And yes, they sent an email with the subject "UF School of Physician Assistant Studies: Application Decision". The email says that I can request information about why my application was rejected, which I will do if my interviews over the next few months do not work out. Good luck! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure why you would be rejected to early in the cycle. Do you mind sharing the feedback you received? Best of luck. You only need one yes. You got this.

I guess I meant that it just might not have been the best fit, and they might have found that through my essays. I will share the feedback! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PREPAFL96 Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 I just got declined. CGPA 3.49 SGPA 3.52 PCH 6000+ but GRE 296 (I think this is why) GOOD LUCK EVERYONE! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChefKibbles Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 Hey everyone, for this school under that website used to fill out additional information does anyone have an option to load unofficial transcripts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
csantos1794 Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 They received my application and forwarded it to the admission committee for review on 5/26. I took the CASPer test in early June so had those results sent over too which is probably why I haven't heard back since. Just waiting to see what they will say afterwards. That was probably the only thing holding it up from being checked out by the "higher admissions" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was wondering when you submitted and how long after confirming they've received your application did they send the rejection email? Thanks in advance and good luck I submitted 6/16 verified 6/22 and received rejection 7/8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LianaJawad Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 Going a little stir crazy... my UF “received” email came on 6/8 and nothing since. I've been waiting for the ”second level” email. The anticipation is killing me! Good luck to all! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaiteKakes Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 I submitted CAPSA on 6/5 (CASPer was already completed) and received a confirmation email from them on 6/8. Still haven't heard ANYTHING, not even "secondary review". What does this mean?!?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aselph Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 I thought I’d make you all feel better. I interviewed last year and here is my timeline. 6/3 application received by UF 7/22 Forwarded for second level eval 10/21 Offer for interview. They have a lot of applicants. It can take a while. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buttercakes Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 (edited) Hey y'all! Just wanted to post that I received an email today around 8am MST, saying they are interested in offering me an interview contingent upon a review of my Statistics class syllabus. The end of the email said: "Please provide this requested information to the Admissions Committee at your earliest convenience. We cannot offer you an interview until your coursework is verified." I am hoping this means good things! I am so excited to hear back! Edited July 15, 2020 by moldyflower7 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
