My name is Markia and I applied to EVMS during the last cycle (23-24). I noticed that a new thread has not been created for this current cycle and wanted to create another space for those who have questions or want a community of peers. Last cycle, I was honored to be invited for an interview and fell more deeply in love with the program, staff, and student culture. Unfortunately, I was not selected to attend (yet 😉) but I have faith in myself and all of you! As I finalize my app I just wanted to wish everyone luck and am open to answering any questions.

For the last two years, we have been merging and integrating into Old Dominion University to become the largest health sciences university in Virginia. Formerly known as EVMS, we are now the Virginia Health Sciences Physician Assistant Program at Old Dominion University. Please keep this in mind when applying to our program.

NOTE: CASPA may still have us as EVMS, so please be sure to look at the school name carefully.

Different name, same program, and same great value for education in the PA profession.

For more information, please go to https://www.evms.edu/education/masters_programs/physician_assistant/

For admissions information, please go to https://www.evms.edu/education/masters_programs/physician_assistant/admissions_information/

My name is Nicole and I wanted to get this started for anyone who may have questions as they begin to submit their applications. Since EVMS does not use rolling admissions and begin reviewing applications in January, I won't be submitting my application until the end of December. This will be my second time applying to EVMS; the other cycle I applied in was 2021-2022. I had the opportunity to interview in that cycle and fell in love with the program during interview day. Sadly, I was not accepted to join that class but interviewing was a great learning experience, considering it was the first in-person interview I had done for PA programs. I chose not to apply in the 2022-2023 cycle because at the time, I had an acceptance to a program awaiting accreditation. Unfortunately, that program did not pan out and I was left with virtually no time to submit applications in that cycle. So I am starting fresh this cycle, and EVMS is my top choice program!! They released their wait pool for the 22-23 cycle today so just imagine yourself with an acceptance a year from now 😁 Good luck to everyone applying, & may the odds be ever in your favor 🤞

Starting this for those who want to discuss anything regarding EVMS for the new cycle. I’m still waiting to hear back from EVMS for this past cycle, but most of the acceptances have been sent and unless I get waitlisted & get really really lucky, I will likely end up being a second time applicant in this cycle. Good luck to everyone and can’t wait to talk with you all!

It's been quite a while since I was in undergrad and I will be taking most of the required courses again. I'm having difficulty finding all the course (Biochem mostly) all at the same school.

Any suggestions for schools in Hampton Roads or online?

If there is and I missed it, please let me know!!

I am signed up to attend the open house June 23rd from 1000-1200 and was wondering if anyone would be interested in meeting up afterwards to socialize and network. I live in the area so I can set up a space for us at a local venue. Depending on the number of those that RSVP, the venue may change, but it will be in Norfolk where the school is located.

I was thinking 1230 or maybe we should shoot for 1300 in case the open house takes longer than planned. Has anyone attended and can give some feedback?

I'll post this info on the pre-PA facebook pages and if enough interest is created, I'll make a FB event.

Best of luck to you all!!

To those who interviewed and were declined, do they send out a form stating where we can improve in our application if we reapply?
