Or could it be from an Alaska or Hawaii phone number? My call was from a local instructor but it could be from Seattle or local when receiving a call of acceptance. Or any other number, if for example, a local instructor still has a number from another area. It can be anything really. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm an Anchorage applicant, and I got the initial packet and some December deadlines. I've done everything I need for December but since then it's been silent for anything further needed. I have my class emails redirected to my personal email but occasionally go into the graduate page and still nothing. Just want to make sure I'm not missing something big! Your initial communication that you received was about getting the offer accepted and taking the steps to apply to UW also. Then there will be a lull in communication probably until about March or April. This is what I have been told by students I know that are currently in the program. Just make sure you are already working on FAFSA and any scholarship opportunities for now. Edited January 26 by tentitans70 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did all that and applied and accepted to UW, but it's been about a month of no communication and I wanted to make sure I wasn't getting some submarine sinking deadline notification on an account I don't see or something.

cmcnamara Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 (edited) 2 hours ago, ManifestingSuccess said: Just got a rejection email after the interview Hey I know this feels pretty bad... I was rejected for 4 years while improving my PCE and GPA. It's rough, but the best thing to do is look at what you were rejected for and if it is something feasibly improvable. But on top of that, look at if PA is the job for you. I don't mean that badly, at all, as I did similar thinking. Not in an "I'm not good enough for PA" sorta way, but in a "What's the best path for my own happiness" way. PA is harder than most graduate programs to get into but very very achievable. If it's truly what you want, you can absolutely achieve it. What I mean is that, I know some people who had dreams of going into medical school or PA school but when rejected, looked elsewhere and found another job that was more their fit. I know someone trying to get into PA school who got into physical therapy and absolutely loves it - great pay, pretty low stress, and an active work environment. So I just mean take this as a moment of introspection and value what you're wanting for your own happiness. Edited January 31 by cmcnamara For some reason, my format got borked. Fixed it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hurdle through the lows and get that acceptance Sorry if that came through like that. I basically meant look through what needs improving but also allow yourself to be introspective of what you want, guilt-free. I don't mean you need to, just don't feel ashamed about looking at alternative routes. However, if you still feel like this is your calling, absolutely pursue it and pursue it logistically - why were you denied and what can you do to minimize that it happens again.

I'm in the Tacoma Class #12 and excited to get started this summer. Can you recommend any places/areas that would be good to rent (for a family of 3)? We are moving out there early June, but I'll be coming over there (from Atlanta) in May to look for some places to rent (houses, townhouses, and apartments). Thanks!
