Bonist55 Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 I applied 8/23 and submitted my supplemental about 3 days later. I still have not received an interview acceptance or declination so I guess I should still have hope... especially since the deadline for apps is Nov 1.

It's okay, I don't know that Phx would have been the best fit for my family. Definitely not losing hope, it's a long cycle and a lot could happen still!

idau85 Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Hello, To applicants who were accepted, I wanted to ask what type of community service hours and setting did you completed your hours in? I did not get accepted this year and the feedback was to get community service hours with the "under served communities". The application website only said community service hours and did not specify this detail. I will re-apply again next year and need to improve this aspect. If you can please share I would greatly appreciate it! Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ajames Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 I also volunteered at a nonprofit free clinic and I specified that my PCE was downtown which involved taking care of the underserved. We work with a lot of homeless, immigrants, and disabled patients at the hospital in which I work and my experience has inspired me to continue working with underserved populations because I feel that I can give back to my community by providing quality care to those who often do not receive the healthcare they need. Every city has their own clinics that are looking for healthcare workers so definitely try to get involved and at the same time I'm sure you will find inspiration!

You could find soup kitchens, womens battered shelters, free community clinics in your area and ask to volunteer with them. They are normally OVER joyed to have dedicated, repeat volunteers come out and help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

idau85 Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 eamaru16 - I volunteered at a batter women shelter for 8 years. Which is why I am am not sure what defines a "under served" because I thought it was under served, but that was the feedback I received. Community service should be more towards the under served. I also worked with the immigrant population for over ten years. Thank you for the list of ideas though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I received an email from a staff member. It said specifically that the community service hours has to be with the under served. The definition of this I am confused about, because I did my hours at a domestic women shelter where women and their kids are living. I also did a myriad of other community service projects working with immigrants, exchanges students (who are from third world countries and here on a scholarship), the elderly and the food shelter work.

Thank you so much for clarifying! I didn't receive any feedback whatsoever after my rejection email. I definitely will contact admissions after a couple of months when things settle down and they're ""less"" busy to see if I could get ANY feedback incase I apply again next year ! Did you email them back wondering about how your community service didn't fall into the category of working with the underserved? Because just reading your explanation, you DEFINITELY fulfilled that requirement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
