lamapa Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Hey everyone! I'm really new to the application cycle and anxious about it so I'd appreciate any responses. After submitting your supplemental, about how long did it take them to get to your application? Did they notify you when they began to review your application? Any info is appreciated, the waiting game is so excruciating. Thanks! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paramedick Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 @Laurin I applied on the 5th and the admissions dept called on the 7th to let me know my application was in review and to expect a few weeks on interview determination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ERmedic Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Hey guys I have a question. This past summer semester I took organic chemistry and medical terminology and I submitted my CASPA early on in the subsequent fall semester. Because I finished the class so close to the date I submitted my CASPA, those grades were not reported in my CASPA application. I called Ms. Hoffman-Hodge and told her about it and she told me to send another official transcript from my school. All that is squared away but my question is, what classes make up the science classes that contribute to the science GPA? Is it all science classes I've ever taken (intro to chemistry for example) or is it strictly the biology, chemistry 1 and 2, microbiology, A&P 1 and 2, and organic chemistry classes? And also is medical terminology classified as one of these science classes? I'm just trying to make sure I have all my GPAs straight and this is driving me nuts! Any help is appreciated, thanks!

Best source to reconcile how CASPA calculated your GPA is the CASPA FAQ. Look under CASPA Course Subjects and the list is fairly comprehensive as to what is considered what. A few probably aren't where you'd expect, e.g., Medical Terminology is in English. See also Verification: Grade Point Average (GPA) Calculations. I was able to tie mine out pretty much 100%.

jwh7031 Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 CONGRATS TO THOSE OF YOU ACCEPTED !! I'm sure you're all really excited.... there were a lot of applicants this year, in the thousands, so those of you invited to interview is a HUGE accomplishment in itself!! For some reason they have been really "selective" this year, i would say maybe only 10% of the class is filled, so don't give up hope if you were waitlisted. there is someone in my class that was waitlisted and got his invite a week INTO school, so you never know! Keep your heads up, if you want it bad enough it will happen! best wishes, Justin PA-S1 Nova Ft Myers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c.tremblay Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Justin, thanks for that post! So glad to hear there's still plenty of time to be accepted!!! I can't believe someone got in when school already started, just shows anything can happen! good luck to you in school!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

huda0315 Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Hey guys. Does anyone know about any grants or scholarships I can sign up for to help with tuition?The financial aid office can give you some info if you didn't get it during your interview day. There are a few different opportunities for assistance. Hope that helps! Huda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
