kkpac Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 Hey everyone, applying next cycle but had a question about PCE. Does GW ask for the number of hours at the time of application, or the number of projected hours at a certain date?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And for those who just interviewed on Sept. 7, how was it like? Its a pretty intense day but you get lots of good information. You get there around 8am and leave around 3pm. They split you into groups and based on those groups you do the activities for the day in different orders. The activities include a general presentation of the program, the MMI, a writing prompt, a tour, an alumni panel, lunch, a first year student panel, and a second year student panel. Best of luck! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am planning to attend the informal meet and greet but am nervous about showing up late. I’m assuming since it’s optional that it’s okay to stop in anytime between 6-8 but wanted to see if anybody had a little more information (my nerves are obviously kicking in). I’ll be going there straight from the airport. You can show up to the meet and greet at any time. Interviewees and students come and go throughout the night. Remember, it is an informal, optional event to socialize with students. There is NO need to stress about making it on time; some interviewees can't make it at all.

From the interview day I got the sense that they very much look at the student as a whole. The GPA, GRE score, clinical experience, interviewing skills and also how well you align with their mission and values. However, since not all PA school require they GRE and they do, obviously it carries some weight. There were some other programs that I interviewed at that required the GRE but they specifically said they don't emphasize it much because it hasn't been very telling. However, GW didn't make any comments like that so I think they probably emphasize it more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They said they had a cancellation so thank you to you and others who respond to decline so they can offer the slots to others. We all know how difficult it is to get to this point in the process. This is my second time so I'm very excited! I submitted May 23 and went under review June 11. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

esakarcan Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 For those of you who have received an Interview, what does your GW login page look like? Mine just says 100% complete, “under review” and says my GRE scores were received. My gre scores don’t show up on CASPA though as in GW isn’t listed as a recipient?? But the GWU student portal says they’re good to go. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luna721 Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 just received an interview on 10/5! i can't wait! for those who have already interviewed: what is the best place to stay? nearby hotels are pretty pricey but I am willing to pay the extra money, if it makes the whole trip easier. Is uber a valid option in exchange for a further and cheaper hotel? what is the best way to prepare for the writing prompt? is it similar to the GRE writing portion? what to expect?? 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
