LSpivey Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Has anyone else heard anything from this school? I completed all my prereqs, I'm just waiting to take the GRE on the 28th.

mgriffiths Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 I just received an email from UTHSC stating that over half of the 30 seats are filled. They will be looking over the 60 interviewees from the month of August. If there are any more seats after looking over those 60 they will conduct more interviews. So, sounds to me like they plan to be full after looking over this 60... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gms Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 I emailed admissions today asking if they had filled the class and if they had any additional interview dates, here is the response I received " At the present time, there are not any additional interview dates scheduled. Should that change, applicants will be notified if they are chosen for an interview". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ttrumble Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 I just accepted my seat for the new class! :) Does anyone know the Facebook group link for the class of 2017? Chandra said she didn't know it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marsle85 Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 I'm a bit frustrated that I have not received any correspondence from this program (via email or phone). I completely understand how busy they must be, but over the course of three months, three emails and three phone calls, I haven't heard a thing. My application was sent 7/30, so I also understand I applied late. I suppose a new program is bound to experience a learning curve. Either way, good luck to all applicants who have been accepted! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jrunner Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 Hello! I was accepted for class of 2017 and just wanting to connect with some current students and others who will be in my class. Since the program is brand new, I'm wondering how the first year was and if there are any major disadvantages to attending a new program vs an established one. Very excited to be accepted!! Also, does anyone need a roommate? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMann Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 jrunner, Contact Chandra for info concerning a Facebook page for you class. There was one set up by one of your future classmates not long ago. As for current students, there are several of us on these forums so don't be shy about asking us questions either here or PM. You may also be able to find a roommate via the Facebook page. Josh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bio Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 I just registered for classes! I'm unable to find the facebook that has been setup for the future students. If anyone has any information on this please message me. I'm looking for a roommate(s). Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mgriffiths Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 I received an email from Chandra Johnson about the possibility of interviewing this Friday for the cohort that starts January 2015! She also inquired about whether I had taken genetics, because that was the only course missing from my prerequisites (I will complete this course next week). So my first question is why they would still be doing interviews a month before the next cohort is to start? Secondly, I have rechecked the website and genetics is not listed as a prerequisite, but only a recommended biology course. Did they change the prerequisites and forget to update their website? Based on the quality of applicants did they increase what they felt was necessary? I have been accepted to two other programs, but would definitely attend an interview if offered one. This was my first choice school at one time, but it fell by the wayside back in August/September when I didn't get an interview. It would be nice to start in January instead of next fall, that being one of many reasons to attend UT Memphis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He also said he would let me know by Wednesday whether or not I did or did not get an interview but that was almost two weeks ago.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, one think that has definitely been frustrating about this school is the fact that it is almost impossible to talk with anyone or get a response to any questions. I was offered an interview for this coming Friday and I plan to go, but I have many questions that would need answering for me to change my plans completely.

alsparks Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Hi, I am wanting to apply for PA school here and I was wondering if there was something you have to fill out for the direct patient care/shadowing hours? I know there's a certain amount to have, and I was not sure if there is a form that a physician would sign to prove you did the hours? Or do they just go from your word? Just wanted to go ahead and check to let the doctors know. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoNoHarm14 Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 Does this school not send out letters to those who are not going to be interviewed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aaron.harris Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 alssparks: I am in my second year at UTHSC and do not recall having to fill out forms for my healthcare hours. They generally just looked at what was entered into CASPA. DoNoHarm14: I don't believe they send out those letters, but am unsure. I believe they would send you a letter if you interviewed but did not get in. Aaron Harris UTHSC-PAS Class of 2015 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IwanttobeaPA Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 I am looking to apply to UTHSC this upcoming cycle. For current students, is there anything you would recommend that helped you get in? This is my top school and really would be so excited to get the opportunity to attend PA school at UT! Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
