scottrose Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 Hey y’all, My name is Scott Rose and I am the new student co-coordinator or the Gardner-Webb PA program along with Anna Henderson. This thread is for you to ask questions regarding the program, the application process, or just about Gardner-Webb. On this forum we ask you to refrain from sharing personal information such as your application, if you got an interview, acceptance status, etc. Please be patient with Anna and I as we are currently in courses, so some questions may not be answered immediately. Many questions may be answered reviewing the programs website: https://gardner-webb.edu/academic-programs-and-resources/colleges-and-schools/health-sciences/schools-and-departments/physician-assistant-studies/index. Feel free to reach us here in this forum or email us at gwunewstudent@gmail.com Best of luck! Scott Rose, PA-S 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaschaRochelle Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 Hello, I was using myPAbox and on there it states that the program is on probation. However I have not been able to find anything on the programs website, but it does state to be a continuing program. Would you be able to clarify this? If it is on probation, what is the reason that it is on probation? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi, I attended a virtual open house for Gardner-Webb back in April and the staff clarified that the program is no longer on probation. I hope this helps!

The official statement and information can be found at: https://gardner-webb.edu/academic-programs-and-resources/colleges-and-schools/health-sciences/schools-and-departments/physician-assistant-studies/about-us/accreditation/index. Hope this helps! Scott Rose, PA-S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talmage Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 Hello, I have been excited about Gardner-Webb's program and had questions about the clinical phase of the program. Where are the clinical sites, who schedules them, and what elective SCPE's are available? Also, what laptop have people had the most success with in the program? I am looking to buy a new laptop, and I now some programs require or recommend windows or mac. Some students also prefer a mac if the program utilizes iPads. Thanks!

The SCPE question is a really great question post acceptance for the clinical team. When it comes to the computer- the program currently recommends anything with Windows 10 or Mac OS High Sierra/ Mojave. However, this is subject to change. I personally use a Mac and I like it because I do utilize an iPad as well, especially since being virtual. The iPad is not a part of the program requirements or even recommendations, solely my preference for note taking. I would say, though, my class is probably split about 50/50 using mac vs pc so it is truly personal preference! -Anna Henderson, PA-S 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
