Does anyone else have interviews at these places? Or if you've had them, can you give any insight on the interview and the program itself?
Thanks in advance!
Thanks in advance!

I had an interview at Drexel (very laid back, literally nothing to worry about) but I haven't heard anything from them. I am losing hope. I felt my interview didn't go particularly well because I didn't connect with the person interviewing me. I think this was just bad luck for me. I would say in most cases there is nothing to worry about, it is so laid back and the interview is just like a conversation.

When did you hear back from Drexel after submitting your application? I received the autoresponse that they are reviewing, but haven't heard back yet. This was about one month ago.
My app was verified sep 23 and I got the interview invite October 1st.

Thanks for the confirmation. Do you happen to know how long interviews go for?
Interviews are 45 minutes long, one on one. As far as how many rounds of intherviews, I have no clue. I think there is a November round but Drexel emailed saying that all applicants will know of their standing (acceptance or not) by late December early January.

Thanks! Hoping I make a round of interviews for Drexel, but it seems unlikely at this point.
Congrats to everyone else who's hearing back from them.
I have an interview there on Dec. 4th, but they have like 10 interview days and that's the first so don't give up hope!
I don't really have a top choice but I can say I was really impressed with everything about Drexel's program. I couldn't think of a negative if I tried. For me if I get accepted, it will come down to finances and if I decide to live in a city.

Congrats! When did you submit your application?
The questions were very straightforward...why PT, why Drexel, etc. Nothing really took me off guard too much. It was very conversational, we talked about my sibling, my major, and just other random topics!
My app was verified by PTCAS the first week in October and I heard from Elon two weeks later!

Overall GPA: 3.97
Pre-Req GPA: 4.0
GRE: V-146 Q-150 AW-4.5 (not that great, bad at standardized tests)
Volunteer: 150 hours total in two different outpatient settings
As far as extracurricular, I do some things on campus but not an overachiever just so that i have stuff for my resume. i'm a part of a few good orgs that i enjoy like choir, and some community service events. nothing really PT related altho i was a student trainer for a short time.

I just got my acceptance letter! I didn't receive an email, but I checked the mail and a letter had been in there for a week! Are you going for sure?

congrats!!! no email?? Maybe you should check your spam. I got an email but the letter hasn't come yet. I'm stuck between temple and drexel and i know that's usually the situation for most students lol. But drexel gave a scholarship so it's kinda hard to refuse. I'm still waiting for other schools but Temple, Drexel, and Slippery Rock are my first choices and since Drexel is right here at home, there's a big chance that I might end up going.. How about you? First choice?
I interviewed Oct. 30 but haven't received an email. I haven't checked my mail box in 2 weeks so I'm hoping to find something in there after I get off work like ajc4cz did haha.
It's definitely one of my top. The scholarship makes it pretty tempting!
