St. George's Physician Associate Program 2017 Entry

Hey everyone, I couldn't find a thread for this years entry so I though I'd make one. I already have an offer and thought I'd make this for those of us who had questions regarding the finance and stuff we need to submit etc

Hey! Congrats on your offer - I got my offer last Friday :smile:

I was wondering have you managed to download an acceptance slip from the admissions portal? I can't seem to find it anywhere

Congratulations!! I got mine on Friday too, when did you have your interview? I wonder if we've crossed path already hahah
Nope neither can I to be honest, I only saw the 'Respond to offer' button which was found at the bottom and confirmed my offer that way :/
I was planning on calling them tomorrow to ask as I was also unsure whether I should submit all the documents they're asking for again as I've already provided those at the interview.

Did you manage to find the occupational health form? I couldn't find that either..

Congrats! I got my offer on Friday as well. I can't find any of the forms either! I thought I was the only one that couldn't fine them. There are no links on the admissions portal to any of the forms, mentioned in the email.

Hey everyone and congratulations on the offers!! I got an offer too, I think they are going to email us the occupational forms at a later date but I'm not entirely sure.

I had my interview way back in March (I think it was the 30th) so it's been a horribly long wait haha!!
Yeah I firmly accepted my offer using the 'respond to offer' button on the portal too so maybe that's what they mean with regards to the acceptance slip. I have sent them an email just to clarify everything but I'm yet to get a response. I'm really glad I'm not the only one though who can't find anything :smile:

Hi everyone,

I've just called admissions and the guy said that the 'respond to offer' button is what they mean by acceptance slip. You just need to click on that and confirm your offer. In regards to the occupational health form, he said that that will get emailed to us later on along with the DBS information.

Does anyone know what we need to upload in terms of academic qualifications? I don't receive my original certificate until the 26th July, do I send it by mail or do I scan and upload it? Can I provide my transcript instead until then?

As the person above said, the facebook group has really helpful tips. https://www.facebook.com/groups/PhysicianAssociateUK/
I think the only advice I can give is read through all instructions very thoroughly and think about what qualities they're looking for and how you would put that across to them. They're not really testing for your medical knowledge and things like that but more on what type of applicant you are and how you deal with things. Best of luck with the interview!

I think scanning it and emailing it to them should do the job. I've already graduated and all they asked me for was a scan of my certificate so I assume it would be the same for you. I think the deadline for you to send your qualifications in is the 31st of July so you have time :smile:

Hey everyone, this is random but I am going to St Georges in september for midwifery (maybe i shall see some of you there :smile:

) but genuinely I just saw this thread and was interested in what a phssician associate is?? I did a quick search and it said something about it being a new role within the NHS but out of personal interest can anyone properly explain? For example will I be working with any of you guys as a midwife? Also well done for getting offers :biggrin:

If you're talking about the document titled 'PA Acceptance Form', emailing them should do the job.
I just printed, signed and scanned it back to them and they acknowledged it without any problems.

I know, I've lost count of the number of documents we've had to deal with lool
I've sorted my DBS I'm still trying to sort my Occupational Health form, my GP surgery is basically ridiculous and keep cancelling my appointment so now I have to wait till the 10th to see my GP and sign my form.

What about you? Have you managed to get your vaccinations sorted as well?
