prepa911 Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 Is our application considered holistically after we interview or is whether or not we are placed into the competitive applicant pool solely based on how we did during the interview?

I think it's a primarily based on the interview because if you are interviewing you are a competitive applicant with good stats. The interview will show if you fit well with their program or not.

If I am understanding correctly... UOP does not participate in rolling admissions. So as long as your application is complete and verified to UOP's and CASPA's standards, respectively, prior to the deadline, it does not matter if you consider July to be "late in [the] cycle". TLDR: Apply if you can make their deadline. If you do, everyone has an equal chance of being interviewed and receiving a spot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christine616 Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 ^ May I ask for you stats? You can pm me if you like CASPA Submitted July 2nd Caspa Verified July 2nd Confirmed received by UOP at July 6th. I thought they would take to review apps since they are supposedly non-rolling but the fact that they are so quick is even more nerve wracking. *Fingers Crossed* Next step is to worry about the interview I guess. How much notice do they give you? I've been mainly working on my apps so I'm not prepared for any interview at this moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I submitted on June 4th, passed initial screening on June 15th, and got an interview invite on June 18th. The interview was for July 1st so they gave me a little less than 2w notice. My stats are: cGPA: 3.67 sGPA: 3.66 PCE: 2,800 hours as a MA/Scribe/Surgery Coordinator HCE: 3,300 hours as a Laboratory Technician and hospital intern Volunteer: 60 hours Shadowing: ~20 hours 2 LOR's from Physicians and 1 LOR from a previous supervisor. Best of luck to everyone interviewing next week and those still waiting to hear back!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

christinat Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 CASPA submitted and verified 7/9 Received application confirmation 7/10 Rejected, no interview 7/14 (I met the minimum requirements and had over 1,000 PCE hours but still too low compared to the applicant pool so I unfortunately did not pass the initial screening) Good luck and congrats to everyone who received interviews!
