Most programs that do take AP credits have a certain score that they will accept (a 4 or 5 for example) and then you’re all good Do you mind sharing the email address you sent your questions to? I am so sorry, I don't want to just email a random faculty member who may not be involved in admissions or the general gradadmissions@desales.edu one. Thanks so much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks so much Here’s what I used: mspas@desales.edu Got a response within a day, good luck!! They would probably want you to include some course descriptions or even links to the courses on a school website if you can find them. That will help them figure out if it’ll count for their requirements. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I posted my stats a couple posts back so hopefully it shows up there. Did you get an email from them stating that they received your application? I wouldn’t worry because it seems like things are going incredibly slow because of all the delays! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you learn anything interesting about the program? Yeah no problem! 8:00-9:00 is the program overview. You hear from the director about the program curriculum and he goes over some paperwork. 9:00-11:00 is a rotation of 30 minute segments. For me it went like this - 9:00-9:30 was a writing sample. (Don’t freak out it’s nothing crazy) 9:30-10:00 was a group activity where you had to demonstrate teamwork! Make sure you speak up in this one and demonstrate leadership skills too! 10:00-10:30 was an interview with a didactic professor 10:30-11:00 was an interview with a clinical coordinator 11:00-12:00 was listening to a class over zoom 12:00-1:00 was the virtual lunch with current PA students 1:00-1:30 was a virtual tour from the director and a final Q/A! Overall it was SUPER organized and went very smoothly!! The interview portion was pretty laid back and my interviewers seemed like they really just wanted to get to know me! There was no quizzing on anatomy or the history of PAs like someone said above ^ - However, I can’t speak for every interviewer! This was a great experience, but one thing I would recommend is that you sit in a comfortable chair. It’s a long time to sit and stare at your computer!! Good luck and let me know if you have any other questions! :)) Edited July 23, 2020 by prepajjjj 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
