Can you explain how the didactic material is presented; is it systems based? What are the expectations of the students ow that all classes are online? Are you allowed to watch lectures on your own time or are you required to participate in all classes during class time? Finally, are you living in on campus housing or off campus housing; if on campus, can you share your experience during the pandemic ( how is the school keeping students safe, etc)? Thank you again for answering all these questions. Yup, no problem! Yes - it is systems based. The first semester, however, is really just building a foundation for more clinical material in the fall and spring. As far as expectations, it is mixed recording and live lecture. Anatomy is mainly recordings, including recorded dissections since we were unable to do them in person. The majority is live to promote more interaction, but all of the lectures are recorded so you can go back and re-watch - or if something comes up and are unable to attend you won't be missing anything. I'm living off-campus and I can't say for sure if on-campus housing is offered for grad students. Here is some more info on the response to COVID-19 though: https://smartrestart.wisc.edu/ As far as the SMPH, we will be attending class in person 1-2 times per week in the fall for labs and other essential things. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wltaylor 24 Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 Does any one know when the invites go out? I know one said December, but I didn't know if that was for sure or if they send them out any earlier. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jcPA19 6 Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 (edited) If I remember correctly, interview invites came out on December 10th or 11th of last year. I'm currently in UW's Traditional Distance Education PA program. I'm happy to answer any questions if people have them. Good luck everyone!

I've been accepted at another program but their accreditation fell through, and have interviewed at another (currently waiting for a yay or nay.)

The other schools I applied to had such a high volume of applications that I wasn't even offered an interview. I am hoping and praying for UW to reach out with an interview invite but if not, then I graduate with my MPH next august so that Counts right?! You're going to make it!!!

I think they said to send one email with all updates by September 1st. But I could be wrong.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
