students on here that I can meet on the day. Also, I would love to talk with any that are currently attending and have children. See you soon!

GAgirl22 Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 I just received an e-mail for my supplemental application. I am just curious if there are suppose to be essays on this application? I saw that someone was asking about essays on one of the nova forums. If there are essays I do not see them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nicole31311 Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 I just checked my folder with all of my NOVA stuff when I applied last year, and the supplemental did not have essays. It was just some yes or no questions, and a list of my extracurriculars. Hope that helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sastacey7 Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 I would keep up with it- check in once a week. I had a a problem similar to that. It was eventually resolved, but I never was contacted when it was. I had to call them for confirmation. I think that the changes in the application process at Nova this cycle is causing some issues as they all adjust to new procedures. I was also rescheduled and it was very close to my interview date. I had to have them move it back because everything was already paid for as far as the trip was concerned. There were people that interviewd with me that never received a confirmation letter and were told a start time of 8:30 when it was 8 am! I had my confirmation letter in hand, but one locations didn't know I was coming and didn't have my file ready...There is definitely some gaps in the process but I think that they are trying to deal with it as best as they can.

PAMissionary Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 Congrats to everyone who was accepted! I was wondering how long it took to receive an interview invitation after you all submitted your supplemental applications? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbrown41788 Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 When did you guys interview? I missed a phone call from V.Montgomery today and had no luck returning her call...now I am anxious. Who called you and how long was it after your interview? It hasn't even been a week since my interview. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmmuelle Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 Last year I received a phone call from Nova at the end of November. I then interviewed in January and was chosen as an alternate. I hope this helps and I wish everyone good luck this year. -Tiffany Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cushball08 Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 I have an interview on Nov. 14th. What was the interview like? I believe there is an essay portion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flpac Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 I have an interview on Nov. 14th. What was the interview like? I believe there is an essay portion. Very relaxed, in my personal opinion. I had two interviewers. And yes there was an essay portion. Mine had four questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cew1318 Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 I interviewed last week and I got the call yesterday that I was accepted! The interview process was not very stressful and the staff was very welcoming. Good luck to all those who will be interviewing in the next few weeks.

leaker037 Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 hey cushball08 I guess I see you there on tuesday! I got an interview at 12 on that day, very exciting, my first interview for a PA program. well actually my very first interview in the States! Four questions?! what kinds of questions can we expect? Do we have to study up for those?? Congrats to all of you that got in!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cushball08 Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 hey there, I actually asked around for you as I left my interview.. How did your interview go? I think mine went pretty well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leaker037 Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 I really cannot tell, I always come up with the best answers on the way home haha. What I liked was that they really just want to get to know you, but they also don't hint on how the interview went (obviously). Long story short, I think it went ok but you never know until that call! Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meyerkl Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Unfortunately, I completed my application late because I originally did not think I would be able to fit in a missing pre-req for Nova. So I was a bit worried about applying so late but I received an interview invite for January 9th! My other interviews so far have been pretty intimidating so I'm glad this one is a bit more relaxed!

Natacha Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Meyerkl, congrats on your interview! Would you mind telling when you applied? I also feel like I applied late (submitted CASPA on 9/26, mailed out on 10/21 to NOVA Orlando and 11/04 to NOVA Ft. Lauderdale) but have not heard back yet from any schools... Trying to be patient, though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leaker037 Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Natacha, I would not worry, my caspa was mailed somewhere in september but did not hear anything until two weeks ago. Clearly it takes a while for the paperwork to clear desks which makes sense considering the numbers. No worries. Meyerkl, never thought I would say this (I think it is a very random phrase) but it is true, they just want to get to know you in order to assess if you are fully aware of what it is you are getting yourself into. Everyone I talk to tells me that the program is very, very demanding as is the career field itself. They just want to figure out if you gave this whole PA thing enough thought so that you don't run away in horror 3 months after the program has started. Good luck! I think that it ain't over until that dreaded letter or one day after the program has started. I heard that they call alternates right up until the last minute.
