PAStudent9000 Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 Got accepted 9/21 just wondering if anyone knows much about Keiser? This is my first application cycle and I just want to make sure I am going to a good college. Cannot find too much on them on the internet and they only give 1 week to accept.

I would definitely contact that other school you interviewed at to ask about your status, or if they will at least know when they’ll notify you by. Maybe then it’ll be easier to make a decision. I personally have only heard great things about the PA Program at keiser from former students. That being said, they are on probation. I don’t really know the reason for that, but it is definitely the one thing that’s made me hesitant about attending keiser, should I get accepted. If anyone has info about why they might be on probation and if they will be approved by the boards, please drop it in the comments. Once again, congrats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PAstudent0320 Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 (edited) They had their ARC-PA accreditation review earlier this year and the final decision should be available sometime in October. So if the accreditation is continued, no worries. If they lose accreditation then the program will close. You will have to ask if the seat deposit will be refundable in that case. The best thing to do is to accept the seat but continue interviewing. That way you won’t lose out on other offers, just in case the accreditation is withdrawn.

PrePAStudent2020 Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 Hello all, I got accepted on 9/21 and I am a bit hesitant to accept since the program is currently on probation. I was thinking of emailing Nikki to find out if I would be refunded if the program does get shut down but I don't know if that would be inappropriate. What do you guys think? Thanks!

I'm in the same boat! I think someone mentioned they hear back from this years review in October, so if they do close we would just need the deposit refunded. I don't think Nikki would mind if you emailed her though she seemed down to earth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to update this, I ended up emailing Nikki and she said that Keiser's website will be updated with the ARC's decision regarding accreditation status some time in October. She also said that fees should be refunded if the program is closed. Hope this helps! Has anyone who got into the program accepted or declined their seat yet? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did she suggest at all that she thought they would be re-approved? Or didn’t really give any clues? Haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
