Hi guys! Goodluck! I submitted and was verified yesterday! Hopefully we hear back soon!

  • 2 weeks later...

I was verified 5/26 and received an e-mail 5/27 from Albany saying my application is being reviewed by two admissions committee members. Said it could take 7-14 business days to process and make a decision regarding an interview. Good luck everyone!

I applied the same day as you (14th) and I'm waiting to hear back as well. Last year, they sent the first set of interview invites out on May 29th... If this year follows the same timeframe, that's tomorrow! I am very nervous but excited at the prospect of hearing back so soon. Best of luck to everyone who applied!

Has anyone heard anything about an interview. I have just heard my application was under review ?

I’m in the same boat as you. Got the email that my app was under review 2 weeks ago and haven’t heard anything yet! Anxiously waiting as I really like this program and the prospect of interviewing is exciting! Best of luck!

I got an email saying my application is on hold until I call them regarding the ESL questions. 

The same happened to me. She wasn’t sure why it was put on hold since ESL wasn’t something I filled out. But it all got sorted out when I called! 

Good luck to everyone applying this cycle! I'm currently a PA student at AMC, so feel free to reach out if you have any questions regarding the program!

I believe that the admissions committee is meeting this weekend, so interview invites should follow.

I called but no one was in the office. Had to leave a message.

Wow that is very surprising based on your stats. You seem like a very high level candidate in my opinion. I hope you get some interviews to other programs and accepted to a program.
