kpPA1603 Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 Quick Question: I received an interview yesterday but I am concerned because I was not able to complete it Biochemistry during the Summer of 2020 like I planned because it was canceled due to COVID-19, thus I currently do not have that Prerequisite complete. Is there a select date upon which the program requires all prerequisites to be completed? In addition, when would this cycle for the program open.

Most programs require prerequisites to be complete by the time of matriculation, so you’d have until the upcoming fall to complete it. I recommend portage online, most of my prerequisites were completed through them and considering I landed an interview, I doubt there would be any issue with you taking it through them. It’s self paced so you can finish as quickly as you’d like. This current cycle 2020-2021 opened in April 2020, the upcoming 2021-2022 cycle will open April 2021.

I am current a senior at an Undergraduate university and I graduate in May. Will this affect me if they begin in April. I emailed Spain about the Biochemistry and she stated "If you are selected for the program you will until the end of summer 2021 to complete the biochemistry course." I just want to get all the dates straight, because if I am selected for the program I will take the Biochemistry but if not there is no other incentive for me to take it.

Sorry, I think I misunderstood you when you asked about the cycle opening, did you mean when class starts for CUNY York? I believe they start in the fall so August/September of 2021. If they want you to have all prerequisites completed by the end of summer 2021 then I would assume you have until about the end of July which would be a nice timeframe to take biochemistry if you graduate in May!

You need to complete Biochemistry before August start date. Classes start end of August so if you have it completed before them you will be fine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The format is pretty traditional. There are 2 staff members and they trade off asking questions, which were pretty standard! You log into the zoom meeting and get started right away after brief introductions, do the Q&A, then you have the opportunity to ask some questions as well. When you’re all done you log off! My interview took about 25 minutes, so it goes by really fast. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of my interviewers was a graduate from their PA program, so she was very knowledgeable and able to answer any questions I had at the end. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s really chill, be prepared to answer some fairly basic/fundamental questions about yourself, your decision to go for PA, and your knowledge on the PA profession/what you’ve done to prepare for the program. My interviewers were so kind and really made it out to feel like a conversation, they genuinely want to get to know you so don’t be afraid to relax and be yourself. Good luck! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
