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!

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.

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.

I have not received anything.

@kelzie When did you submit your application?

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

@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 :)

Just received an email saying I am on the interview hold list. Hoping that I'll end up getting an interview here!

Same for me!! Good luck!

Do y'all think its too late to submit the application? I'm not certain if my stats are good enough. 

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=)

Hey Kelzie- Do you mind sharing your stats with me? I just want to get a rough idea in what they are looking for. If you can message me them that would be awesome :)

Got rejected 7/9/17 but I sent in my application wayyy early.  Best of luck to everyone! 

How long did it take for them to send you the rejection letter if you don't mind me asking.  the waiting game is the worst part.

Sent it in the first week of May.
