They just sent me a follow-up email to schedule an interview and I’m super nervous. I agree with people above - it comes down to more about you than your stats! I got an interview and accepted with stats lower than some people who were denied earlier in this forum. We are all good applicants, they just are looking for certain things and your essays and interviews will make a big difference! Good luck!! If you want my stats: cGPA: 3.76, sGPA: 3.5ish, 2200 PCE, 20 shadowing, 150 volunteer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atwasserman Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 Hi! Has anyone received an interview date for the dual MPH/MMS program yet? LMK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pa98173jd Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 Has anyone on the waitlist heard back? I kind of dislike that it appears that Arcadia doesn't reject anyone after an interview and just waitlists students. Like am I on a waitlist of 200+ students because of this fact? How can I ensure I'm still a memorable applicant at that point? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if all 200 of us were also offered “a top seat” haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ninjahmc Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 Interviewed yesterday and they clarified that the rumors that seats are filled are in fact false. They assured that seats are still available at both campuses and that if you're waitlisted don't think negatively of it since every year a number of students are taken off the waitlist. Not sure if there is a ranking system with the waitlist but beggars can't be choosers . Stay positive and hope for the best. Good luck everyone ! 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I figured when I was waitlisted that they still had some spots left, just probably not many. The waitlist email mentions that they are offering a top seat on the waitlist as they "are unable to accept further applications into the class at this time" and it seems everyone got that email and assumed that meant the class is full.

I sent back the essay about my interest in the MPH program on 9/10 and it's been silence since. Same here. I got an email from graduate admissions the following week basically saying “thank you for your interest in our MPH program” but have not yet received word on the interview. I know they mentioned in the original interview email that they are planning for a fall interview, so I’m hopeful we will hear something soon! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onedayordayone Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 To any of the students who’ve accepted the invitation to the class and have paid both deposits, have you reviewed any other info about the program besides “we’ve received your deposit”?

Sawal Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Hi! I applied to Arcadia's PA Program on 8/31. I'm currently a senior undergraduate student at Arcadia also. I got a confirmation email back but have not heard about an interview. Has anyone else heard back that applied that late? Thanks and congrats to everyone who was accepted!

nhcr16 Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Hi everyone, I applied mid-august and received an email for interview consideration on 8/19. However, I have not received an email for a date/time for the interview and it has been over a month. I have been patient because I saw posts saying it could take 4-6 weeks to receive an email back with a time for the interview, but it seems pretty late now and I am wondering if anyone else who heard back 8/19 is also waiting for an email with the interview date/time? Congrats to everyone so far who had applied and been waitlisted or accepted! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm nervous I applied too late looking at everyone who was already accepted or waitlisted (congrats to you all!!). But fingers crossed we might get an interview soon!!

PAlizard Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 Hey all! I have decided to give up my seat at Arcadia, as I was accepted to a program that was a better fit for me. I hope this opens a spot up for one of y'all on the waitlist. Good luck!! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danianderson Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 I just received an interview invite. I applied a LONG time ago. They confirmed that there are still seats open. any one know what the 15 min interview is? Is it truly an interview or more info? And the “follow up zoom interview”? Thanks in advance! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
