MFVC8 Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 Hi guys !! Question, for the document section in caspa for CV/RESUME. What are you adding ? The same 1 page resume or longer ? Are you including references and a cover letter ? Or? I don’t know what to include ! Please help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please help It's optional, I think, but I'm only going to upload a 1-page resume. No references or cover letter--I consider the evaluations my references and the application and supplemental is the "cover letter." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madip Posted June 2, 2020 Share Posted June 2, 2020 Received an email that supplemental applications will start being sent out Friday the 5th! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbacon25 Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 Received the supplemental application today. Is anyone else confused as to why they basically want you to restate all the information that is already on CASPA? Is this a test to see if we can enter the information correctly, or is there any alternative purpose for it? I want to make sure I fill it out correctly. Thanks! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jryland Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 I’m filling out the supplemental application today and I’m confused about a question. It asks us to list all PA programs we are applying to this year and the past. Is this only if we got or had an interview with them? Or do they want us to list all of the ones we applied to regardless? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking the same thing, hoping they're not trying to trick us! I am basically just shortening my CASPA experiences to 1-2 sentences. @Jryland, I am only listing the schools I applied to this year as I did not recieve any interview invites last cycle and I did not apply to any NSU schools last cycle. That's just my take on it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbacon25 Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 How are you guys going about answering the question about "Describe any circumstances that you feel might aid the admissions committee in their evaluation of your application."I dont feel like this is the appropriate place to discuss covid related stuff but maybe im wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just seeing this. I loved Nova Jax when I interviewed. The facility are great! They truly care about the student and they are very supportive, you deff get that vibe during the interview. Obviously, things are a bit different since we are doing everything online this semester, theres a learning curve on both sides. So far, I really like Jacksonville! I live in a cool part of town about 15 minutes from campus. Again, with covid and classes I haven’t had too much time to explore but so far I really like it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Received an email asking if I had completed the supplemental application. I wrote back and said I did not and to please resend it. Then I got an email back asking about my GRE scores because they are not good. I took it last year and had a bad test day and my retake day is in a week. So basically I was more or less denied a supplemental application until I answered her question about the GRE. I am a little put off by that. I understand its a concern, but it clearly states on my application my retake day. I am not impressed at all. I should have the same opportunity as every other student applying. Anyone have any thoughts? How bad was your GRE? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every applicant has the right to submit a supplemental application regardless. My quant was below the 40th percentile. And im scheduled to retake it. But why was I made to "plead my case?" I should have been sent a supplemental application because thats what I asked for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just recently submitted my applications and I did not realize how nervous it would be after hitting the submit button on CASPA. This is my first time applying as well and hopefully only cycle as well! I am interested in their PA/MPH program. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
