marissajanel Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 Congrats to everyone getting accepted!! I talked to the admissions person about a week ago and she said they just had done another review on next interview candidates (March 5th and March 7th interview) and she said I would hear back from her in 1-2 weeks at the latest. This week would be 2 so I’m hoping we hear something soon!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kristinamk94 Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 For those who have been accepted, is there a Facebook group/page where everyone can join to get to connect with fellow classmates?! Also, those who got accepted, how soon did you receive your admissions packet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It basically had housing and loan information. I think as the start date gets closer we will get more information on everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeremyhallpa Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 Hi all, For those accepted, would you mind sharing academic background and clinical experience. I'm trying to get a feel for what they are looking for. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scribetopa007 Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 (edited) I realized after I made the page that it’s supposed to be a closed group instead ... so I guess I should delete it lol. Someone mentioned that a staff member was going to create a group for us, maybe once more interviews are finished?

StevenNBoston Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Out of curiosity, how do people feel about them not having a cadaver lab? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish they did, but we should still be fine without it. I'm sure they will have some sort of high-tech digital cadaver computer instead? Maybe we could also see if there are any other labs that rent out cadaver labs for like a week or so in tampa. I know UT PA program will be using one in tampa somewhere. Maybe we could get in there too if they don't have an exclusive contract or something?? not sure... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
