Or just a rejection from the school for "not being a good fit" or whatever else they always tell us when you get rejected lol. Quote
Coho907 Posted July 12, 2023 Author For those interested in a potential timeline: my application was submitted and verified mid May, I had an interview mid June, and was accepted early July. Hope this helps and good luck to everyone applying! 1 Quote

Per Marshall's website, they do have rolling admissions and the application deadline is October 1st. Prospective Students (marshall.edu) Quote
MandM Posted August 11, 2023 I just got waitlisted. I know it’s better than a rejection but I feel stuck now. Quote
PathToPA1109 Posted August 21, 2023 How do you guys feel with Marshall’s accreditation being put on probation. Not sure if I should even consider the school anymore. Quote

Not sure if I should even consider the school anymore. I'm not too concerned about it. Per the ARC-PA website, schools with an accreditation-probation status are still fully accredited programs. As long as a school is accredited (continued, provisional, or probation) when the student starts the program, they are eligible to take the PANCE exam and become fully practicing PAs. I believe the next review period is not until 2025, so that means that anyone starting this cycle in January will not really be affected by the decision and will be able to sit for the PANCE exam upon graduation.

Not sure if I should even consider the school anymore. It really just depends. I personally do not mind it, at the end of the day any newer program you enroll in is a risk you take. Generally PANCE results are a big indicator for how well a program prepares you but they don’t have PANCE results yet. The PA reddit community seems very against new programs or any form of probation. I like and believe in the faculty and I am willing to take a risk to be there. Edited August 21, 2023 by MandM Quote
