Kgphysicianassistant Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 Hello! I just gave up my spot for the 2/20/2020 interview due to another acceptance at my top program. Good luck to everyone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashleyyy113 Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 Hi everyone, Just curious if I were to apply to this program, where most people are planning to live. I know living right in Boston is expensive but if anyone has looked into it, or if there good areas outside of boston that would still be an easy commute, and if you are planning on taking the T, bus , etc?? From what I have read MCPHS boston doesnt provide any sort of housing correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I have read MCPHS boston doesnt provide any sort of housing correct? I am attending this program in the fall and just completed the apartment search this past weekend! I looked at Mission Hill, Fenway, Back Bay, Roxbury and South End and found reasonable housing all within a 10-20 minute walk to campus. If you have any specific questions feel free to pm me! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skiier3300 Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 Hi all, I have an interview tomorrow morning and am trying to learn more about the program. I was moved off the interview waitlist on Monday so I feel like I haven't had enough time to do a lot of preparation. Specifically, does anyone know about the culture of the program, the family feel, or anything that makes the program stand out? Everything I am finding on their website feels pretty generic. Thanks!

I think the big thing they are proud of is that Harvard's cadaver lab is utilized for Gross Anatomy. I personally went to undergrad here so like I did not dig for unique things or something may be unique and I am so used to it. For culture a lot of people liken the whole school as very high school vibes just because you see a lot of the same faces and many people know of people. I personally do not feel this but I also do not talk to many people so idk. But it is definitely smaller than most schools given that it is only 2 buildings. As for the program family feel I mean there is 100 people so I doubt everyone is going to like everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is your top choice to go to their 3+3 program and get your PA there as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PracticingPAtience Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 Hi all! Just curious if anyone knew when final decision went outside or if there’s more interviews after March. I’m assuming I’m getting rejected because it’s been radio silence for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I interviewed in January and they said we'd be hearing back the first week of March once all the interviews were complete! So hopefully we will hear back by 3/6 or sooner. I know the last interview was 2/20. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexK4 Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 Has anyone received updates via mail or their online portal? I think you have to scroll all the way to the bottom of the online portal to see the actual update. Mine just says "your admission interview is complete," and I have not received any mail as of today. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
