LAUNCHBRICK Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 Thanks Pam. If I am not working I will be there this month. Has anyone seen this video?? Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssalabao Posted January 10, 2012 Author Share Posted January 10, 2012 I'm trying to go this month as well :smile: if not I will try to go in February. I just saw the video.. these plans they have for MoVAl are awesome and give the city a bright future instead of the bad reputation it has. I pass by the construction of Nason Street everyday. Thanks Pam. If I am not working I will be there this month. Has anyone seen this video?? Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozzie Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Launchbrick, I'm doing my best to save too. Obviously how much depends on your lifestyle, but we can both agree as future p.a. students (crossing fingers) we won't be doing a whole lot other than studying lol. With that said, how much (estimate) are you preparing to save to get through 2years at full-time status? Also, are you commuting from home or do you plan on moving near campus?

vanlerme Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 I applied for this year but all I have gotten is the post card to let me know they received my package. Anybody gotten a phone call or invitation for interview? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bike mike Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 I applied for this year but all I have gotten is the post card to let me know they received my package. Anybody gotten a phone call or invitation for interview? Riverside does not hold interviews. You should get a letter saying you are in or out. Last year letters went out in April.

fyrelight74 Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Yeah, mine was dated March 29th last year, with an acceptance form to fill out and send in with 2-3 weeks afterward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rave Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Hi all, Am I expecting a feb decision or is march-April decision time? The program receptionist told me they've recd about 300 applications. Good luck to all. I called the school and I'm sad to hear the director is retiring :-( I went to one orientation class and I think ms Middleton said the school will be requiring bachelors after 2013. Thoughts? And best wishes to all! Laura ( movalle hopeful 2012) --- I am here: http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=33.687210,-117.150164 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

afarmboy Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Has everyone that applied already received their postcard acknowledging receipt of the application? I haven't yet, but I do have my USPS return receipt showing it delivered. Ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fyrelight74 Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Our letters were dated around March 28th or 29th last year... one thing you need to know about PA schools...everything runs behind... you just have to chill and not worry, because it will all work out in the end. Most of us are type-A personalities but we all learn through the program to chill a little, because the program does have our best interest at heart. And it's not just our program that runs behind... I have friends who have gone to other programs and it's the same way. So, expect a response the end of March, and if it comes in February, you will be pleasantly surprised. :) Yes, we will miss Dr. Middleton. Hopefully we will get someone in soon who will make a smooth transition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LAUNCHBRICK Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 @ ozzie I live in Perris its about 6 miles from the school. I do not have much saved but I am debt free and going to get student loans and help from family. I live very humbly. My girl friend and I live together and we are hoping she will get promoted by the time I start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stacykimpa Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 I received a postcard stating that they received my packet in Dec.. You should contact them if you havent received one. Maybe it just got misplaced. Good luck to all of us :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will be applying for next year again. I'm sorry. I know it's heartbreaking. Maybe you can make an appt with the office and find out how you can improve your application? I know that is usually an option... I remember a few people on here did that last year. Also, did you apply anywhere else? Have you heard from them yet?

bms1015 Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Looks like i'm out of the running guys. I received my rejection letter already :( good luck to you all. I will be applying for next year again. Sorry to hear. Did they give you a reason for denial? Or just a general "sorry you didn't make it" letter?

hamiltjn Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 Sorry to hear. Did they give you a reason for denial? Or just a general "sorry you didn't make it" letter? When I was denied last year they gave me a reason, I hope they gave him/her a reason! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssalabao Posted February 11, 2012 Author Share Posted February 11, 2012 It was very heartbreaking... :( I haven't applied anywhere else and I put all my eggs in this basket and was just hoping for the best. The reason why I got rejected ( a lil embarassing) was because of my GPA in my core sciences. I will be retaking my Anatomy class to up my GPA :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will be retaking my Anatomy class to up my GPA :) Last year I applied to only 3 schools and didn't get in, it was quite the bummer. This year I applied to 21 schools and traveled all over interviewing. I got accepted at an university far away from California but at least I have some sort of future now. Keep at it!!

dustinpowell82 Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 @ssalabao That must have been a hard letter to receive. I'm sorry you received it. I hope you'll keep your presence on the forum. Whether or not I receive a similar letter this year, I'll be seeing you, here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
