Lilly0808 Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 Honestly would not recommend this school to anyone. I graduated from there last year. Clinical year they don’t let you know where you’re going until literally the day before you’re supposed to go there, even if it’s 6 hours away from where you live. They don’t help you find housing. And the staff gets pissed if you ask them questions about your rotations. You’re better off somewhere else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This seems like a popular opinion so I'm probably going to approach this interview very chill and ask them direct questions about how they've addressed this. I've been accepted into two other programs so far and I would probably rather go to those, but I am disappointed since I did want to keep an open mind and explore other schools like Lock Haven. If this is still a problem, it's a bit annoying that they would be misleading new students into thinking that the program has secured clinical sites Edited September 22, 2022 by Hanp56 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was a deal breaker for me, I go to a prestigious school for undergraduate and lock haven undergrads get the better seats first. This is not true. There are 36 seats at main campus while most of the 3+2 cohorts are 10-15 people, even lower if you consider how many 3+2 students drop from the 3+2 program during the undergrad years or those who do not meet the gpa requirements. The 3+2 students do have reserved seats at the main campus, however, they are permitted to request a different campus and many of them do if the other locations are closer to their hometown or living situations. More than likely, if you're accepted here, you will eventually get into your desired campus. I was pretty far down on the waiting list for main campus when I accepted my offer and by the next week, I was offered a spot at main.

I saw there was posted a bunch of concerns about clinical rotations. I was wondering if you have an insight of this and if this is true.

paschoolisstressful Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 I was accepted and was super excited but the comments about clinicals have got me worried. They say that it was due to covid and they are improving, but that doesn't seem to be fully true. I'm trying to weigh my options. Has anyone asked about why some students drop every year? From their website it looks like 4-6 people every year usually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thtennis Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 Hi everyone! I interviewed on 10/31 and received a waitlist the very next day, but haven't heard back from them yet. They said they're going to review the applications and send out decisions again later. I was just wondering if anyone is in the same boat as me. Good luck to everyone this cycle!

Finn9009 Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 Hi all! I was recently accepted to the program from the waitlist and I was wondering if there was any kind of group for accepted students for the next class. Good luck to all! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually reached out to them personally to ask about my status and they gave me my ranking on the waitlist. You can probably reach out to them and they'll do the same for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melski Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 (edited) Has anyone been accepted from the waitlist? I've been on hold since October, and I'm a bit nervous about not hearing back until April/May until classes start. Best of luck you all!

Don't be nervous, I think it took a solid month for them to send mine! If you got the offer and chose a campus I would wait another week and then message admissions. They told me they were having issues transferring CASPA information in order to send the letters. Just make sure you are checking your spam too!

Lucas123455 Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 Hey everyone, I was just taken off the waitlist yesterday, but unfortunately was placed in my last campus option in clearfield, and am currently on the waitlist for the other two. Does anyone have any clue what the movement is like in the waitlist at this point, and should I just start looking for housing now, or should I give it a few weeks first?

Hey, I would wait a little bit longer if I was you. I was accepted off the waitlist to clearfield first and then a few weeks ago I was accepted to one of the other campuses. There seems to be a good amount of movement on the waitlists. You can also email them and ask them your place on each campus waitlist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
