2018PrePA Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 On 7/27/2018 at 9:56 AM, K8lin said: Provided nothing changes from last year, it is not MMI. They do group interviews, just like many other programs. Know yourself, know your application, know why you want to be a PA over anything else. You will be with a group of other students for part of the day, being interviewed by a couple faculty members. I personally liked this because its almost somehow less intimidating having your potential classmates right there, going through this interview with you. The rest of the interview day will be presentations, informative sessions, tours, and provided lunch at the cafeteria. Try to have fun! It is a beautiful campus, even when its 115 degrees out. Wow, thank you so much for your response!! That was really helpful. Knowing what to expect feels a lot better and I'm excited. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAtobe615 Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 (edited) Has anyone been taken off the waitlist for interviews yet? Edited August 2, 2018 by PAtobe615 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluej246 Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 For those interviewing on Monday, August 6th: I was wondering if anyone else interviewing wanted to meet the night before for dinner or something? Could be a nice way to have some familiar faces during the interview! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victory1322 Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 I've been accepted from the August 6th interview date! Checklist populated on my MWU portal yesterday evening and received the official acceptance offer this morning.

What do you think it would look like if you got rejected I received an email this morning. I’m not sure what your portal would look like if you were rejected . I think people last year who were waitlisted had things pop up underneath their applicant checklist versus the accepted checklist. I’m not 100% positive though.

panther23 Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 How many rounds of interviews have they had so far? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmrh442 Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 (edited) I was offered the August 2nd interview about a month ago but declined as I was attending another interview that day. I then accepted the next date offered and will be there September 13. I had a friend interview at the Chicago campus and they did it MMI style. Is it different for the Glendale campus?

When I checked the student portal, I went to the "Admissions" tab and then under the "Post Accepted" header there is a link for an "Accepted Checklist". When I clicked on this, there was a populated checklist that included the matriculation agreement/deposit, transcript requests as well as a checklist of all of their prerequisites and whether or not they have been completed. When I had checked this tab prior, it said something along the lines of "Only accepted students can see this checklist" so it should be pretty apparent if you have the checklist. Hope this helps!

Congratulations on the invite! The Glendale campus utilizes a group style interview. There are two faculty members interviewing you and two other applicants. It's pretty laid back overall, just know your application and why you want to be a PA specifically as opposed to any other healthcare provider (all cliche, I know ). Good luck!

I’ve never done a group interview so I’m a little confused as to how that will work...but overall I am super excited to interview. Crossing my fingers it goes well!

It was my first time doing a group interview as well and personally I preferred it over the previous MMI and panel style interviews I've done! With more people in the room it was more like a conversation, which helped me not to feel so nervous. You've made it this far so I'm sure you'll do great! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acar10 Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Accepted from the 8/6 interview! I was a reapplicant this year. Best piece of advice for those who don't hear back or receive a rejection letter--reach out to admissions and ask for advice on how to make your app stronger! They gave me great feedback, and I believe it is why I got in this year! Good luck! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skyells Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Interviewed on 8/3 and just got my alternative letter in the actual mail yesterday. My portal hasn't changed and I haven't got an email from them but just an actual letter in the mail. Super excited it was not a rejection letter. I was a little worried about that when I saw it in my mail Congrats to those that have gotten accepted! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at last year's posts, it seems that interviews were held as late as January for some applicants. I would assume interviews that late are likely for waitlisting Edited August 29, 2018 by Justnow 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy20035 Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 I'm interviewing on the 13th and am crazy nervous...this will be the first school I have interviewed for so I will have little experience prior. Anyone else in the same boat? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
