SueBee89 Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Yeah :( I've lost all hope this time around Don't think that way! Be positive! Everyone's story is different! You will be a PA one day! For those that have already interviewed, did you take anything with you? Transcripts, resume, anything? Also, (for ladies) I assume a business suit with a nice shirt would be acceptable? Thanks in advance!! I wore a black suit. I had brought a portfolio to take notes in, but I only used it at the beginning. They have your transcripts and resume already. Good luck! I'm sure you'll be great :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmtam Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Haven't heard back for an interview... and I live on the other end of the country. Count me out thusfar. Good luck everyone else this cycle! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrePAgyrl Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 Yeah :( I've lost all hope this time around Don't. If you really want to be a PA, you will make yourself stronger candidate for the next cycle and reapply. I will if I get a rejection. I've already started by retaking a class in Jan (just in case)...

Trustraveler Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 Hey all, I just interviewed today (11/30). There were 17 applicants in my group. For those of you who were there, how do you think the interview questions were? Because, to be honest...I was unimpressed. They asked me the basic questions of why PA, why NAU, etc. The group interview and the 1:1 interview both asked me the same questions! Did anybody else have the same experience? With these sorts of straight forward questions, even the most unprepared applicant can answer them well. I feel like I wasn't given the opportunity to tell them my story, since they didn't ask about life situations ("tell me of the most difficult experience you've had and how you overcame it," for example). I honestly don't know how they are going to choose people for this program if they don't have individual stories that make each of us stand out. What are your thoughts? Did you get the same sorts of questions I got, or were you asked questions that made you able to share your unique story/experiences? I kinda feel like I got cheated. I was so ready to share a ton of stuff, but wasn't asked about my personal life in any way... Argh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was so ready to share a ton of stuff, but wasn't asked about my personal life in any way... Argh! I actually kind of agree with you. I was asked about a challenge I overcame, however I felt that the group panel interview made it more difficult for them to get to know me personally... like they didn't ask about anything on my application or my personal statement, oh well :/. I was impressed with the school and the faculty though so I hope I hear back!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mtorr_ca Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 Has anyone who interviewed yesterday (11/30) heard from them about early acceptance? I was wondering the same thing... I've been checking my phone like crazy! Do you think they would send rejection emails this early? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ljmorgan9 Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 I have not heard anything yet. They said they would send rejections emails pretty soon after the interview. So if you haven't heard anything yet, and don't for a while, it may not necessarily be a bad thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pawnold Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 I haven't heard anything either! I asked Kay specifically how many more interview sessions there will be. She said two for sure and they were contemplating a third. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MO_PNW Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Not to be the debbie downer, but I think there is still time to send out rejection letters. I think they will probably interview this next group on the 13th (and perhaps a third group it sounds like?) and then sort of sweep through all 3 groups again to place people who are in the probable acceptance or alternate group and maybe decide to add some to the rejection group as they compare candidates from other interview dates. That's what I gathered when Mr. Dehn was talking about how it doesn't really matter what time you interview and how they circled back on the earlier groups they had interviewed to review. But I think it can be agreed that no news is good news as time goes on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sydniiray Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 Sydniiray Congratulations! Are you from Arizona as well?? I am so so so excited for this interview! I am from San Diego! My boyfriends family lives in AZ though so I would love to go to school/move to AZ permanently. Where else are you interviewing?? The posts below make me a little nervous- hope ours go well!

fkdammann Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 I was wondering the same thing... I've been checking my phone like crazy! Do you think they would send rejection emails this early? Has anyone who interviewed yesterday (11/30) heard from them about early acceptance? I interviewed 11/30 and got a phone call later that evening for early acceptance from one of the faculty! To my understanding, they admit 2-3 early acceptance per interview group and then admit the rest of the class at the end of interviews. Therefore I'm sure more of you will hear positive news too.
