Yeah I got the waitlist letter in the mail as well. I think I'll do the same to see the rank, they still have to do a few more interviews. There's like 35 spots for the program for post-bach students right?
Yes there are about 35 spots
They emailed me this morning, and I interviewed 12/20.
Congratulations on your acceptance! If you don't mind me asking, when did you have your interview?
I interviewed 12/18 at 8:30
Did they call you or were you sent an email?
All of my communication was via email. I heard back from them about my interview I invite a little over a month and a half from he date I applied. Let me know if you have any other questions I can help with!
Congratulations!! I interviewed at the 8:30 am session that morning as well, but sadly I haven't received any news yet.
Congratulations!! So Proud!!! I remember interviewing in your same session, but I haven't received any news yet.
Hey thanks so much!! Really hope you hear from them soon!
Although I do agree their tuition is high, it's about in the same ball park as its surrounding competitor schools (ex. Thomas Jefferson, Temple, Drexel, etc.) It's in a hot spot area, so it's without a doubt on the higher end. I do know that if you have above a 3.0 they give out $11,000 a year.. bringing that total down by roughly $30,000 for the program. I have a friend who is in the PA program at USciences and during her undergrad (at Sciences) she didn't receive any financial aid, but for graduate school they gave her $22,000 a year. I haven't filled out my own FASFA, but I'm hoping I get between $15,000-$25,000 a year in financial aid, on top of the $11,000 scholarship they gave per year. I hope this kind of helps.
I thought you couldn't receive any financial aid for grad school and up, only loans? Am I mistaken?
thats awesome congrats!!!!
were you on the waitlist?congrats!!! were you on the waitlist?
thats awesome congrats!!!!
do u know anyone else who was put on waitlist?
I'm really not too knowledgeable about it all. In my acceptance to USP it said to fill out the FASFA as soon as possible.. so I'm taking that as you do receive money for grad school. I'm also just going off what my friend said about her experience with grad and undergrad financial aid. USP is expensive, but it's just about the same as most schools I applied too. My top school was in Boston and was over $210,000 for the program, not including all the money I had to put towards housing. Unfortunately I had to turn that acceptance down and focus on schools that were closer for me and that I could commute too. I'm 100% going to USP, so I'll be doing my FASFA anyway now. I can keep you updated on what my outcome is. From word of mouth I've heard they give you a rough estimate as soon as you submit it.
I'm a current grad student at Temple, and the financial aid is completely different than in undergrad. You only get federal loans (a max amount of $22,500 I believe) and then maybe scholarships if your program offers them.
Thanks! And no sorry I wasn’t on the waitlist.
Hey sorry I just saw this. Yes! I believe I’m going to go! How about you? And were you in the 8:30 or 9:30 slot on the 18th?
Which group were you in!?! I interviewed the same day haha
I submitted the FASFA and I didn’t get a rough estimate
. The school has to process it and give you a number. All they tell you is the Stafford loan of 22500 when you submit the fasfa but the other loans are sent by the school.so you didn't get any loans from FAFSA?I submitted the FASFA and I didn’t get a rough estimate
I was in the group with the pediatric professor who kinda seemed to direct the whole thing and the sports medicine professor if that makes sense! Horrible because I don't remember their names
I’m not sure how much I will get but as of now everything on my end is submitted and I’m just waiting on the school to process it and give me a number!
Hahq that’s so funny I’m not sure what my interviewers names were either
. I might have been in the other group! Did you have two male interviewers or female?Two male interviewers!Hahq that’s so funny I’m not sure what my interviewers names were either
Were we in the same group haha
Omg I just realized that I actually interviewed 12/20. I had another interview at a different program on 12/18 so I got my dates confused lol. But we probably had the same interviewers!
Hey! Are you going to accept your spot? I think we interview the same day and the same time just different groups!
Hey! Yes I'm definitely accepting my spot! I interviewed 12/18 at 9:30am! with Two females and a Male professor!
My whole group was mostly all girls, minus one guy. The guy wore a full suit with a button down and tie. The girls varied... but I would wear a dress suit either skirt or pants. and then flats or a real small heel. Wear a nice blazer!
how was your interview? and who interviewed you?
I interviewed on 1/3/19 and everyone was dressed business casual, girls mostly wore pant suits with flats/heels/blouses. There was one guy and he wore a suit. They told us we would hear back within a week, and they were very prompt! I got accepted a week after the interview. Hope this helps, good luck!
My girlfriend did and she interviewed on 1/3! Have you heard back from them?
