jmtam Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 14 hours ago, Vdesai5 said: For those of you accepted, congrats!! Do you mind sharing stats? Did you interview? If so, I really don't think they were worried about stats afterward. They really tried to get to know you as a person and wanted to know your intentions and goals in the profession. These were my stats when I applied last year: Overall GPA- 3.11; Replacement GPA- 3.8; Pre-Req GPA- 3.9; PCH- 3,500; Volunteer Hours- 350. With that said, I truly believe that being able to articulate how my experiences have shaped and prepared me or PA school, and the profession itself, outweighed my lower GPA. I am so excited for all who have been accepted! To those still waiting, I will be sending a prayer and wishing you luck! For those who did not get in, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DO NOT GIVE UP!!!

CKPA Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 For those of you accepted, congrats!! Do you mind sharing stats? GPA 3.8, replacement GPA 4.0PCE 2500 + hours , HCE 500+ hours, shadowed 3 PA's 300+ hours total, volunteer 3000+ hours LOR's - 2 PA's, PT (my supervisor), Exercise Physiologist (my supervisor) My PCE hours came from being a PT tech and MA (primary care). I agree with jmtam, the application does play a huge role in getting the interview itself. Once you are at the interview they are trying to get to know YOU!! I was accepted at another school as well and it was the same thing, the application got me the interview, but showing who I was and my love for the profession got me the spot. My advice, be the best you can be. Do NOT give up on your dream. Keep moving forward and stay positive. Also, when a school gives stats on their competitive applicant, try to be that but better and then your chances at getting an interview increases.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jealsa Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 No not yet... maybe tomorrow? I think they said within 72 hours of acceptance (likely business hours). Seats went out on Friday afternoon at around this time. Guess they could still come today! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just clocking out from a rough night shift, so I felt like I was a tad in shock/brain dead when I was talking to Lauren (?). She made it seem like they're still filling seats though!

We had someone get in from the waitlist literally a week before classes started. I think of 84 we had 9 come in off the waitlist, most of those in the fall. So don't hold your breath if you're on the waitlist, but don't give up hope either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
