BobcatPA Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Hello PA world, I just got invited for interview at Ohio University PA @dublin Ohio and I’m so anxious of the interview. What type of questions are there in the interview. The Program just put in probation like a month ago. Should I bring up and ask about the reason for that or is it a red flag? I want to go to the school no matter what... but for discussion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UGoLong Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Hello PA world, I just got invited for interview at Ohio University PA @dublin Ohio and I’m so anxious of the interview. What type of questions are there in the interview. The Program just put in probation like a month ago. Should I bring up and ask about the reason for that or is it a red flag? I want to go to the school no matter what... but for discussion They will probably talk about it. There is nothing wrong with asking, but if you want to go there, I wouldn't dwell on it. Anyone who goes there now will get to graduate and take their boards, regardless of what happens. In general, it takes about two years for a program to get off probation.Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mortc15 Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 I have an interview on the 17th at OU. Looking forward to seeing what this program has to offer. I know the Columbus area fairly well, but looking to see how the program fits into the city scene and/or is different. Seems much different from other formats, with only 2 hours expected for the entire process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is great if you want to do some of "college life" stuff too lol . But I wouldn't expect that with an intensive PA curriculum. please leave me info when you finish your interview. Best of luck.

mortc15 Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 I just interviewed today at OU and found the interview process to be fairly routine. As for the accreditation status, they do touch on it and talk about what they've already implemented to correct it. But again, I thought the interview process was pretty normal to most other places I've been. Just getting to know you in other words. Best of luck to everyone!

Does it really only take the 2 hours they say it will? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobcatPA Posted December 2, 2017 Author Share Posted December 2, 2017 Accepted from 11/28 interview. Interview was more of a conversation than "ask and answer." From the front office to the director, all were easy to approach. I am a BOBCAT!! Good Luck everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found their interview to be much less stressful. I started with kind of a mini ''know the program" video session, and then interview with admission director, followed by the program director and two faculty members. Just focus on why you WANT and DESERVE to be in the program, and how THE PROGRAM (specifically) will help you become successful both as student and in the profession later. All the best!

FuturePA1995 Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 When you were accepted to OU, how did they let you know? I had an interview 12/15 and they said they’d let us know very soon within a week or two. I called twice last week and they said Ricky sent out the letters on Thursday. So is it just letters or do they call you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
