When you log in to zoom, you will be with other candidates while they take role then they will send you to your interview room where you will interview with 1-2 faculty. You will be asked 4 questions and you have 5 minutes to answer every question. It is seriously so fast. I have to maintain the integrity of the questions obviously, but my best advice is to have like 5 personal stories that you can relate to ANYTHING they may ask you. If you can find a way to relate your responses, no matter what the question, to why that’s going to make you a successful PA student/ why you’re ready for PA school or why you want to be a PA, they will love that! Oh I see, thank you very much for the explanation! Also congratulations on your acceptance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KortneyDaly Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Received an interview invite today via email, scheduled for 3/4. FYI, there were 4 other interview slots for that day when I signed up via the portal; it did not look like there were any other interview days available (but they may open them up later?). Best of luck to those with upcoming interviews and still waiting to hear something. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ToriG Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 interviewed on 02/11 and was told I would hear back in mid-March. I wasn't a fan of the interview, only 4 super basic questions. I didn't feel like the interviewer tried to connect with me, I left the interview feeling weird, maybe that's a sign this school isn't the best choice for me 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did they say how soon we could hear back? Or is everyone just expected to hear back in March? /: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zebra1025 Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 Anyone have words of encouragement? Received an interview invite. Although stats are below average... should I be worried about rejection? Or any positive words! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hence, I would take what I say with a grain of salt. Getting an interview is a big thing, so congrats! I read a few posts from the previous years to get a gist of the timeline. Based on what I have read, it seems that for the most part that they focus on the interview after. Since they base their interview dates on GPA, I'd assume most of the people that are interviewing on your date have similar stats. Additionally, there were a good chunk of people who interviewed on the last date in previous years that got in! So, I personally think you got a chance!

Out of all my interviews, I felt I only really connected with one and felt that was the program for me. That's where I am going and I am beyond happy with my choice!! The interview is a big part. Remember, the interview is also about if YOU accept THEM and if their program is a fit for you. Good luck! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KortneyDaly Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 I accepted an invite to attend another PA program and cancelled my interview on 3/4... I sure hope it goes to another pre-PA hopeful. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like 3 are moderators from the class of 2022 but was wondering bc of the other 50 are accepted students than half the class is already filled which should give the remaining people who are waiting to hear back a realistic idea of how many seats are open. I know they say "90% of students" hear back in mid-march but im assuming almost all are rejections and waitlists. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know they say "90% of students" hear back in mid-march but im assuming almost all are rejections and waitlists. Out of the 54 of us I think less than 10 are applicants from this cycle, the rest of us are from the class of 2022! Most applicants do hear back mid-March even those that are accepted so don't lose hope if you weren't accepted yet. I know its a stressful time for those waiting to hear back but you put in the work and did all you could do at this point! 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard back from admissions the last cycle around March 19th, so still hold out hope! Ya'll should hear back soonish! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
