uniqueanika Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 Has anyone decided to reach out to PCOM regarding their application? I don't know whether or not I should, because most schools tend to frown upon it, because eventually (whenever that is) THEY reach out to you.

KLRPrePA Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 (edited) Hi guys! I was wondering if anyone could give some insight about the interview? This will be my first one and it’s coming up on Tuesday and I was wondering when they provide further details regarding the schedule, zoom, etc. Also, you don’t have to go into too much detail but are there asking any ethical questions? I was wondering if I should brush up on some ethics prior to the interview. Thank you Edited October 22, 2020 by KLRPrePA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm also one of those students who never heard back anything. I was going to just assume that I didn't get in, but then I realized they do invite people to interview as late as January so...I dunno. I will let y'all know if they respond. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got two emails with times of the welcome video call and my individual interview that you should be receiving with the link for them! The first part was more of a get to know the candidates and kind of a little pep talk! I then had my individual interview with 2 of the faculty members which lasted around 20-30 minutes. I didn’t personally get any ethics questions! Hope this helps and good luck 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was the interview more laid back and conversational or more cut and dry where they just asked you questions and recorded your answers? Also, I’ve never used the google meet program that they use and I assume that I don’t need to download anything beforehand? Thanks again for your input! I haven’t seen much about interviews on here so you’ve been extremely helpful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest dean227 Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 I applied July 7th and I haven't heard anything back. How many interview invites are they planning on sending out because I'm getting nervous here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been accepted at three programs and have other invites, but PCOM remains my first choice. No idea what to do! But I heard they're interviewing well into January and maybe even February.

Hi there, I was a little thrown off with the format too but the link is right above the phone number! Just under where it says "join with Google meet". Hope this helps!

Hey I haven’t heard anything yet either but I believe they send all rejections out at once after they complete interviews, which I think go until February.
