Please feel free to give me any tough love!


 


Thanks!

Hi all! I'm a PA student at Detroit Mercy, feel free to email me (murawsjn@udmercy.edu) or Snapchat me @jamienicole3x or Reddit PM @jamienicole3x if you have any questions. [i was also accepted to GVSU (that's my alma mater for my Bachelor's)].

 

Good luck to you all, and most importantly... enjoy the wait! You won't hear anything at all from UDM until March or so. Then it's pretty quick, you'll have an admissions decision by April!

Hi Jamie! 

I was wondering if you knew how many total interviews they do? Also, if this is all on one date or multiple?
