Eliment Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 Currently I am living in Germany due to the military and I am going to school in a blended format online and some in class here in Germany but the school i'm enrolled in is mostly an online college. Will PA programs look down on the online degree or will this make me less competitive? Right now I have 10 years HCE, a 3.679 cGPA, a 3.4sGPA, tons of shadowing hours and I could get letters of rec from 2 PA's and a Physician and I plan to volunteer at the Red Cross here is Germany this year as well. Haven't taken the GRE yet but I plan on doing so towards the end of undergrad. I am majoring in Management Studies with a minor in Biology and I am one year away from graduating and I am wondering if I should just wait to complete my degree til I get back to the states and transfer to a traditional college. Any thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator EMEDPA Posted February 4, 2017 Moderator Share Posted February 4, 2017 should be ok as long as it is an accredited program Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishbum Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 It shouldn't be a problem. I did my B.S. online and was never once even asked about it during admissions. Some programs will want science lab prerequisites to have been completed live, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoCalPA Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 Same here. Bachelor's of Health Science from Nova Southeastern Univ and never questioned about it. I don't think anyone even thought it was online. Although my science pre-requisites were all in person.

SoCalPA Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 Just make sure you get the degree from a school that also issues brick and mortar degrees. Not ONLY online degrees. Sent from my SM-G925P using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

924er Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 Nope I went to Grand Canyon University. A FOR profit Christian university that has about 100 commercials a day and I got in. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
