JL538 Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 I'll be interviewing in December, but has anyone heard if they'll be gaining full accreditation? On their website it says they have provisional accreditation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1dahardway Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 (edited) @cmpa2 I am sorry to hear that homie. Good luck at the other places you applied to. We all only need one acceptance, somewhere. Edited October 16, 2018 by 1dahardway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnyLAX9 Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 I also got my rejection email. Truly a bummer because I have heard great things about Lipscomb in general. Seeing their average stats though I just wasn't what they were looking for. Good luck to everyone else! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't heard anything back from them, so I am trying to get a gauge on what I should be expecting. So sorry to hear that though. Don't get discouraged!

It's ok Johnny... Man I'm hoping I get in here! I've dreamed about attending this program since last year's interview! And to everyone who is anxiously waiting to hear back from Lipscomb or any other school: You're not alone! I'm happy to discuss my difficult time getting into PA school (its my second cycle and have had 0 acceptances thus far) while seemingly everyone around me is getting in. Please message me if you'd like to want to talk to someone who understands your pain! Dylan Edited October 18, 2018 by DNeal57 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On their website it says they have provisional accreditation. Provisional accreditation IS full accreditation. Provisional accreditation is simply the only accrediting status a new program can receive. Lipscomb has met professional standards for every ARC-PA standard so don't let the "provisional" status deter you! They are just waiting for its first cohort of students to graduate to become Accreditation-Continued. More information can be found here if you're confused about the term: http://www.arc-pa.org/accreditation/provisional-accreditation/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
