Splinter Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 Just to confirm, only accepted applicants have South U Tampa's phone number to call, right? I'm scheduled for a interview but all my correspondence with them has been thru email. There isn't a direct PA program phone number linked on the website or email from what I've seen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
txpas Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 Congrats to all those who have been accepted!!! Do y’all think there are seats left still?

Oh I just didn’t hear an answer til September… waited 6 weeks so don’t worry y’all they will call eventually! I believe the faculty said they usually stop interviewing at the beginning of October so they should start pulling from the waitlist then!

JBuck Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 Info about the interview and background check: I interviewed yesterday. There were many people who had not started the background check before attending the interview. We were told by staff that this was totally fine. After all, interviewees need to be sure they feel South is the right fit for them before investing time and money in the background check. They do require it, though, before they'll offer an acceptance (as they are others have said). Also, there was a flyer in my emails about the interview that said to wear business casual, so I did. I didn't wear a coat or tie. Pretty much all the other applicants were dressed in business professional attire. The interviewers were also in business professional attire for the most part, too. At the end of the day, I mentioned the 'business casual' info I saw and was told not to worry about it. Maybe they'll consider that I pay attention to details. Who knows. As for the interviews, prepare just as you would for any interview. Know your strengths and weaknesses, think about key experiences, know why PA, why South, how you address problems/conflicts that you've experienced or that are hypothetical. Also, I advise chatting it up with the other applicants. It will help put you at ease. When you're waiting around with them, don't sit in silence. Hope this helps! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
