From what I know, I was part of the first group to be interviewed. I was invited around the first week of January, but I was out of state, so I was rescheduled Feb 4. So they probably are still sending out invites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ibars Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 I heard that they held interviews during 3rd week of December. Not sure how the selection process works at York. I don't think anyone has heard back so far (I could be wrong) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GCass Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 I didn’t realize they were accepting students already. I interviewed on december 19th and still haven’t heard back. Im extremely nervous because this is my #1 choice and am really hoping for an acceptance. I was told I may have to wait until May 31st and the wait is killing me.

I asked during my interview when I could expect to hear back and they said within a few weeks but still nothing. This is also my first choice and I was hoping to hear back from them before doing any more interviews but alas, we're still playing the waiting game. Hopefully we hear back soon and best of luck to you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bb704 Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 (edited) Whoever had their interview, can you tell me what your interview was like or how the day went? Was there any written essay that you needed to do or was it just general one-on-one questioning? Edited March 8, 2019 by bb704 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was there any written essay that you needed to do or was it just general one-on-one questioning? From what I was told, this is the first year there is no essay portion. My interview was with two professors and lasted no more than 30 minutes. They were very friendly and the questions were very fair. They asked about grades, experience, and why you want to be a PA. It was my first interview and they really helped make me less nervous. I loved the program and hope I get accepted. However like I said, the wait is long and stressful as they said I may not hear back until May 31st. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sallyhabsen Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 (edited) Hey! Just had my interview a few weeks ago but unfortunately got my rejection letter today. I was thrown off from the first question and it ruined my flow for the rest of the interview. I just wanted to help out other people in case they get blindsighted during the interview and because this was my first interview and I didn’t know what to expect. Everyone I’ve spoken to who has gotten interviewed told me it’s pretty simple and laid back, I even got to speak to current students right before my interview and everything matched up with what was said in this thread such as the questions they would tend to ask and I did mock interviews and read books but I guess I didn’t prepare enough. But I was thrown off because there were so many technical and situational questions in my interview. Things I thought would be more appropriate for maybe for a PA job interview or be taught during PA school but I guess they really want you to know everything beforehand in as much detail. I knew my answers became weak at these technical questions because I was underprepared for them. I got asked first The role of PAs in clinical setting and surgical setting and how this is different and how much say the physician has in both of these roles regular questions of Why PA, why not NP/med school, GPA, academic experiences, PCE hours If a patient didn’t like the doctor what would you do (which also came with like 500 situational what if questions to every single answer I provided) If I can be emotionally supported by my family and friends and if they understand the struggle of PA school If the physician is on vacation what can the PA do or can they even practice if the physician is on vacation (another one that came with follow up situationals) what is a PA students typical day (which this is different in each school and the best I could answer) what do you do for fun? Do you consult the doctor when giving a prescription, if you give a prescription and the patient has a bad reaction what do you do, should you have asked the doctor beforehand do you have to talk about your treatment plans all the time with the doctor thats all I can remember. I hope I’m able to at least someone who has an interview coming up. Can others who interviewed let me know if they had similar questions?

Things I thought would be more appropriate for maybe for a PA job interview or be taught during PA school but I guess they really want you to know everything beforehand in as much detail. I knew my answers became weak at these technical questions because I was underprepared for them. Firstly, they didn’t ask to introduce myself which I had prepared for so I couldn’t really give much background about myself. I also felt as though I couldn’t give my full responses that I prepared because of the way they asked the questions where they were looking for something specific. The people interviewing me were also fairly new, working for the past 2 years at York. I got asked first The role of PAs in clinical setting and surgical setting and how this is different and how much say the physician has in both of these roles, it was more detailed and specific than what I said but that’s the basic idea of the question regular questions of Why PA, why not NP/med school, GPA, academic experiences, PCE hours why did I only apply to PA schools in NYC, why didn’t I apply anywhere else because I can be a PA at any state so why would I only apply to 7 schools in NYC (the manner the interviewer asked this sounded very condescending also, and he wrote down every school I mentioned, be prepared to have a good explanation for each school) If a patient didn’t like the doctor what would you do (which also came with like 500 situational what if questions to every single answer I provided) kept asking if patient only wanted to see me and only me what would I do no matter what option I suggested If I can be emotionally supported by my family and friends and if they understand the struggle of PA school (basically that you’ll have no life during it and that I can’t work during it) If the physician is on vacation what can the PA do or can they even practice if the physician is on vacation (another one that came with 500 follow up situationals) what is a PA students typical day (which this is different in each school and the best I could answer is that it’s a strict schedule of classes for the didactic year based on their website information about the class times being mostly from 8-5 , but they seemed to want specific of what a PA a student does all day from morning to night) what do you do for fun? Do you consult the doctor when giving a prescription, if you give a prescription and the patient has a bad reaction what do you do, should you have asked the doctor beforehand do you have to talk about your treatment plans all the time with the doctor thats all I can remember. I hope I’m able to at least someone who has an interview coming up. Can others who interviewed let me know if they had similar questions? Because I spoke to the current students and they said nothing out of the blue just straightforward questions that I listed under regular questions. I probably was just underprepared and wasn’t expecting the questions I mentioned Wow, thank you so much for sharing! That does seem really intense... I have an interview with them coming up and this was super helpful. I wish you all the best on your journey to becoming a PA! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krsnkm Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 “The Admissions Committee is still in the review process. Your application status will be emailed during the first week of April. We thank you for your patience and for choosing The CUNY School of Medicine” has as anyone gotten this email? Does this mean that I probably didn’t get an interview invite? Seems like people who might get an invite are getting different kind of emails... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got that email too. I’m pretty sure they finalized the class already. I don’t think they’ll be anymore interviews. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
