brandonhughey Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 I also applied this cycle! Anxiously waiting until June to hear back. Question though.. I am going on a medical service trip in April. Would it be worth reporting this to EVMS once completed? I know EVMS values community service on applications.

currentPA Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 I just submitted my application today. Since it’s the end of CASPA season essentially, do you think it’ll go through by Thursday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would it be worth reporting this to EVMS once completed? I know EVMS values community service on applications. I would say no, but you could definitely work it into an interview response. There's no practical way to report it besides directly though email, since only grades and contact information can be updated through applications.

They only require you have a "complete" status before the deadline--not verified. What is your status right now?

currentPA Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 For the introductory/general psychology prerequisite, they don't take AP credit to test out and my university wouldn't let me take the class anyways. I substituted child/adolescent psychology instead...would I have any problems with this? I already put abnormal psych for my upper level psychology.

You won't have any recourse if it's not acceptable, but at least you'll know for sure sooner than later.

paprogramfinder Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 I responded to BrandonHughey in a private message, but I wanted to let everyone know that you can update your CASPA application to add experience to include work/volunteer/etc. I did forget to say make sure when you hit submit it is right, because you CANNOT go back and correct. it is the same as submitting originally. Also, note that once you update it automatically sends a notice to every program you have applied to that you updated. But another program coordinator said to notify them when you update. That is because she said they get 100s of email notifications from CASPA every day. If you email, the admissions person at the school then they will know for sure. I also suggest you put the experience description and hours in the email, just as you did in CASPA. You don't want to go overboard on updating work hours, but it cannot hurt to do it every so often. I.e. I submitted my CASPA application in May 2017, so before I submitted to EVMS, I updated my work experience because I had another 10 months of experience. it was actually the same position so at the beginning of the description I put UPDATE and then gave description. From my experience, many programs keep a file and they add this update to the file. GOOD LUCK to ALL!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paprogramfinder Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Most of you would probably already do this, but I didn't mention that when I finish a class, I update CASPA, but I also notify any programs I have applied to, for the same reason stated above.

Hi As long as you have 2 psychology courses, you should be fine. Assuming at least 3 credits and B- grade or better. But, for CLEP testing, you don't have to go through your school. Just sign up online and take the test and report the grade directly to the PA program Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just so you know about 3 months ago I asked them if they accept AP credit and they said they accept it for only 2 prerequites only! I took AP psych as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
