I was put on the waitlist yesterday and am still trying to stay hopeful after my interviews. Congrats to you guys!! I interviewed in June, got put on the waitlist, and then received a phone call yesterday. Good luck with everything! I thought for sure I wasn't going to come off of the waitlist, but I did, so definitely stay hopeful! 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laferri2 Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 Does the fact that people being taken off the wait-list mean that the online program has already filled all seats prior to the Sept 1 deadline? Also, does anyone know if Yale weighs the science GPA or BCP gpa more heavily in the admissions process? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe they have a certain percentage of seats for each section of time throughout the interview process. Unsure about the GPA stuff though.

ChloeLBurrow Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Has anyone been waitlisted and then offered an acceptance? If so, did you do anything while being waitlisted as far as contacting the school? Do they disclose your waitlist number? I was placed on the waitlist this week and this program is my top choice by far, so I would really like to do anything I can to get a seat! Thank you.

MSRDCSSD Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 I’m so happy to see that someone was accepted off the waitlist! I was offered acceptance for the upcoming class but shortly after found out we are expecting and I’m due the week class starts. After so much consideration we decided it was best for me to defer my enrollment til the following year. Having gone through the “waitlist” process last year and not getting in, and then finally getting accepted this year, I’m so happy that it seems like my spot went to someone that was waitlisted. Congratulations!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laferri2 Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 As I am getting closer to completing my CASPA application (should be submitting for verification this weekend) I am getting more nervous about my chances with Yale. It's my top choice program, but I feel like my GPA (2.88 undergrad, 3.1 cumulative undergrad/post-bac, 3.8 last 60, 3.62 in my masters, and 3.4 sGPA) is going to disqualify me, even with 14000 hours experience as a medical SLP and a 320 GRE. Most of the ranges that I am seeing show the minimum accepted GPAs at around 3.3-3.4. Is anyone else applying with a sub-3.4? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ihopeigetin Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 I know someone asked this earlier but did not get an answer... What is to be expected of the academic interviews? And how long after the interviews were you notified of either acceptance or waitlist? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jchaconas Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 I submitted my application August 1. I haven't heard anything yet. My CASPer test is tonight. did any of you get contacted before the CASPer or did they wait until after? Jodi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laferri2 Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 (edited) Completed my CASPA application yesterday at noon, I was verified at 5am this morning. Per CASPA, my cumulative sGPA is 3.09 and my cumulative undergrad is 3.05, my overall GPA with my masters taken into account is 3.16. Per CASPA, my last 60 credits is 3.7 and my pre-requisite GPA is 3.6. GRE 165/155 and 14000 hours patient care as a medical SLP. Not feeling super great about my chances unless they put extra weight on the upward trend. Edit: Just got the notification that my application is under review by the committee. Hopefully I hear back soon! Edited August 29, 2019 by laferri2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laferri2 Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 Just got my rejection letter, given that they didn't take it into committee until Thursday afternoon, and Monday was labor day, it looks like I was pretty much rejected as soon as they looked at me. Not really sure what else I can do to improve my stats. Maybe I need to just give up on this. I've taken about 50 credits and dumped over 10000 dollars into this in the last few years and it only changed my GPA from 2.89 to 3.09. I have a master's degree and 14000 hours of high level patient care. All I get is rejections for two years of applications. There isn't really anything else I can do to get in.

All you need is one school! I believe this program puts an emphasis on the CASPer. How confident did you feel after it? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As the other poster mentioned, do not give up if this is what you really want. I don't know if you follow any PA Facebook groups, but there are people there who got in after FIVE cycles! Have you looked into schools that focus on the last 40-60 credits for your upward trend? Did you apply early this year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How has it been for those of us who already interviewed? Good luck! I interviewed in July and have been waitlisted since then. The interviews are pretty conversational, so just be yourself.
