Rubimar Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 I submitted 6/15, was verified a week after and last week received an email saying I was selected for the next screening process but, no interview invite yet. Is this the same process everyone went through before receiving an interview invite? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RDtoPAC Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 Hello everyone! I received an email stating that my app has been selected to move on to the next round of screening.

PAViktute Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 Hello, I will be interviewing at Rutgers in a couple weeks. And just wondering whether bringing a current photo is indeed mandatory?From what I've heard, and from past experience, school typically take a photo of all interviewees at some point during the interview date. Thanks so much! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks so much! I would bring one since its instructed in the email. Our photos were collected prior to the interview. You also don't want to be the only person there who did not bring a photo. Don't stress about the interview. Everyone is extremely nice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not true. They do not prioritize in-state, nor surrounding state applicants. They also do not prioritize alumni. Check out the program's faq. It's super informative. "In order to meet the needs of our diverse patient population, there is special emphasis on the recruitment of: traditionally underrepresented minorities in medicine and health professions those who speak a foreign language (especially Spanish) applicants who come from economically and/or environmentally disadvantaged backgrounds veterans of the US Military" "The program is not required to accept a specific number of in-state students. While many of the applicants are New Jersey residents, we seek the most competitive applicants from throughout the United States." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not taking stats into account, your likelihood of getting an interview is just as good as those who live in Jersey and/or went to Rutgers.

Every 30 min a faculty member for each group will come get you for the interview. It is an individual interview, but you will be with 3 Rutgers faculty or PA students/alumn. You only have 1 interview. The writing assignment was easy so no need to stress or try to prepare for it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They look at all applicants equally - it may seem like they pull from the surrounding area but it’s probably because more applicants apply around that particular area to the school. I interviewed 7/19 and I am from California. There were many of us from the Midwest and west coast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
