Well, best of luck to you! I was notified via a phone call from Mrs. Clark. I applied early decision as well. My application was sent to Wingate around August 5th, but I don't believe they began officially reviewing applications until after the early decision deadline of August 15th.
Sounds good! I applied on the 15th. I already had every requirement needed, I was just nervous on the essay portion so I waited to submit my application. I’m just really nervous and I just can’t wait, the suspense is just so annoying. I just want to know if I got in or not. Hopefully I’ll be in the program with you.
I hope so too! Good luck to you as well! Hope that we are all in the program together!
I hope ya'll are accepted as well! Best of luck to you both!!
I hope you get in as well! And I agree it was extremely stressful. I feel like I was more anxious after submitting my application then I was during the entire application process.
Just got the acceptance call from Wingate! I'm waiting to hear back from several other schools before I put down my deposit. Anyone else planning on attending Wingate?
Would you mind sharing your stats?!
Congrats on also getting accepted! If you decide to place your deposit I would be super excited to meet one of my new cohort members!
Congrats on also getting accepted! I have already toured and even sat in on a Cadaver lab back in January so if you have any questions I would be happy to answer them!
When did you apply ? My application was sent the later part of October ...
. Congrats! If you do not mind me asking what were your stats ?
About a month for me
Submitted my application toward the end of October , have not heard anything as of yet
Yes, Not a problem!
I submitted my application on October 1st and heard back from them about a month later.
Your pre-req GPA is definitely very solid and would be above average for most programs. I would suggest retaking a couple of courses to get your overall GPA up if possible. I think you definitely have a shot at getting into PT school. There are also so many other factors the admissions committee considers that go beyond your GPA (essay, experiences, hours, etc).
Hi, I received my acceptance letter for Wingate a few weeks ago. I am about to submit my deposit while I wait to hear from an in-state school. Do you mind sharing your experience during the tour and whether you plan to attend?
Congrats on the acceptance! I will be attending Wingate for their 2021 cohort. Firstly the anatomy professor was truly an intelligent and personable individual. He not only helped students who were stuck but happily engaged in the cadaver work and was extremely hands-on with the material and the bodies. Everything was very hands-on and the student's talked to me about how the course style was very effective. A bonus of Wingate versus other programs is the fact that unlike other graduate programs, we have our own cadaver's just for us. That means we do not have to share with the OT program nor PA program which is different from other schools at least here in North Carolina. It gives a more realistic experience of the dissection without having to follow the lines already created by other students. Plus, Wingate recently partnered with Novant to allow for the PT students to take part in assisted surgical procedures with cadaver labs. I have never heard of another school doing that personally. When it came to the actual tour, the best part of it for me was the fact that the professor's actually cared. They cared about the well-being of the students and when asked what their goals with working at Wingate were, they answered it was to help the student's in this program thrive. So this fact, plus the fact that their certification exam passing rate is officially 100% really sealed the deal for me!
