They moved it on to CASPA this year. The questions in their tabs used to be on the website as a separate form.

I’m probably not much help. I used my college English class and another writing literature class for those prerequisites. If you sign up for an info sessions you could likely get clarification on it.

Last year I emailed the admissions team with this same question. I took two writing-heavy Literature courses in undergrad, and even submitted detailed syllibi, but they said since neither of them had "composition" in the title, I'd need to take an English Composition or Writing class specifically to meet that requirement. So I ended up taking a 100 level English Composition course at my community college last year which delayed my application til August ...still got rejected w/o interview lol BUT means I'm all set this year! Hope that helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alvll Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 First time applicant here, submitted to CASPA on June 29th, verified on July 1st. I haven't gotten anything from UW confirming that my application is moving forward. I have seen a few posts that it took up to two weeks to hear that. I am slightly concerned about one of my prerequisites not meeting the requirements. If your application is NOT moving forward, do you get an email from UW? So that you have time to quickly take another class or submit the syllabus to demonstrate that it meets prereqs? thanks and good luck all!

Hi, It took roughly 1-2 weeks after verification for me to get the email from MEDEX stating that I fulfilled the requirements during both cycles. You will get an email from MEDEX within that timeframe to inform you! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is my understanding that if your application is not accepted for faculty review, it will no longer be considered for the cycle and you’d have to re-apply next year. If there is a problem with a single prerequisite, they may reach out for the syllabus. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sort of the same boat. cGPA/2.78. sGPA/2.72 Finished a masters in physiology, last 60 is 3.84. (i know GRE is recommended, but not if you have a masters!) 16k PCE hours as a critical care and emergency room tech. I'd say apply! The class profile last year for last 60 hours was an average GPA of 3.45! I just put my application in today 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mmram Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 (edited) Hi! A little late in applying but I wanted to make sure I had a competitive amount of PCE hours first. I have been working on my personal narrative but now realize I am a little confused on what the formatting should be. The instructions say "compose a persona narrative answering the questions below..." and then at the end states "remember to format the statements with a space between paragraphs." Do you all interpret this as one essay that encompasses all the questions or answering each question separately in its own statement?

So that you have time to quickly take another class or submit the syllabus to demonstrate that it meets prereqs? thanks and good luck all! Hi! One of my prereqs (stats) is in progress (I'm taking a self paced course right now that should be finished soon). My application was verified through CASPA shortly after submission on June 10th. I got an email on June 15th that I didn't meet their requirements because I didn't have a completed statistics course that meets their requirements. I emailed to clarify that I would still be eligible once my transcript is submitted- they said that I could update my application and contact them, which would put my application back in the pool as long as the course is completed and the application is re-verified by CASPA prior to the application deadline. They said that the longer it takes the fewer interview spots will be left because of the rolling admissions. I had contacted them about my biostats class prior to applying and it didn't meet their requirements so I enrolled in a stats class through UNE whose syllabus they said meets their requirements. Hope that helps. Sorry its so wordy! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a rolling admissions school, they are reviewing applications by July and inviting people to interviews in August. Interviews start in September and continue through January, so applying in August is "later" but not too late. One main thing from MEDEX is that they are looking for applicants that plan to serve in the WWAMI area and/or are dedicated to the underserved. Your scribe experience at the community clinic is great. One last thing is that their website states the average PCE of accepted students is "a total of 6.5 years" which would be like 13k PCE hours. They DO accept students with less hours, and students with a lot more hours hence the average. Good luck this application cycle at wherever you decide to apply!
