It looks like we will be left in the dark 😉
I'm going to call later today or tomorrow and inquire a bit...let you know what they tell me!

So I spoke with Wendy, who is very sweet and helpful if you need any information.
The interviews will be about 20 minutes. 2 faculty will be interviewing us individually. We will get a facility tour after the interview is over. Wendy also hinted that we will hear back pretty quickly after the interviews.
Just speculation here but if they conduct 3 interviews an hour for an 8 hour day that would be 24 interviews...the size of the incoming class...there might be more than just 1 interview going on at once but who knows?! Feeling hopeful at the least 🙂
Good luck to everyone!

Okay that gives me some ease about how the interview goes! And also I was on the phone with the DPT office and it was the receptionist that I talked to and asked if they conduct any interviews other than Dec 2nd. Her reply was that they try to just do one and try to get the whole class size in one interview, so I hope that brings some comfort to you!
Definitely brings some comfort, thank you!

Did anyone happen to ask how many applicants UAMS interviewed? I asked them when we'd hear back and they said within the next two weeks. So pretty fast turn around!
I didn't ask but I saw somewhere on their website that they interviewed 65 applicants last year, if that helps!
I was nervous as well but I think they expect that. I felt okay coming out of there. I was asked a lot about the APTA and how their program is different from others. Other than that the usual: strengths, weaknesses, where do you see yourself in 8 years, how did you become interested in PT, and so on. Who did you get interviewed by? I was with John Jefferson.
I was interviewed by Dr. Jennifer Vincenzo, and I was also asked the same questions as well.
I have not! Was it an acceptance call?!
Yes, it was an acceptance call. Kayla the Administrative Specialist sent all of the paperwork to verify acceptance this morning.
Thanks! Dr. Angel Holland interviewed me. She was very sweet and I was asked the same questions that GoodskiiDPT stated in her post.

I got the waitlist email as well, did yours state what position you're in on the list?
Thank you, GoodskiiDPT! Yes, I will be attending. I love this program, it's very unique and so different than any other!
Middle third...you?
Same. I'm curious to know how many people are on the list
So Exciting! It is very unique. Was there a deposit required or a timeline to accept?
Dr. Jefferson told me everyone not accepted goes on the wait list that was interviewed But I'm not sure how many interviewed
*if we are one of 8 in the middle third then 24 people are on the wait list
Yes, to secure my spot in the program I have to send in all of the paperwork and pay a $60.00 deposit by 12/28/16.
