scantrell4 Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 Oh my gosh I'm so excited this process is finally making head way... Congrats everyone who got their interview invites! It seems most of you went under review mid-August! I went under review Sept. 1 so hopefully I will hear back in the near future... Fingers crossed!! For those of you who got interviews- would you mind sharing your number of HCE hours, GPA, GRE stats? I'm curious if Duke puts more emphasis on academics or experience!? GOOD LUCK EVERYONE :) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DPAP-2018 Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 Scantrell4: I'm a current first year. To answer your question, Duke's PA Program has a holistic Admissions approach. The AdCom attempts to see each applicant as a whole person, and tries to create a really well-rounded and diverse class in every sense of the word. Healthcare experience is strongly encouraged, but the level of experience does vary quite a bit among admitted students. If you've been invited to interview, it means the Committee thinks you're qualified on paper, and they now want to see what you're like in person. Duke's PA AdCom likes to ask itself if they could potentially see a particular applicant as taking great care of their sick loved one in the future. They want to enroll really wholesome people. People who are booksmart, driven, and experienced, but also socially intelligent, open minded, and empathetic toward those in need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaygaz Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 For those who have experience with the RDU airport.... If interviews end at 5:00 PM, does anyone have recommendations on what time to get to the airport? Could I make a 6:30 flight or is that pushing it?

lddelellis Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 No, I am from the area and that is right at rush hour. It could take you an hour to even get to the airport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mwb25 Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 For those who have experience with the RDU airport.... If interviews end at 5:00 PM, does anyone have recommendations on what time to get to the airport? Could I make a 6:30 flight or is that pushing it? That will be pushing it. Security at RDU is very simple to get through. I live in the area and every time I fly out, it takes 10-15 minutes max. for security. Duke is roughly 30 min from RDU and it will be during rush hour. It is possible, but risky. Your call Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winnied123 Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 So frustrated as I received an email confirmation stating that my application was complete on 07/31/2016 (everything received including GRE scores and Supplemental) but have still not received an email that my application has been sent to admissions for review... Is it really completely random who gets in line first even if I submitted everything before others who have been sent to admissions? Process does not seem very fair to me. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fluidworks Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 No one said this process is fair. I had my app forwarded to the interview board on August 16th, and haven't heard anything since. All we can do is remain optimistic, and focus on preparing for any other interviews we already have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winnied123 Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 At least yours has been sent to the admissions! That seems like a pretty fair chance to me. Obviously I agree on staying positive. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
