Stix804358938 Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 Hey everyone! I just wanted to give some insight on what the interview was like for those of you that have later interview dates: First you start with a presentation on the program, then you split into groups of 5 or 6 people (I think there was like 20-25 interviewees on my day). You rotate to 4 different stations: group session with current students, facility tour, one-on-one interview, and a group session where they ask you to work through a scenario with your group. It was all pretty informal, especially the interview part. Most of the interviewers are faculty members/professors, and they're really approachable and try to make it more like a conversation as opposed to an interview. Overall it was pretty relaxed and went smoothly. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riveraje7 Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 would it be dumb or too late to apply still? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I signed up they had interview dates well into the spring semester so I don't think it would hurt if you like the program Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjm515 Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Hey guys, I am on crutches and can't walk too long on them yet but I have an interview on Wednesday. How long is the facility tour? Do those of you who have been to the interview already think it will be doable for me on crutches? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The facility is pretty condensed and honestly it was more standing/elevators than walking lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catsandscrubs Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Hey guys! So the portal for interview dates closed for me and if anyone is planning on giving up their December 5th date please send me a message. I would greatly appreciate it! And if anyone would prefer my January 31st time and would want to switch let me know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlissaTucc1004 Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 When I checked this morning there was one more spot for Dec. 5. If you can't access it online I would call the admissions office and have them check for you. Best of luck! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drmelzar Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 For those that have heard back after your interview, did you first hear via the portal? or email/phone call? Also, has anyone heard back from the November 26th interview? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catsandscrubs Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Hey all! I just got back from the Dec 5th interview and LOVED it. Super laid back and the questions are very relaxed and focus on coursework and what drew you to the PA profession. They said we would hear back in 2-3 weeks. Best of luck to everyone! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teebee86 Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 The “your status” section on the portal changes to “congratulations, (name)” and under it goes from ‘application completed’ to ‘we are pleased to offer you admission...’ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
