Hey guys! Director said she's sending out acceptance letters for you guys some time this within this next upcoming week, but you know how that goes LOL. Last year we got acceptance letters on May 24th. 🩷

Thanks for the insight! I was thinking it would likely be Friday next week at the earliest but really hoping it would be sooner.  Did you hear anything about them increasing the cohort size?

Increasing the cohort size? She mentioned to all the groups at the interview she was working on trying to get 55 in this upcoming cohort.

I thought she said that too. I remember her mentioning hoping to be able to do that for this cohort.

We asked her about that and she said it's 45... so that's odd LOL. Either way, I hope she does. That makes it a higher chance for you guys.

I think what it might be is she's hoping to do so but it's probably a long process? I could imagine that because of clinical placements and having to compete with students from other schools, Anesthesia Assistants and MDA's. Hopefully she can make it happen

Yeah I'm sure there's a lot that goes into it. She had told my group she was hoping to know within the next two weeks if she'd be able to admit 55, she seemed pretty optimistic about it.
