2019-2020 Application Cycle


Recommended Posts

Since no one has posted an invite, it makes me wonder if they're behind this year, possibly b/c of CASPER? Or just no one that got one posts on this forum haha

I do think it would be really odd if there were invites and none of those people were active on this forum. I feel like it’s been forever! Good luck to you!

Me, too! I am just surprised that they are so much later this year compared to last!

Thank you, and to you, as well!

Did anyone get an email stating that their CASPer scores had been received? 

No I did not receive an email stating that the scores were received. I just saw through CASPer that the scores were sent, but the school never sent a confirmation that they received them.

Casper was optional right?

I want to say yes but I’m not sure. I took Casper for another program but didn’t send my scores to Hardin Simmons. Before I even took CASPer, I got an email from Hardin Simmons saying they had everything they need from me. I’m a reapplicant and got an interview here last year without doing Casper. I would contact them to be sure.

Yeah I got that same email as well. Thanks!

I got an interview for 8/5 as well. 

I was verified on 6/18.

This is my second time to apply. First time I applied last year, they rejected me quick. 😅 But I got more PCE, took an additional psych class, wrote a better essay, and got better letters of recommendation. 

Hope this helps someone.

For those who received the invite, when was your app verified? Mind sharing your stats?

And congrats!!

My app was verified by CASPA 6/5 and Hardin-Simmons sent the "we have everything we need" email 6/6. They sent me the interview invite 7/8 for 8/5. I took the CASPer test on 6/2 as I saw it mentioned on CASPA so thought it was required. 

Stats:

2500+ pce (CNA and currently hemodialysis technician)

150+ volunteer hours

56 shadowing hours (1 PA)

overall science gpa 3.68 (CASPA calculated)

Hope this helps. I am a re-applicant and probably what helped is this time I applied really early in the cycle instead of towards the end right before the deadline and have a lot more pce. Last time I did not receive an interview and was rejected outright.
