I got an email for interview too! They were really awesome and let me schedule mine for a later date since the October 21 one conflicted with my schedule. So I will be interviewing Nov. 4th(: Here are my stats, just remember they aren't everything (:

sGPA: 3.8 cGPA: 3.8

GRE: 157v 152q 4.5w

HCE: ~1,100 hours EMT/ER tech, ~200 hours volunteer ER, ~60 hours shadowing

I also had around 200 community service/volunteer hours non-healthcare

Good luck everyone and hope to see you there(:

I will also be interviewing at pacific 10/21. I have a good friend who just graduated from there who loved it so im excited! I lived in the area for 8 years so know it well, anyone interested in meeting up briefly the night before just to relax and meet each other for an hr or so? I did a meet up before my last interview and I do think it helped with how I went into the interview. Let me know and we can make it happen!

Anyone applying to Pacific for the 2nd time? Just curious what you did to improve your application this year.

Good luck to everyone!

I am applying for the 2nd time this year. Had an interview and was placed on the wait list. 

I made changes throughout the year, gaining different PCE in an orthopedic outpatient PT clinic, taking additional recommended classes such as developmental psychology, and shadowing more PA's from different specialties. I also wrote a new narrative to reflect how I have grown since not getting in last year. Additionally, my letters of recommendation have come from different people including 2 PA's from different specialties, 1 academic and 1 clinic director.

I appreciate any feedback. 

Thank you and good luck to everyone!

Does the school hold one interview per month? So far I see 10/21 and 11/4. This school seems to have a great PA program based on its website info and exam passing rates. Hope to hear from them soon!

A current student and ambassador of the program said in this thread earlier that there will be 4 interview sessions that are being held every 2 weeks. There have only been invitations sent out for 2/4 sessions. Invites can occur anywhere from 4 weeks to 1 week prior to the interview date but thus far it looks like they are sending them out 4 weeks in advance. I'm anxiously waiting to hear back from them as well!! Good Luck
