Figured I would open this thread up for those applying to the anesthesia program at University of Scranton. I know their Applications are about to close on Oct 1st 2023. Good Luck to all!

Thanks for that info! Do you know how many people get interviewed? I read in past threads that they interview a ton of people and it seems like they interview almost everyone that applies, or is the application pool that large for the program? I think last years thread someone said about 150 were interviewed ?‍?! And there's only like what 20 spots???

I don't know exact but those numbers sound right. Someone last year asked and they said around 150. We currently have 22ish in our class

Did they email you with details of the interview? (Also would appreciate any information about what the interview is like)

[Blair Luchs]

They said they would send out details for the interview as it gets closer to mid November. All they said was it would be via zoom. They called me look out for Scranton zip code

Hi, if you don't mind sharing, when did you submit and how many weeks after did they call? According to past students, the interview style is laid back. Focused more on EQ and personality questions.

I submitted late April and then asked them when they would start reviewing. They said they would start reviewing after the October 1 deadline but then I got a call September 29th for the invite to interview. So I'm not sure if they changed the policy. Has anyone else heard anything?

I think they start reviewing before the deadline since last year invites went out before October 1st
