Devon.Nicole Posted July 6, 2016 Share Posted July 6, 2016 I guess things are looking better for me after all! Just got the call to interview! I'll be there August 16th since I had another obligation on August 3rd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devon.Nicole Posted July 6, 2016 Share Posted July 6, 2016 Did anyone that interviewed come from out of state? I'm just wondering what might be the best hotel to stay at for two nights there. And since I'm coming from out of state, please give me any suggestions of what to do in the area and how transportation such as taxis/Ubers are there! Thanks!

So I drove here for mine, but I know there was someone in my group that flew out. I believe he flew into Palm Beach International and rented a car, but I don't believe the airport is that far from the school so a taxi or uber would probably be doable. There are also hotels nearby so I'd pick one which with you're most comfortable. If you're really wondering which is best you could likely call them and ask for their opinion, they're quite helpful. I'm not sure if Palm Beach Airport is expensive though given that it seems to be smaller than say Orlando, so if you're strapped for $$$, are 25, and don't mind driving, Orlando International is about a 2 hour drive (could also try Miami as well).

JulieDonmez Posted July 7, 2016 Share Posted July 7, 2016 I came from Houston but was born and raised in Fort Lauderdale! You should fly into Fort Lauderdale and rent a car. It's about a 40 min drive ... Palm beach might be expensive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valvarez1 Posted July 7, 2016 Share Posted July 7, 2016 I stayed at the Hampton inn. It was about 10 minutes away, around 100 dollars a night (stayed one night) bit it also came with free breakfast. The last thing you want to do on your interview Date is stress out and be flustered to get there in time and on an empty stomach. There is also a walgreens around the corner for any last minute things you need. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jlellingson Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 For those who have already had an interview, how long was it after you got a call that they sent an email with information about the interview day? I was called at the end of last month about my interview on the 28th of this month, but have yet to receive an email. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was called at the end of last month about my interview on the 28th of this month, but have yet to receive an email. Mine was a few days but I honestly didn't get any information other than them confirming my interview date/time. I had to call to ask about like campus directions and whatnot. But luckily there are only two buildings on the campus so it was easy! Best of luck! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Petunia Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 Does anyone know how many seats are left? Congratulations to all that got in! I applied last week and am curious if I will be too late to be able to have the chance to interview Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katie007 Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 When I interviewed they said they would be interviewing, most likely, through September. As far as actual number of seat already filled, I have no idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valvarez1 Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 Did anyone that got accepted, after you sent your letter and deposit get a confirmation email that they received it? I mailed mine out last Wednesday(the 6th), and maybe just being paranoid. Lol I called and got a voice-mail and have emailed. Just curious. Thanks!

I called and emailed to verify my deposit was received. I used certified mail to make sure I had proof of delivery. It was delivered on 6/23/16, and I see in my checking account that South U. deposited my check on 07/01/16, which was the due date for my deposit.

natali4 Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Got an interview invite for August 2nd! Grateful for the opportunity and excited to meet you all :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paguy123 Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 Hey everyone, I just had my interview today and found the place to be amazing. The staff was so welcoming to all the applicants there today. I never felt more at home. The applicants that I interacted with today were all educated and showed a true passion for the PA career. To be candid, I hope all the people get accepted that were there today. As for my interview, I thought it went fairly well. The end result turned out to better than expected. I received a call 30 min after I left with an offer for a seatJ. I can’t tell how excited I am about this. I want to wish everyone good luck with the process. The best advance for the interview I can give is to just be yourself and you will do fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petunia Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 Awesome! I am staring at my phone like it's my full-time job, waiting for it to ring and receive an invitation to interview! Congrats to all of you who have been accepted already!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petunia Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Finally got my interview invite! Yay :) August 30th. A long time away, but I am still real excited and hope the class doesn't fill before then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SarahATC2PA Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 Out of curiosity, did you guys receive confirmation that your application had been received? I asked this awhile ago, but nobody has been kind enough to answer yet...thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mnreyes Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 I emailed them again yesterday about that SarahATCPA, they then responded with the "thank you for applying to south ....we have received your CASPA app" email. Try again, I emailed this person Smerrell@southuniversity.edu , Shemeka Merrell who works with admissions for the PA program there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jlellingson Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 I had my interview today and got a call about 15 minutes after offering me a seat! I can't wait to meet everyone and wish everyone who has a later interview good luck! My best advise is just be yourself and don't seem to scripted!
