I can’t believe it, it was soooo quick. What do we know about their interview style? Is it MMI or traditional? Do they have any information on what to expect on interview day in the website? I can’t seem to find it. My interview is virtual. Congrats!!! Did you send your GRE scores?? What were your stats if you don’t mind me asking? To everyone, has anyone received interviews without sending GRE scores??? And is it too late to apply? Thank you in advance!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's $1000 total, but they split it up into two payments. I think the timeline depends on when you were accepted, but for me, half was due a month after I got the call. The next half is due in October (for me). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
68WEMTto65DPAC Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 (edited) Posting this for future reference as people wait to interview or look back in upcoming cycles. This was my 3rd interview with a PA program and hands down the best experience. Everything they do communicates that they are interviewing you as much as you are interviewing them, it's a two-way professional conversation. It really felt like they have a great culture fostered and they want to figure out what your strengths are so they can further develop them as you prepare to go into medical practice. They give you plenty of time to fully express yourself and show your personality, interests, and unique qualities. Hopefully I get the call, but for those who will be interviewing soon, I hope you have a similar experience.

Madii Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 (edited) I just saw the FAQ file. I have two in-progress prerequisites to take in the fall. It says, "Applicants with more than four (4) outstanding prerequisites in the spring, three (3) outstanding prerequisites in the summer, and two (2) outstanding prerequisites in the fall cannot be considered for admission." What does this mean? Those with more than 2 outstanding prerequisites or just 2 outstanding prerequisites in the fall are also not considered for admission?

That means that as long as you complete at least 1 of your 2 outstanding prerequisites by the summer you are eligible to apply as of right now and be considered for admission. After the summer you should have none or 1 outstanding prerequisite. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After the summer you should have none or 1 outstanding prerequisite. I find it hard to take science course during the summer as one class isn’t offered during summer. Let’s see what the program says as I emailed them. I have microbiology, but it’s 3 credits and on caspa it says 4 credits. In case, they accept 3 credits then I would’ve to take one course only. I wish they accepted online labs, so I could’ve taken online fast. I already submitted the caspa application. Hope I hear a good news from them. Don’t want my application fee to go to waste Edited February 14 by Madii Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
