Thanks! I would email her again. It took me emailing her multiple times to finally get her to send me the acceptance letter.  I think she is just super busy. Don't give up, I'm praying y'all hear something soon!

This is good to know. I just emailed her a response to my threads so hopefully she could reference back to it! 

Thank you!

Hi guys! 

I've been following along this thread for a couple of weeks now, and I thought I'd finally make a post. I believe it was 3/19 that I interviewed, and I also noticed the 70% completion progress as well. So I emailed yesterday evening for the first time just to be able to find out one way or another. I'm hoping we all hear something back soon. I know they are super busy with all of the applications. Good luck to everyone who is still awaiting a determination! Hopefully we all make it 🙂

Congratulations Mattie! I just got home from work and checked my email! I was sent an email about being recommended for acceptance. I'm working on registering for everything right now. I don't have a weekday day off until next Thursday. It looks like they use Labcorp for the drug test and the closest one is an hour away and it's closed on Saturdays and Sundays. I'm hoping that they are okay with me not being able to take it until Thursday. Did any of you guys have to wait a couple of days until you were off work and able to go?

Hi,

I applied in March and did the interview. I was SO nervous and not sure how it went. I hope I did not ramble. I have not heard back and at this point I just want to hear anything. It just says In department review and 70%. I emailed and she said my application will be looked at soon. I just want to hear something, anything, hopefully something good. My GPA is a 4.0 and I am hoping I have a strong application with my previous degrees, etc. I have talked to a few NPs and MDs who are willing to precept, and want to know the required hours, etc. The anxiety of waiting plus I have to take a medical mission trip abroad soon for a few weeks and want to do the background check, etc before I travel so I don't miss it. I really like UA.

I woke up this morning to see my acceptance offer! I am so excited!! Thank God!
Background check is through castlebranch.

Can someone start a facebook group or something for study groups? Being an online program, it will be nice to have colleagues to study with and help keep us on track.
