HopefulNpositive Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 Lol we just can’t help ourselves! I think what pushes me to keep checking is where it says once you get an interview invite you have 72 hrs to respond. It makes me panic lol. For no good reason since I check it every half hour and would respond in seconds, there is no chance I would miss it!!!! LmaoOmg I feel the same way! 72 hrs to respond, okay did it go into spam box, inbox, trash? Just making sure. Lol. This forum cheers me on with notifications from future classmates going through the same rollercoaster of emotions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PAFarhat2B Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 Hello my fellow applicants and hopefully classmates. From Dearborn Michigan. This forum brings me so much peace of mind and I do not feel like I am alone.

Good luck everyone 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PAgoalgetter Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 Hello, all applicants and perhaps future classmates! California applicant here. I just sent in my CASPA application today (what a relief). Now I am in the verification waiting game. I love this forum so far, useful info, no drama, or stats comparison. Good luck, everyone! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joemonkey Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 Does the June 1st priority deadline pertain to the primary application only? Does CASPer have to be submitted also? Does the priority deadline require the supplemental application too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is my understanding that to meet the priority deadline your Caspa application including the Yale supplemental portion must be complete, verified, and received at Yale by June 1st. On the supplemental portion it ask what date did you take or plan to take the Casper test but taking the Casper test is only highly recommended not a requirement so you do not HAVE to have it completed prior to submission to meet the deadline. I hope that makes sense. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emilymuff Posted May 17, 2020 Author Share Posted May 17, 2020 I agree with @Krystalized, I think that Yale is going to wait until all of the priority deadline applications are in before handing out interview invites. Speaking of interviews, I wonder what the personal interview is going to be like, vs the academic interview. I mean, I obviously understand the differences, but I wonder what more besides "tell me about yourself" is going to be asked during the personal interview. Maybe our PCE and HCE? I'm def overthinking it haha (excited and hopeful nerves). Though for the "tell me about yourself"-type question, which I would think would be asked that in both interviews, I wonder if we tailor it based on if we are in the academic or personal interview? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emilymuff Posted May 17, 2020 Author Share Posted May 17, 2020 Is this program the only school in which you all are applying? It is for me (it's my only option haha cue "Under Pressure" music") No pressure to answer, just trying to keep the convo going since we all are going crazy over our emails haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think your transcripts or LORs have to be in by the date either. When I asked that is what they told me but I would definitely clarify if I were you by calling admissions.

Abhowe89 Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 (edited) Don't stress over it. I'm sure they truly just want to get to know you as a person to make sure you are a good fit for tbe program. Honestly this is my number one choice based on how I grew up I see what good they want us to do in the world, and what I want to give back to the areas around here. IT WILL BE FINE! BREATHE! We all got this. Edited May 17, 2020 by Abhowe89 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like they accept one outstanding prerequisite. How long after submitting primary application did you get the supplemental app?

thelongglass Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 Hey there, everyone! I am finishing up the supplemental application and waiting for one more evaluation before submitting hopefully next weekend. You have created a very positive, supportive group here! Otherwise, I probably would have read for info and not posted! I hope to have you all as classmates! I applied and was interviewed at the University of Utah last year, but wasn't offered a spot. It is really hard to be limited on PA school options based on geography. That is a huge reason why I love Yale's program and format. I imagine a lot of you are in the same boat as me, either can't commit to where you will be for 3 years, or unable/unwilling to uproot your families from your homes to fulfill your dream of being a PA. Am I wrong? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the fact that you have interviewed before will be a huge help with your Yale interview. If you have any interview advice I would love it. Good luck on getting it all finished up and ready to submit!!! Rooting for you! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bri23w Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 Is there any prep I should do before I take the CASPer exam? I'm planning on taking it 5/20 but not sure how I should prepare! Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
