Are there any resources you recommend using to prepare?

Depending on how much time you have until your interview...there are a few good books I read that helped a lot. I’ll post the links to them below. These both had a ton of questions and how to answer them. Good luck!!

Concordia University: Ann Harbor Acceptance letter recanted: anyone else get an acceptance to Concordia yet? I received an acceptance letter on Monday September 14th  and then it was recanted on Tuesday September 15th!!!!  saying that the secretary made a mistake and sent out erroneous acceptance letters!!!! this makes me soooooo sad as this was my dream school and I'm trying to see if anyone had a similar experience or can shed some light on what happened...I feel so terrible that I was told that I was accepted to PA school only to be told that I wasn't the very next day after celebrating with my family! please help 😞

My heart just broke for you!!! I can not even imagine that feeling, I am so so sorry!!!! I know it is easier said than done but try not to stress to much about it and just remember that you will be a BOMB PA someday! If it makes you feel any better I received an interview invite to another school and then the next day it got rescinded due to an error as well! Mistakes happen, try to keep your head up YOU GOT THIS! ❤️

I’m so sorry to hear this. I hate that you had to go through that rollercoaster of emotions. 😔 As hard as it is, keep your head up! You will be a great PA no matter what school you get accepted to!

I'm so sorry to hear about this happening to you. I can't imagine how you must feel. Do keep your head up though! I know you'll get in somewhere and this experience will only deepen your passion to be a PA and ultimately make you a better PA! 🙂

I applied close to the end of July and haven't heard anything yet 😞 I am wondering if I should reach out? Congrats to those who got accepted! 

I would try to reach out. Sooner the better since they’re still doing interviews. But I applied September 1st and interviewed yesterday, so they’ve got to have some sort of feedback or reasoning. Best of luck!!!

Hi CAPPAC! Did they mention when you should hear something about decisions in your interview yesterday?

I believe they said within the next week or two. Sounds like they interview like 10-20 people each week then choose like 5-6 people out of those each round. The rest get waitlisted.
