centosan Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 @lxl026, I submitted my CASPA around the same time you did, but I never heard anything from them. Not even "your application has been received". Perhaps I should call them and ask the status of my application. But congrats to you and the others who've received interview invites already!

centosan Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 So I called Brent, and he told me he recieved it. Told me it was still under review. That's the important part I guess! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAgirl22 Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 So I called Brent, and he told me he recieved it. Told me it was still under review. That's the important part I guess! I also submitted my application in mid-august and have not heard anything. I am going to try and call tomorrow also and see what's going on!

lxl026 Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Hi Wilco, Thanks for offering to answer questions about the interview process. I'm interviewing in mid Oct and wanted to know what I can expect...were the questions difficult? Did any surprise you? How soon after the interview did you hear about your acceptance? I admit, I'm so nervous about the interview. I called Brent and he told me that about 54% of those interviewed get accepted...not bad odds I guess. Thanks, I'd appreciate any feedback about the interview. PS. Do you like the program? If you could, can you explain your pros/cons, impressions about pace's pa program?

spatel0122 Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 hey guys, i submitted my caspa in mid-August and got an email for an interview today. Good luck everyone:) Do you mind sharing your stats? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mconran22 Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 I am a member of the AAPA. I do not think that it is a requirement for anything, just a "positive". To be honest, I had forgotten to put that on my applications. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
constantvm Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 I am with you JaK13 :( But I have 3 other interviews at other schools at this point, so keep your head up! Pace is just extremely competitive, more so most PAs school from my research. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
centosan Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 I still haven't received any word at all from them. Starting to get worried, seeing as they started to give invites already... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
annemarreb Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 I didn't even get any notice if they received my application but instead I got a rejection letter right away. Good luck everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mmgh88 Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 @sidtandon Do they always call for the interview invites? I got a confirmation that they received my application back in August 16th and I haven't heard anything since then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sschoett Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 I applied early Aug and haven't heard anything back from Pace regarding confirmation etc. I wonder if I'm in the same pool above with a pending rejection:( for those of you who did hear that your Caspa was received, did it take a month?

amj29 Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Hey guys, I am a current student at Pace. Heres what I can say about the program and why I chose it. I think your clinical experience is probably more important then the classroom. At the end of the day you will learn the same material; the question is will you be able to apply it? You will not get a more diverse experience then learning medicine in NYC. Secondly, the program is pretty laid back. There is ZERO competition. Once you are accepted you are in. Everyone has different backgrounds so the EMT can help the lab tech do a blood pressure and the lab tech can help the EMT with microbiology. When I went on my interviews, so many students were completely stressed out and there was more of a cut throat environment elsewhere. No matter where you go the grade requirement has gone up. The demand on the profession grows faster then the number of seats. If you got an interview, your grades are good enough otherwise they wouldn't waste the time. They just want to get to know you. Good Luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

centosan Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Wow, it seems like interview invites were given out on the 24th... I'm getting worried again. I never received an email from them about anything. Not even application received sort of emails. Well hope things work out for the best, I'll be on the look out for them snail mails.
