KalebPAS Posted February 8 Author Share Posted February 8 I spoke with the assistant admissions director yesterday and they told me they will be releasing their admission decisions sometime after 2/14. Im unsure if this is "officially shareable" as they could change their minds, but for those that were told they would hear by the end of January -- I hope this helps. If you have any questions in the mean time please feel free to DM me or email me at kaleb.albert@lmunet.edu 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WrestlingPA Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 Notorious, I was notified I am on the alternate list as well.

Once everyone has interviewed then they are sorted based on their final score. No preference to if you were on the waitlist or not! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is rather conversational, they do tend to ask a few "give me an example of a time when.." questions. It will be a very casual interview!

I guess I will focus on things like Why do you want to be a PA? and Tell me about yourself. in addition to having several examples / stories of things like Strengths/weaknesses A time of adversity A conflict Achievement or something that impressed me by a PA etc. Let me know if y'all can think of any other specific scenarios I should have a story for locked and loaded!

WrestlingPA Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 (edited) wanderingPA, first congratulations on your interview! I used a similar resource as what KalebPA recommended to feel mentally prepared for my conversation with the interviewing faculty. Also, don't stress yourself out. The LMU faculty and current students do a great job of making the interview process as relaxed as possible.

Per the admission committee we should hear by Friday or next week! Probably closer to the next week side because of the last interview date.
