pdelaney22 Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 So I called the admissions office and they informed me that they should be setting up a Facebook page around September. Anyway, I was planning on using the page to see who was interested in off-campus housing to hopefully save some money. - Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gpangind Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Fitzy, Thank you for your response. So when CASPA opened April 17 2014, when would I potentially start if I were accepted.. because on CASPA it said "January 2015 start date." Sorry, I'm just confused. Thank you So does this mean that we have applied to 2016 if we applied after April 17, 2014?? I was confused by the January 2015 start date and seeing that people have interview/accepted before CASPA opened! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fitzy Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 I agree, it can be a little confusing. CASPA has two different options for MCPHS-Worcester. MA MCPHS University – Worcester (January 2015 start) 8/1/2014 MA MCPHS University – Worcester (January 2016 start) 3/1/2015 Just select the program with the start date you want when you are picking your participating programs. A lot of us that were accepted participated in the previous CASPA cycle, just like you would if you applied to the 2016 start date. My biggest suggestion would be to contact MCPHS-Worcester before you submit your applications. Make sure they are still offering interviews/positions for the class starting in 2015. These forums are great for getting other applicants opinion, but we can not give you any official answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rusamt Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 Hi Hiral905, do you remember when you received your financial aid package? I called the office and they said that we would get it late October. That seems rather late though seeing as payment is due by December 15. Also, did they offer enough to cover all expenses or did you have to take out private loans? Thanks!

Though it may not seem like it, it was plenty of time to get it through. And yeah for the most part everyone was satisfied with their loans. I haven't heard people complain about it at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smithr Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Sounds like a great idea. I live just outside of Worcester and am one of the medics for Worcester so I can help people with what's good neighborhoods and great places to eat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lynchm2559 Posted August 27, 2014 Author Share Posted August 27, 2014 I wonder if for those of us doing campus housing if we will be housing with others within our program or if it will be with students from other programs? Does anyone know anything about that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nmc5108 Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 I'm a current first year pa student and myself and some others got a fellow pa as a roommate but others didn't. I think it just depends on where you're living/what's available. Feel free to message me with other questions, I know I had a lot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KellyM Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 Hi All! I was accepted to the 2015 PA Program somewhere around March and have made a deposit, although I am still waiting to hear back from other schools. I am looking to live off-campus, but need to wait on other program's decision before starting that process. I look forward to meeting you all and hope we have a great 2 years!
