Unfortunately you have to agree not to share the essay questions before writing them. On a side note, I have some good news, Penn State received its full continued accreditation as of yesterday!!! It hasn't been updated on the ARC-PA website yet but I have been given permission to share this news with everyone. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think even with the delay in CASPA and supplementals, chances are some invites must have gone out by now… but who knows! There’s no indication on here yet anyway has anyone reached out to the office by chance? All I’ve gotten back is a confirmation that they received my secondary application but I did email them on Nov 2 about an update to my app and they haven’t responded to that yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeganBee Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 I’m not sure if this was asked, but did anyone get anything about interviews occurring through SparkHire ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocio Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 I was looking for jobs in my area, and found this… si maybe this is why its taken so long for them to get back at anyone…… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kdl5526 Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 I just wanted to share that I received the call yesterday that I was accepted! It was about two weeks after my one on one interview. I already put a deposit down on another school but will be forfeiting that to accept Penn State! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

757PTAtoPA Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 I emailed the program about two weeks ago and got an auto-reply stating that they were going to be closed until 1/3/2022. I don't know if their faculty is still going to be reviewing/sending invites during that time, but I would assume they are not. Hopefully they can get word out to us all soon! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that they were fair and mainly traditional in format. You have one recording for each question, no restarts. I will admit that the one way interview was intimidating in my opinion. I remember the first question I thought I completely bombed and definitely didn’t give the best answer but ended up receiving the faculty interview a few days later. Good luck!!

I for sure bombed this interview and will be shocked if I’m given a faculty interview (especially give the very low application to acceptance ratio from last cycle). The one-way interview format totally threw me for a loop, knocked me off my game big time. If my expectations were low before they are all but nil now. I definitely learned from it so I’m focusing on applying this hiccup to the next interview that comes along. Best of luck to you and thanks again for your help!

Well, it must not have been as bad as I thought because I just completed the one-on-one interview yesterday. It was awesome and the interviewer and I had a great moment while answering one of the questions; something I would bet has never happened before in an interview. I really REALLY hope I get the acceptance call but regardless I will have a wonderful memory to share forever. This opportunity is such a great example of never giving up, even when the chips are down. Happy Saturday, everyone! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
