Life Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Have you heard anything? Hey, no I haven't heard anything yet. When I went for interviews they told us it would be a while before we heard anything. When did you have your interview. I'm hoping they tell us soon, I need to take a couple classes for their program before August. If I don't get accepted then I don't have to rush to take them and can take them in the fall (they are not required at any other school). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heisman1979 Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Is anyone aware if there are more interviews being conducted? I just interviewed with the March 30 group. I thought it went really well. Anyone know if they're accepted from any previous interviews for Howard this cycle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heisman1979 Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Just got a rejection letter. I was in the March 30 interview group. Quite the quick turnaround, I wonder if they basically had the class picked prior to our interview. I'm in shock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jovelpa Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Can all applicants who got in start a FB page? I got in :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
briannab Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Hello, For those of you who have been accepted into the program I was wondering if you could provide some insight on what the application process was like for you as well as your academic statistics. I will be applying for 2016. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jovelpa Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 I applied through CASPA on 10/10/14. I am a BS in Soc/Spanish translation AS in Science with a concentration in CHEM. Prerequisite GPA 3.96 hours worked as a CNA 1000+. I got the first email telling me to file a FAFSA on Dec. I got an email telling me my app was being reviewed in January. I was accepted to the school not the program in FEB. Got my invitation to interview in FEB for March 3 did not hear back till April 4th. I was told 80 get interviews for 30 seats. In my group there were supposed to be 30 interviewing but only 12 or 13 showed. sorry this is so badly typed but if you got any specific questions you can message me. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MamboSauce Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 what were the average stats for your class....im just curious because I currently have a 3.52 MPH degree, with an average of 3.1 undergrad with about 8ooo hce hours, about a 3.25 preReqs and I also work as a social epidemiologist. just curious?

curbocation Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 @christ0ph3r thank you for posting that question! My stats look almost identical to your except you have more hce. My MPH will be in epi and biostats so hopefully my 3.7 master level gpa will make up for the 3.1 overall undergrad. I look forward to following your progress! I have a question in return about the application process. I just submitted my CASPA app and I realize I have to send my GRE and LORs separately but the rest of the info is confusing. Will I receive an email about what to do next because the website for the graduate application doesn't list PA as a graduate degree option.

MamboSauce Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 I had the same questions as well. Yes the BA-PA is now a MSPA program. I called the office and they stated that you need to fill out a general application of undergraduate studies for general entrance. The CASPA application is to get into the program. Also, GRE scores are not required for Howard University. Lastly, I suggest to increase your chances of acceptance, just take some undergraduate classes at a community college...this really did boost my undergraduate GPA up alot ever since receiving my MPH also, if your not accepted this year at least you will have a major boost for the coming year. Hope this was helpful. My last key advice is to once you graduate don't stop and be sedentary keep taking science classes until you get in to increase chances. @christ0ph3r thank you for posting that question!

tmtpe100 Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 I am a bit confused by the prerequisites for the PA program. The pdf provided seems like its designed for current Howard students. Can someone provide a list of prerequisite courses required by the program? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ahayes12 Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 I spoke with a lady in the PA department today and she said that list correct even if you didn't attend Howard and already have your baccalaureate degree.

tmtpe100 Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Physical education, Philosophy, African American studies, Microbiology, Nutrition, Medical Terminology, and Intro to Psychology are prerequisites? @Ahayes12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ahayes12 Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 @tmtpe100 that's what the lady said. I specifically asked her about medical terminology, nutrition and community health. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
