kelzie 41 Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 I'm planning on applying this cycle as well! It'll be my first time applying to PA schools; I've heard it's common to not get in on your first cycle, so a bit nervous! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hgill 32 Posted March 17, 2017 Author Share Posted March 17, 2017 I'm planning on applying this cycle as well! It'll be my first time applying to PA schools; I've heard it's common to not get in on your first cycle, so a bit nervous! This will be my second time applying to schools but my first time for U of Iowa. I have also heard that most people do not get in their first time applying so I didn't feel too bad when I didn't get accepted last year! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pez 37 Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 its going to be an interesting ride since i'm applying to medical school too. I find myself to be a competitive applicant, we will see. Does anyone know how many people they interview, and if U-Iowa move quickly on their application process. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jen04 0 Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 Did anyone get a confirmation email from U of Iowa after their CASPA application was verified and completed? I got emails from every other school I applied to saying "they had received my application" or something, but haven't heard anything from Iowa yet. Not sure if that is normal or if I should follow up with them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I don't recall the exact date, but about 2 weeks into May Edit: I checked caspa, I submitted 5/17 and was verified on 5/18 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BrittanyJ95 16 Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 Received a completed application email 7/15 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
summerellefson 7 Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 I got an "Interview-hold" list. :( Wah, top choice. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
madjjensen 4 Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 @summerellefson I got the same email. If you look at the forum from last years cycle, almost everybody (if not everybody) was on this list before they received an interview. This just means you haven't been rejected yet and they are still looking at the applications they have received thus far! I think it's definitely a good thing :) 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

sh2017 13 Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 Do y'all think its too late to submit the application? I'm not certain if my stats are good enough. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It's still well before their deadline, so although you aren't super early, I don't think it's necessarily too late. As far as stats go, I believe they look at the entire application, and you'll never know if you don't try! Best of luck if you do decide to apply=) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BrittanyJ95 16 Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 @kmash Did you receive an interview-hold email? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
klpenceRT 3 Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 How long did it take for everyone to at least receive an interview-hold email? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I just want to get a rough idea in what they are looking for. If you can message me them that would be awesome :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
