Pawnold Posted November 27, 2016 Share Posted November 27, 2016 Does anyone know how many people applied to begin with? Also, for the ladies out there coming to the Dec 9-10 interview, heels or no heels? It sounds like it is going to be a long day... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SK88 Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 There were 800 applicants. I attended the November interview and saw a wide variety of shoe wear and choices of attire. I would suggest comfortable shoes because you will be on your feet a lot. Go with what you feel comfortable in. Congratulations on the interview and good luck!

oneloverach Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 Unfortunately just found out I was "not considered" after interviewing on 11/4-11/5. Kinda bummed out since I really loved this school and this is my second go round applying in general. Good luck to everyone who's applied. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kinda bummed out since I really loved this school and this is my second go round applying in general. Good luck to everyone who's applied. I'm so sorry to hear that.. I interviewed as well. Did you find out by email or mail if you don't mind me asking? It's never fun not getting in. This is my third year applying. But you just have to keep improving your application and don't forget the reason you wanted to be a PA! Also you will have such a better shot next year since they know you now:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneloverach Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 I received a letter in the mail today. I am trying to remain hopeful and figure out ways to improve my application. Good luck and thank you for the encouragement! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNAtoPA Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Just got my letter saying I am under "active consideration" aka pending all other interviews. Has anyone else received this or acceptance? I know that they have accepted a handful already.. I just don't know how many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAWannaBe1 Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 I also just received an "under active consideration" letter. It's going to be long month of waiting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAWannaBe1 Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Does anyone know how many people applied to begin with? Also, for the ladies out there coming to the Dec 9-10 interview, heels or no heels? It sounds like it is going to be a long day... They said over 800 people applied. I say small heels or no heels. The first day is just the reception (mingling, meeting the interviewers and other candidates) The second day is the actual interviews. It's long and there a walking tour, so definitely be comfortable. I wore 2 inch heels and was fine. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjj89 Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 I was also placed under "active consideration." I wonder how many they have given acceptances to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wore heels on the Friday occasion and my feet already hurt after 2 hours, so I wore comfortable pointed flats on the actual interview day. I'm so glad I did because there was a lot of walking! The interviews were spread throughout the day, so it's nice to not have to worry about feet pain :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNAtoPA Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 I was also placed under "active consideration." I wonder how many they have given acceptances to? Yah I wonder the same thing.. I've heard of about 5. Also I know of at least 5 "active considerations" as well... but I didn't know everyone interviewing so their could obviously be more!

CNAtoPA Posted December 11, 2016 Share Posted December 11, 2016 For those who interviewed today.. Did they let you know when they would start notifying about acceptance?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeuroPA2 Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 Hello everyone! I actually did not have an account prior to this and created one just now so I could reply to this thread. I attended the 12/9-12/10 interview session and we were informed by the director that they hoped to have notifications out in about two weeks (although he was also clear that was not a guaranteed timeframe).

winniethepooh Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 The director called me this past Friday and offered me a seat. So happy! Time to make a decision :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAWannaBe1 Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 Congrats Winniethepooh!!! I'm still waiting for a decision. So are all the acceptances by phone call? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winniethepooh Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 Congrats Winniethepooh!!! I'm still waiting for a decision. So are all the acceptances by phone call? I don't think so because a lot people found out via physical acceptance letter. You can imagine my surprise to receive that phone call. Made my day!

mjj89 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Has anyone else not received anything yet? I was part of the first interview group in November and was notified that I'm under active consideration pending the interview last December. I know a lot of you guys have heard back but I'm wondering if there's anyone else who hasn't besides me? No news is better news, but this anticipation is killing me!

EMTnowPrePA Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 I received a letter indicating I am on the alternate list. Did anyone else get the same letter? Winniethepooh, did the director maybe call you since you were out-of-state; or, did he say at all? You mentioned that others had received acceptance letters; were these candidates in state here in Nevada or out-of-state, if you do not mind me asking? Also, congratulations on getting a seat! =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then send an official acceptance letter following the phone call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EMTnowPrePA Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 I also received my letter in December. I contacted UNR to see how many they placed on the alternate list and where I ranked; but, they said that the information was not available at that time. I did just receive an invite for an "Information Session" that they are offering on two different dates in February. The information session does not indicate if it is a general information session like the ones they had last year; or, if it is for those of us that interviewed (they mentioned about bringing us back in March or April to go over how to improve our chances in the future). If you do not mind me asking, are you from Nevada, in the Reno area or elsewhere? Thank you for your response! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to Alexis, this information session is specifically for students that didn't get in. It's not going to be a general information session.
