Yes this helps thank you, when will they have their first graduating class and when are they planning to have full accreditation? I didn't apply to this program because I was nervous that if they didn't get accredited that I would waste time and money.

I’m in the first class and we graduate August 2021. Personally, I believe they're very on top of things and accreditation is very important to them (since without it they can’t have a program). Their program in Erie has been around for decades and is successful, so that’s what helped reassure me as well. They are accredited though and we are fully eligible to take the PANCE. The website link above may help explain it better.

Oh okay, I guess I just didn't understand that provisional accreditation is still an accredited program and that you can still take the PANCE and work as a PA after. Thank you for clarifying and good luck to you!

It was a difficult decision but I gave up my acceptance today for a seat in another program. Good luck to everyone still waiting to hear!

Just got an email offering interview for March 10. I applied back in June so I had assumed I was not going to hear back from them. Does anyone know if they are interviewing for seats in the class or the waitlist? Thanks!

I don’t! They just ask us if any of us would want to help interview and that’s about it haha

I received my acceptance yesterday after interviewing on 8/1/19. Don’t give up yet if you interviewed earlier in the process!

[Nktrio11]

Has anyone heard anything for Gannon about how COVID-19 is going to affect decisions on acceptance or future interviews? 

[mlucianox3]

Declined my acceptance yesterday as I've already started at a program in January. Best of luck everyone!
