SBUpastudent Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 I am currently a PA student in stony brook and I regret accepting their offer so much. This program is so dehumanizing. Save your mental health and avoid here. They try to spy any group you make with your classmates. You are not allowed to ask for anything. They are not able to provide basic needs of students. Professors come to class unprepared. Their slides are not uploaded completely and they don't care about you learning. They just want to finish their slides and leave. Professors start making phone calls when they are proctoring for exams. There is always technical difficulties when classes are streaming from a different campus (which happen everyday because they divide the lectures between both campuses). They tell you to have strong computer but they don't provide strong internet connection. Overall they cannot provide basic needs and it gets so annoying to deal with every single day. Also, there is a sick culture in the program that is transferred from previous year students to new ones each year. The sick culture say "do not argue with professors even if they are wrong, it will be used against you". By saying that classmates are so scared to ask for their basic needs like professional exam environment or complete upload of slides. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SBUpastudent Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 I was reached by some of the Pre-PA students to explain more about the current situation in the PA program in SBU. It's very painful for me to give bad comments about my school, especially after joining this program with my memory of a sense of pride in the SBU. After participating in this year's interview process and not being able to talk about what is happening here in the last couple of years, it gave me a sense of guilt. I hope the faculties focus on and spend more time on their academic duties similar to what they do in their medical practices and respect students. I wish success to all of you as Pre-PAs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pb9827 Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 I interviewed 8/19 and haven't heard anything back. any chance i would still get accepted or am i pretty much guaranteed a waitlist or rejection situation? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way they broke it down to us during the interview: they only accept a handful of students after the interview. I noticed after the handful of students accept from that particular interview date, if by chance any give up their seat or decline, then they accept another student from that interview date for that seat. This usually happens right before the next interview date. If you haven’t heard anything, do not panic. Final decisions will go out after all interviews conclude. No news is good news right now. It’s still early. Keep hope alive and live your life in the meantime! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaryPAs Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 I’ve been waitlisted, I interviewed 8/19 as well. I don’t know if they will have more interviews or if at this point I should just give up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe that at my orientation session last week, they said they are hosting one more interview session in November, and that all applicants who haven’t heard back by then can expect an “official” communication in December 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those who haven’t heard anything are on “hold.” An acceptance can come any day now. Stay positive! The right door will open at the right time. You got to believe! Remember you did your part: you prepared, submitted an application, and secured an interview. Now it’s up to the school to decide if you are a good fit for their program. Remember No is also a blessing. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People who have not heard yet are on hold pending a decision. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikjf2021 Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 Hi, did anyone get acceptance call from the 10/14 interview date yet? Super nervous and hoping and praying I did enough to get a call but I haven’t heard anything yet. I know they said it would be around 10 days after the interview but just wondering how long it took others to get that acceptance call?

By that time, If no phone call or email received, then that means alternative (wait) list. Good luck everyone. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this something to take seriously or is this a disgruntled student? People reached out to the student privately. Feel free to do the same. Also, think it best not to address it publicly because we do not want to discount anyone’s experience nor flood this forum with negativity towards anyone, a current or prospective student. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that they felt it appropriate to post on an incoming student forum screams of lack of judgement on their part. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And as someone choosing among schools, I want to get all perspectives, not just the unicorns and butterflies the schools show us. I can decide for myself how to interpret what the student said, or reach out to them for more detail. However, I'm sure it's hard to hear for people who just got into the program and are excited by it, or for whom it's their only choice.
