lor_pa1057 Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 I was offered two interview dates and on Madison's website, they state that they interview about 20 people each week. Although, I'm not sure how many candidates are offered a wisPACT interview. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although, I'm not sure how many candidates are offered a wisPACT interview. I'd assume it would be less than 20 for wisPACT because it is a smaller class size.. not too bad!

lor_pa1057 Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 I would think so too. The wisPACT program is very new and UW-Madison has talked about increasing the number of students accepted into the program as it gets established. It is a very interesting track!

It started with only 4 people and I believe they aim to get up to 24 students. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paschoolgirl Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 Did they increase their class size to 24? I believe it's much less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nakais Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 Did they increase their class size to 24? I believe it's much less. This past cycle was 12. I read that the program wants to get up to 24 students but I do not think this cycle will except 24 students. Probably like 16? Not sure exactly on the acceptance number, though.

lor_pa1057 Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 UW-Madison was expecting to increase the number to 24 students in 2016, but it's just a projection from four years ago. It's written in an article about the wisPACT program from 2012. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paschoolgirl Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 Thank you both for the clarification. I hope that will be the case :). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Err01 Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 Are you guys referring to 24 students for the wisPACT or for the regular program? Does anyone know how many people they accept for the traditional program? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Bread Posted December 16, 2016 Author Share Posted December 16, 2016 I got invited to interview for the dual degree option on Feb 3rd and 4th but I think I'm going to turn it down as I'm in the process of committing to another program. Good luck everybody! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arm930 Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 Received an interview invite as well but will be turning it down as I've been accepted to my top choice. I hope this opens up a spot for someone else! Good luck to all those interviewing in the New Year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paschoolgirl Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 Can someone provide advice/thoughts for Day1 Interview dress code? Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katesters Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 Can someone provide advice/thoughts for Day1 Interview dress code? Thank you! I went business casual and wore suit pants and professional shirt but no blazer or cardigan. However, most people were business professional even the first day with full suits and jackets/blazers.

paschoolgirl Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 Thank you for your advice on dressing! It really helped. Katesters, Should I bring a resume? Did they say when the program will start? Thank you! (nervous here) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katesters Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 Thank you for your advice on dressing! It really helped. Katesters, Should I bring a resume? Did they say when the program will start? Thank you! (nervous here) I would say you don't really need to bring a resume since Caspa basically has our resume already. And if you've done anything new since submitting your app there is a chance to tell them. I think they said the program starts in later May, but I don't remember them giving a date. And I was super nervous too, but they truly are warm and welcoming and try their best to make everyone comfortable :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
