Nvivian24 Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 Hi! Quick question… is the supplemental application just info and payment? Or are there more essay questions as well. I did the secondary essays through CASPA but want to confirm if there is more or not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HelloSSG Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 Anyone know how long it took for them to confirm that they received CASPA and send the link for the payment? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssantiago8 Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 Hello! I am stuck with two supplemental questions about being a reapplicant and not having a competitive GPA? Both are asking what did I do to improve. I shadowed more PAs, took more classes, and volunteer. I don't know if I should be more descriptive for one of them.

I don't know if I should be more descriptive for one of them. For the non-competitive GPA questions, I would talk about your grades and why you did poorly (personal reasons, bad study habits, poor time management, etc..). And what you did to improve. Whether that's re-taking classes, figuring out how to study, talking to your TA or professor more often, etc. Basically prove to them that you tried and will be a good student from here on out. For the re-applicant question, I feel like you should focus on all the other stuff since the question above already talks about your grades. So mention if you shadowed more, worked more hours in your job to improve patient care skills, volunteered at a shelter and developed better understanding of needs of community, took the GRE, took more classes to learn more, etc. I've been told that you should make use of the space they give you, so the more detailed, the better! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliPA91 Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 hey! Can anyone send me the link for the supplemental payment. I submitted my CASPA application today, but I still haven't received a link, and the supplemental payment is due by 8pm. I need the link to set up my account to pay, that's it. Thank you so much!!

The link has to be sent by the school because you need an account with them to access the supplemental payment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, yes I was worried about this. Thank you for everyone who reached out and tried to send me their link. I was emailed back by admissions and the director, and so far everything is OK. I'm still waiting to confirm, but because my CASPA was in by the deadline, I can still submit my supplemental fee, as they didn't note otherwise. Hopefully I have a chance to interview. Loving this community, thank you so much! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Front page on the website say its unpaid, but if u click the side links where it takes u to your profile it should say that its paid. Either way, i feel like if you have receipt of your payment then it shouldnt be a problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoCalPrePa1 Posted September 7, 2022 Author Share Posted September 7, 2022 I saw on CASPA "On-campus interviews are conducted October through December." so maybe we will hear back sooner this year since they decided to get rid of their priority date? 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chiprepa Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 This is what's in my portal: Thank you for submitting the Supplemental Application fee!You will be notified by email if you qualify for an interview invitation. If you are extended this invitation, you will be advanced to the next stage in the Portal where you will be able to sign up for an interview day and time. Interviews are typically conducted 1-2 Fridays or Saturdays in December through February. So confused when interviews start lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She said they are trying something new this year and will do interviews from October through December so interviewees don’t have to stress over the holiday season anymore. She didn’t give further details about how they’ll decide who gets an early interview date vs a later one. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
