If you’re on the waitlist keep your fingers crossed. I got an interview as well. I suppose I will see you there on the 16th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UsmcMichigan32 Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 Got an interview for 11/16 but I'm turning it down since I have another interview that day to a program that was higher on my dream school list. I hope somebody with their heart set on Utah gets my spot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAWannaBe1 Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 It’s been so quiet around here! About two weeks to go and I’m experiencing a healthy dose of anxiety but trying to keep it under control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
annie0271 Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 I will be interviewing 11/16! Anyone would like to meet up? I'm flying in from Cali on Wednesday around 2:30pm, and will be staying at the Hampton inn about 2 miles from the interview site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HemeOncPA19 Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 For those of you interviewing over the next two weeks, here are some things to keep in mind. You are qualified to be in this program, so keep that in mind. I know that thought kept me more calm during interviews. At the UoU, they really are just trying to get to know you and see if you fit the mission of this program. The faculty and staff that does the interviewing are really great people and they aren't out to get you or trick you. Also, keep in mind- there are no perfect answers. Just answer from within yourself, truthfully and with passion. When I interviewed, I ultimately didn't think about being accepted. I just knew I was stoked to be at that point, among so many amazing candidates who all had the same goal in mind. If you aren't accepted, there are many other programs and if you're set on the U, there is always next year. Best of luck to everyone! Come with a smile and be excited to have made it this far. Don't let the fear control you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tara2402 Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Just wanted to say good luck to everyone and I will meet some of you tomorrow. Really hoping this program is a good fit (and vice versa). Also psyched they're gonna have coffee in the morning, meaning I might actually be more than just a reanimated corpse by the time interviews start!

Grace Johnson Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 I was scheduled to interview at UPAP on November 17th, however I just received an acceptance from my dream PA program, so I have canceled my interview at UPAP, so that another alternate may benefit from my vacancy. I hope that my cancelation opens up a spot for another to interview! Wishing you all the best during interviews, and for those already accepted - cheers to an exciting new chapter!

ShannonRN Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 Regarding the social from 5-7, are we invited to bring significant others with us? My fiancé is flying in with me from California to check out the area (never been to salt lake), so I’m curious what the norm is for this “social” event! Anyone who has interviewed here already, please weigh in :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aholli Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 For those of you who have interiewed already, How have they gone? Anything surprising? Also, from the rough draft schedule that was sent out, it looks like we will be doing a lot of waiting for our turn to interview. Is that correct? Or are you participating in something the majority of the time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Verybadhombre Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 Hello fellow applicants! Flying in tomorrow around 11am for Friday’s interview. I just checked the weather and it will be cold and raining! Pack accordingly and wear something warm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Audrief Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 I interviewed on Friday 11/10. For anyone that interviewed that day I would love to connect! It was so nice to meet you all. (I don't know how to reply directly to a comment haha) but from this comment- " For those of you who have interviewed already, How have they gone? Anything surprising? Also, from the rough draft schedule that was sent out, it looks like we will be doing a lot of waiting for our turn to interview. Is that correct? Or are you participating in something the majority of the time? " - Everyone's schedule was a little different. The day went like this for me: Introductions with the staff, the exam, one interview, lunch, second interview, then group interview. I was there from about 7:30am-3:30pm. Some didn't start their last interview by the time I left. When we were waiting, we were all in a room. We just sat and got to know each other. It was fun! The other candidates were awesome! I have no idea how they will pick between people. My fingers are crossed!! My first interview was rough (probably due to nerves) but my second and group went really well. Good luck for those of you interviewing today and tomorrow!!! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aholli Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 Haha In Regard to the first interview- think that will be the case for a lot of people! Thanks for the insight! I figured it would be a lot of socializing, which I’m totally ok with :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Possle Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 I agree with Audrief, and I want to add that both the students and faculty were very friendly and welcoming to the candidates. We were socializing between breaks. During the PM student Q and A, some of the candidates brought significant others and there were plenty of seats. Ladies, remember to bring a pair of comfortable shoes with you for the walk. I interviewed on NOV9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reading the thread from last year, it seems as if everyone hears back one way or another--accepted, waitlisted or rejected. The antici.......pation!
