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?

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!Did they call you or were you sent an email?
Hello Guys!
I just received an email for an interview today, has anyone that already interviewed looked into the tuition price for the school at their interview day? On the website the tuition for 3 years is approximately 163,000 which is extremely high compared to other PT schools. Do they offer grants/scholarships for students to compensate for the high tuition rate?

Hey thanks so much!! Really hope you hear from them soon!Congratulations!! So Proud!!! I remember interviewing in your same session, but I haven't received any news yet.
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.Hello Guys!

I thought you couldn't receive any financial aid for grad school and up, only loans?

thats awesome congrats!!!! 🙂 were you on the waitlist?Just got accepted! If I don’t get into a closer school then I’ll def be attending.
congrats!!! were you on the waitlist?I was just accepted! I have one more interview in Georgia but I am 98% positive i will be attending Usciences
thats awesome congrats!!!! 🙂 were you on the waitlist?
Thank you! No I wasn’t
do u know anyone else who was put on waitlist?Thank you! No I wasn’t
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 thought you couldn't receive any financial aid for grad school and up, only loans? Am I mistaken?

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.I thought you couldn't receive any financial aid for grad school and up, only loans? Am I mistaken?

Thanks! And no sorry I wasn’t on the waitlist.congrats!!! were you 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?Do you think you're going to accept your spot and definitely go??
Which group were you in!?! I interviewed the same day hahaI interviewed 12/18 at 8:30
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.I'm really not too knowledgeable about it all.

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 namesWhich group were you in!?! I interviewed the same day haha
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!so you didn't get any loans from FAFSA?
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?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!

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!Were we in the same group haha
Hey! Are you going to accept your spot? I think we interview the same day and the same time just different groups!I wouldn't assume much yet. I heard back the next day, basically 24 hours after my interview, but I've seen multiple people say they didn't hear back for a week or so after their interview. Keep positive!!
Hey! Yes I'm definitely accepting my spot! I interviewed 12/18 at 9:30am! with Two females and a Male professor!Hey! Are you going to accept your spot? I think we interview the same day and the same time just different groups!
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!Hey y'all! I'm interviewing next Thursday, and I was wondering what y'all wore? I'm assuming its business professional, but the email didn't say anything about dress code so I was curious!
how was your interview? and who interviewed you?Hey y'all! I'm interviewing next Thursday, and I was wondering what y'all wore? I'm assuming its business professional, but the email didn't say anything about dress code so I was curious!

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!Hey y'all!
