When did you guys hear back from Wingate admissions last year? Marlowk, I'm assuming your app was for the 2014 year like me 🙂 Have you heard anything from them?
 
Do you guys know if Wingate does interviews? I also applied for the program starting next January
 
I believe that's the admission requirements for last year (JAN 2014 class) the current one (JAN 2015 Class) is http://dpt.wingate.edu/cms-assets/documents/143274-863390.acr-2015.pdf

It doesn't say anything there about interviews so maybe they aren't requiring one this year.

Okay great.... I was wondering because I have a really thorough spreadsheet of all of the schools I applied to and I had No interview written down. I must have seen your link first, but when I searched recently I just found the older version. Thanks!
 
Has anyone heard anything for the 2015 class?
 
Question..to those of you who applied to Wingate University, did you guys fill out the "WU DPT Verification of Physical Therapist Observation form"? It lists that as one of the requirements in the pdf someone posted above. I can't seem to find that form anywhere online so I wasn't sure if we need it..?
 
Has anyone heard anything for the 2015 class?
Nope! I did read somewhere (maybe the admissions section on their website?) that no one is notified until they have selected the entire cohort (42 people), so I'm thinking we will probably not hear anything for awhile. I may be wrong though!
 
Oh okay! Thanks!! Good luck to everyone 🙂
 
if anyone is still checking this, I was accepted into the 2015 class in January... I didn't have to do an interview or anything. I'm really considering going there. Just afraid of whether it'll be a good program or not.
 
if you don't mind me asking what were your stats for anyone who has been accepted?
 
I just applied today for Jan 2015...I hope its not too late!! I completely overlooked the school initially and am so thankful that the deadline hasn't passed
 
I applied on 12/6/13, still haven't heard anything yet. I hope I'm on some kind of wait list Wingate is my only hope!
 
I emailed admissions a week and a half ago and haven't heard a response yet
 
I was notified last week Friday that I was accepted! They called me and I got a letter in the mail this week.

Oh man, I don't think I have a chance haha. My GPA and GRE are my weakest parts of my apps. I have like 3000 hours as an aide and good letters of rec so maybe those will help! Congrats!
 
SympatheticTrunk, do you mind saying when you applied?
