ethaner63 Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 Good job getting it in so early Ifenio! I ended up having to wait quite a bit to figure out LoR stuff on CASPA. You must have been on point getting your references to complete your letters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This year I used my paid time off to take a week off from work and got it done haha. Best of luck to you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If youve got a strong application I'd say go for it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I submitted CASPA on 5/12 and supplemental on 5/22. Last year I submitted everything mid-June and still got an interview invite, but it was for the last day of interviews. It's pretty much impossible to gauge how they decide who/when they invite candidates. People applied wwaaayyy after me last year and were interviewed before me.

TheRunningSloth Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Hey! So I just recently typed my essays and then I checked the "ready for review" box and I proofread my essays after I copied and pasted them to the box. When I clicked submit there was a bunch of weird symbols in my essay that I went back and deleted. I clicked the submit button again and they aren't there anymore. Is CU going to get the essay with the weird symbols or are they going to receive the updated version? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The school should be receiving the version without symbols Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alfrid Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 Can someone honestly tell me if there's still any point in submitting right now? Or am I just wasting time and money? GPA 3.3 :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are rolling admissions and their spots for interviews and admitted students fill up fast. They even mentioned that people applying late (right before their deadline) are probably not going to going to get granted an interview. They also said that there's less likely to be open seats when they have interviews at later dates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaitlynD Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 Did anyone else submit early but hasn't received an invitation yet? I'm starting to get really nervous. I submitted CASPA on May 2nd and received a confirmation that my secondary was received on May 17th. I applied last year and interviewed but did not get in. This is by far my top choice school. Also, does anyone know of someone who was a reapplicant and got in here? Stats: CGPA: 3.98 SGPA: 4.0 3000+ hours as a phlebotomist in a hospital (one of my app improvements, only had about 1000 last time) 51 volunteer hours in a homeless shelter over the winter (this was the main thing I did to improve my app, had almost none) 15 volunteer hours at health fairs Shadowing MDs/PAs 100 hours LOR from 2 MDs, my Lab Director, my direct supervisor and 1 undergrad professor (final improvement, last year I had my Lab Director, a boss from a previous job, and 3 professors) I'm mostly worried that because I interviewed here before and am a reapplicant that they will overlook me completely :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am in the same boat as you just patiently waiting hoping for an interview invite. I would imagine that if you interviewed last year and didn't get in but had some application improvement that will not overlook you. Did you apply to other schools? Your app is very strong academically and now your HCE is pretty strong as well, I would think you will get interviews this year for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
futuretxpa Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 So I submitted my CASPA in June and was going to submit the supplemental tonight...I was kind of waiting because this program is really far away from me and I didn't want to waste money on travelling if I got into a program closer to me first. But is it worth it to submit the supp since its so late? I already paid the $51 for CASPA :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I already paid the $51 for CASPA :( I not one to be negative, but as others have said this school really emphasizes early application, I think applying within a month of the deadline is not ideal. Especially given that they have already sent out invites for two out of four interview sessions that they generally do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you or anyone else know if it is helpful/harmful or no effect to email the info email address pa-info@ucdenver.edu to inquire about app status? I'm having a hard time playing the waiting game, especially knowing that invites have already been sent out for half the interview dates...

I don't think it will hurt your chances but it won't help either. They will more than likely say it is under review. They don't send out rejections till after all the interviews are done.
