Members don't see this ad.

just got an acceptance letter from mcphs monday. most likely will be attending if i dont get off the wait list at other schools. has anyone else gotten into this school and planning on attending? i was just curious because I'm not really from the area and just thought it would help to at least know who else would be attending to gain some support that way. thanks!

Hey, I have an interview there on the 3/31. Was it a formal interview or more relaxed, if you don't mind me asking?

it was relatively laid back; the questions weren't grueling but it is one on one if thats what you mean by formal? don't stress too much and be yourself; the other stuff like tours and what not is with one other person though ; good luck!

Hey guys, congrats on the good news from MCPHS. Quick question for y'all:

It says online that they are not accredited by APTA, but are only candidates for accreditation.
What does this mean for students who go there? I tried to get in touch with them to no avail and will try again next week but you guys probably know.

They were on my top list of programs to look at until I realized they were not accredited.

they are like 99%there ; i asked then about it at the interview and they're basically just waiting to graduate their first class which will be this may. when i went in for the interview she said the board just had came in a few weeks before to check out the program and had only good things for them; not to say they don't have a chance to not be accredited but unless they really screw up the chances of not being accredited is slim; i loved their facilities everything is brand new and their program syllabus to me was fitting

Exercisefinatic- Do you mind me asking what kind of questions they asked you?

 

[exercisefinatic]

they went over your transcripts and such at first, and then asked the general why do you want to be a PT, why MCPHS, etc.
