chickitabanana Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 http://www.paprogram.yale.edu/admissions/prerequisites/experience.aspx I know one of my classmates was in the military for years prior to starting PA school. I don't know all of the details of what he did, however, I've definitely heard of others in classes before me who had military experience. So yes, I'm assuming they're military friendly (I don't know why they wouldn't be.) You can call the program and ask this question directly and I'm sure someone will be able to give you an accurate answer. Yale does not have a minimum number of HCE hours like other schools (though it is expected/encouraged). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 I'm prior service and I was accepted to the class of 2015. I wouldn't say they were military friendly, I would just say they were friendly. Seriously, I wouldn't worry too much if any school is "military" friendly. I would worry about making good grades and doing good work. I would recommend applying there. The school was great, the people were nice, and the PANCE pass rate is pretty damn good.
