hubeauty Posted August 14, 2012 Author Share Posted August 14, 2012 Congrats lioness21 and good luck on your interview!!! I was wondering if they had started reviewing applications and offering interviews. I sent my CASPA application in around July 20th and I got the email saying they received it. Hopefully I get a call a in a couple of weeks!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lioness21 Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 Thanks hubeauty and good luck to you too :) As far as I know, I don't think they've started inviting anyone for their second round of interviews, so hopefully you'll hear back soon for the next round!

Seems like a full day- how was the writing sample? did you type or pen-and-paper? Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaK13 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 I hope everyone did well on their interviews yesterday! I was just wondering if anyone has received a letter of rejection from Drexel? I have not heard anything yet and I hope I am still being considered for an interview. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xcman1539 Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Hey everyone so I interviewed last friday and must say that Drexel is my number one choice! we should be hearing from them in two weeks with a phone call if accepted for early decision. I hope I get it! This year will mark what looks to be the highest number of applications for drexel! the deadline is still a month away and they have already reach 1,800 applicants. crazyyy lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suspirox Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Drexel is my top choice. I am praying every night I receive a phone call and I hope I don't have to wait until March. A little more about the interview: 1. You receive and orientation and welcome from the admission coordinator/secretary. ---You are given about 20 mins to answer two questions- Very general topics for example/ What do you hope to accomplish as a PA student & Most rewarding experience ( something along these lines) 2. You'll have an overview on tuition loans and Q& A with someone from Drexel's financial aid department- which I found very informative. 3. You'll have a review of the course curriculum and what the two yrs at Drexel will be like from a current faculty member- again very informative. 4 Tour 5. Lunch w/ Dr.Auth- And I was nervous about eating while having a convo with the director BUT it was very casual & informal. We sat in the same room we had the orientation were given about 15 mins to eat alone, then he came in and introduced himself gave some funny stories and answered some questions then left so we could finish eating. Very relaxed and very welcoming. 6. Finally interview process- Meet with one current pa student and then another interview with two faculty members. * While we were waiting for our name to be called for interview we meet with 3 current PA students who stayed with use answering questions, giving advice ect for the remaining of the day. Overall the whole environment at Drexel screams professionalism and they really do an excellent job of making you feel relaxed and at home. Heads up to the ladies interviewing- when on the tour the floors where shined and I kept feeling like I was going to slip on my heels- Make sure to buy those grip pads you can stick on the bottom of your shoes. Hope this was helpful : ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koppma Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 I just got the phone call. I got accepted!!! See you next year. I interviewed on August 24th. I wish you guys luck. Drexel's interview process was very professional. What I heard is that the next set of interviews will be held in Oct. My advice to you is to be your self and you'll do fine.

Koppma Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 The Aug 6 interview was at UMDNJ and I was rejected from there, but accepted into Drexel's PA program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suspirox Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 That's great, if you don't mind me asking what area code was the number from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koppma Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 I don't know because I didn't have caller id. But Janet said she used her personal number and the area code didn't match the 215 area code because i told her the story of other students getting her phone call and they saw 215. I got the call at 1900 pacific time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suspirox Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 So last night I had nightmares I didn't get accepted. Do you guys think its too early to call and ask for an update or send a letter of intent? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
