SW2PA Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 So I got an email today that I didn't meet the minimum criteria. Do you think its worth disputing? I meet all the criteria except the 2 bolded where I feel like its up to interpretation. US Bachelor's degree (I have both a bachelors 2007 and a masters 2011) All required coursework (I have all prereqs) Minimum cumulative GPA and minimum science GPA of 3.0 (3.13 Science and 3.24 general) 1000 hours of direct patient care experience (13500 as a clinical social worker in a variety of settings, 900 as an EMT) 500 hours of community service experience benefiting underserved or disadvantaged populations (all my volunteer experience is with veterans so I think this is probably where I don't qualify since they're not a soup kitchen or DV shelter etc) Shadowing experience with a PA in an outpatient primary care setting (shadowed Neurosurgery, Occupational Health and Rhum) Two letters of reference with at least one from a medical provider (2 MDs, 1 PA and 1 LICSW wrote my letters) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kmarie91 Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Hi All, I am really hoping to apply to this program next year. I didn't see anything on their website about stats for those who matriculated. Those of you who were accepted, would you mind stating your GPA and hours of HCE/PCE. I would really appreciate it! Congratulations btw! Thanks K 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
