afarmboy Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Do you know if they would be sending out letters? I don't know, and I'll be one of the last to know if they're mailed as my mail is being forwarded. Hopefully someone will post as soon as there is any news.

bgdog Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 Eek! I didn't hear anything.How do you know? It takes awhile for them to call everybody. Typically if you get in, they call you, if not then you get a letter. I know because I graduate from the program in 7 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiveLoveLaugh Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 Hi bgdog, First of all, congratulations on your upcoming graduation and thank you for all your contributions to the forum as a student. Look forward to more once you are practicing. Called the program today and they said that no calls have been made yesterday or today. Can you please clarify what you meant by calls going out. -Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bgdog Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 hmmm that's interesting. I know of at least one, don't know why they told you that or if any more calls went out. Typically the forum explodes when the calls go out and I haven't seen that so...I don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blessings!! Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 You mind if I ask you about the interview details. I am wondering about group interview, was it hard? Did they ask you to write essay? is it current events related or medical related? Thanks.............I'll be applying in July 2013. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soraya1217 Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 I just got my acceptance call today:) I am in the middle of choosing between two schools now, I got accepted to Samuel Meritts PA program and its a masters program. But I know Stanford has a good reputation, but my only concern is that its an associates program. Bgdog can u tell me what the program is like? pros and cons? I know in 2020 all Associate PA programs will be required to change into a masters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

popopo Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 I'm in too!!! Got the call from Fred today! Anyone from Orange/Los angeles county get accepted? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdpbme Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 The Stanford program also offers a masters degree through st Francis university... During your rotations you may choose to take 4 additional classes online through st Francis and u will earn the masters degree that way. I was accepted at Sam Merritt and western university and I chose Stanford (I got my acceptance call today!!).

I don't know where SMU students rotate through. (i work on pill hill by the way but went to Stanford) if its the end degree you are looking for, Stanford is partnered with St. Francis University and for 5 extra classes during clinical year, you get a MMS at graduation. Very doable Half my class got it. Also Stanford costs less and EVERYBODY has heard of Stanford. It definitely helped with my job interviews. I got hired at every interview I went to.

Sent from my myTouch_4G_Slide using Tapatalk Hi Joelseff, Do you know anything about Stanford vs. Davis' PA program? Davis is significantly cheaper and it is a master's program now. But Stanford works a lot with Santa Cruz county which is where I'll be looking to work. Any advice regarding the two schools and your knowledge of either program placing for rotations in Santa Cruz county? It's hard get definite answers from the programs so it'd be nice to get the opinion of someone already working in the field. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cdpbme Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 I am not very familiar with the area or surrounding cities but I would definitely like to find a roommate or two. I suppose the orientation will be a good way to find compatible roomies. Im planning on staying in san jose...i would like to get a studio or share an apt with someone.
