The program is well organized, focuses on collaboration and design to make you a best primary care PA.  The founding members of the program are still core faculties along with other experienced staff members. Do I have regret? No.... If you have any specific concern feel free to ask me. Hopefully, in about two weeks program will start sending interview invites. Good Luck!!

Congrats! When is/are the interview(s)??

So there are am and pm sessions available every Tuesday starting October 31, and I think there is one day where it is offered on a Monday. There was a total of four dates and eight times (am or pm)  to choose from.

Would anyone be able to elaborate a little on the interview process? I have mine coming up and I wanted to see if there are tips or how the format is. 

Hi Patel, 

Congratulation for getting an interview! 

Carroll uses a standard interview format like most PA school. I believe we are still using last year format but don't quote me on this I will for sure know by tomorrow as first round of interview begins tomorrow. Be prepared for 3 to 4 different interviews with faculty members, aossociate professors, MDs, and PAs. As I said earlier, interviewer will try to put you guys at ease ...

Usually, day begins with information session followed by 15-20 mins 3 or 4 interviews and Q&A session with us and 2nd year student if available. It takes about 4 hours.

Only tip I can think of is be confident in yourself, smile and interview will see your passion to become a PA.

Any other concern or question you can PM me as well.  

Chalo madi ae Patel! 

-James

Just got my acceptance call! I interviewed on the 31st 

Congratulations! You must have done really awesome, they said they only make early offers to exceptional candidates. I don't think the rest of us can expect to hear anything until the December 5th interviews are completed and everyone is reviewed.
