ps2016 Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Has anyone figured out whether interview hold means that you'll actually get an interview or not? It's seeming to trend that way from this thread, although I was placed on interview hold on October 14th and have not heard anything yet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acolsch Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 I am very confused because I submitted my application September 7th, and I received confirmation emails then. I have not heard anything in weeks and now today I received an email confirming receipt of my application???? Did anyone else have this happen?

futurePA2492 Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 I am very confused because I submitted my application September 7th, and I received confirmation emails then. I have not heard anything in weeks and now today I received an email confirming receipt of my application???? Did anyone else have this happen? Same thing happened to me! I sent my application on Sept 8 and received a confirmation email (Sept 12) then another email stating that after their first review, my application is now marked as complete (Nov 1). I believe the first one is just a confirmation of the receipt of our application and now it is still in the process of getting reviewed! Hope we get an interview soon~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IAPA16 Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 I emailed Kaila after my interview session and she said that candidates will be reevaluated after every interview session so it could be even earlier since there was just an interview session!

lmn2017 Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 Does anyone know the dates of the December interview session? I'm curious when we will find out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IowaPA17 Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 I'm not sure when the December session is, but I just had my interview on the 4th/5th and they mentioned a possible January date as well. They haven't decided yet if they are going to add the extra interview date or not yet, but they are thinking about it since there were so many good candidates that applied this year. They said that if they did decide to do this they would let us know that we would have to wait longer. But they did say we would know early in January at the latest.

booboo09 Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 I am currently on the interview hold list. Is there only one interview day left? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erinld Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 I am currently on the interview hold list. Is there only one interview day left? From my understanding, there has been discussion about holding an extra interview day in January. Initially, the interview being held in December(?) was going to be the last day. Great news for everyone on the interview hold list, bad news that applications were extra competitive this year! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crdpa-s Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 Do you mind sharing your stats crdpa? Sure, I don't mind! Overall GPA: 3.78 Science GPA: 3.80 GRE Scores- Verbal: 163 Quantitative: 161 Analytical Writing: 5.5 Direct patient Care hours: ~2200 I have no shadowing hours :( If you are really interested in University of Iowa- I would youtube and search for MMI practice. There is this one youtuber named "Course Grinder"- listening to his practice problems really helped with the interview in my opinion. I also recommend reading up on current events- both in the PA world and in general before going to the interview. Remember, in the MMI your answer should showcase HOW you would address the issue- not what your final answer is! I hope this helps- the only reason I know this is because this was my second time interviewing here and I (obviously) didn't get in the first time. I will be attending Uni. of Iowa in Fall 2017 and I'm soooo excited! I got accepted to Barry university as well- but there is just no competition in caliber.

aldon Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 I was placed on the interview hold list a few weeks ago and just got the call from Kaila that I got an interview! It's December 16/17. It says in the interview invitation email that this is the last interview date, so I think they might have decided to forgo the January session. Hopefully this helps for those waiting to hear back! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
