Got my acceptance today!! So excited! I’ve also been accepted to HFU and still waiting to hear back from 1 other school. Jefferson is my top choice though, so I’m super pumped! Congrats to everyone else who have also received acceptance and good luck to everyone still waiting to hear back or waiting for interviews. You’ll do awesome ? 

How was your interview? I have mine next Wednesday. Would love to know the questions and any tips! 

Hey guys! I interviewed yesterday morning and got accepted today! So excited to meet everyone and get through this together. Good luck to everyone still in the process, I know you can do it ! ?

Ahhhh congrats! Someone from admissions called me yesterday that I needed to take a lab but said they’d love to interview me yet I haven’t gotten an interview invite yet! So crossing my fingers! 
 

would you mind sharing your stats? I’m so nervous ?

Also did anyone get accepted with having 3 pre recs in progress?? I am currently taking nutrition, micro, and anatomy

Don’t be nervous! I know it’s easier said than done but I promise it is so laid back and everyone interviewing with you feels the same exact way. Like a couple people mentioned they will send out questions before hand just go over them and be yourself! 
 

I finish undergrad in may, but currently my overall GPA is a 3.54 and I had all a’s and b’s in prereqs except for Chemistry I had a c. You can still get accepted if you have things left to finish, your admission to the program will just be contingent upon finishing what they said you need to finish. You got this! I know you can do it, you’ll be right at orientation in may looking back saying this was a breeze, the easy part! ❤️

Congrats!! Amazing!! Can you share some of the questions they asked? 

Hey everyone! 

I got invited to interview on 10/13 and have it scheduled for 10/27. For those that have already gone through the interview process - how soon before your interview date did you receive an email with additional information? 

I'm anxiously trying to prepare and want to make sure I review all possible questions. 

Thank you!

The email with the details is sent to you 24 hours to the time of your  interview. (FYI: In case you don't see it appear in the "Inbox" tab of your email, check the "promotions/ spam" folder. That's where mine was sent to ;) GoodLuck !!

hi everyone, this might be a silly question, but I was wondering if anyone can give me any insight on the differences between the two campuses for the program? which one are you applying to and why? I can't find much information online ? I'm applying from california and have actually never been to the east coast ever, so any information would be super helpful. thanks so much!

Center City campus is downtown and is better than the Dixion campus. I am from Philly, and I can tell you that the Abington township is boring, very suburban. I personally enjoy Center City because there is a lot to do, cafes, restaurants, bars all of it.

I don’t believe they care. I could tell that almost everyone in my interview group were in their bedrooms like I was. The people interviewing us were also at their homes (it looked like). I would obviously just make sure your background (wherever that is) looks clean/put together! Times are weird/crazy so they’re very understanding. They don’t even mention or point anything out! They were super nice 

thank you so much for the response! ?

awesome, thanks so much for your input! what about parking and getting around to clinicals and all? do people usually drive?

That depends on the clinical sight. If the clinics are in the city SEPTA is everywhere. SEPTA also goes out to Abington. There are trains, subway, the L, buses, trollies, etc. Having a car would be a hassle in the city with parking and all. However, if you went to Dixion, no need to worry about parking, I would deff recommend a car for Dixion though.
