GottaHaveFaithPrePA Posted April 14 Author Share Posted April 14 (edited) Hello Everyone! I know it is early but CASPA opens in a few weeks and I wanted to start talking about this cycle. I plan to apply maybe May or June. Edited May 13 by GottaHaveFaithPrePA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tacoloverPA Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 Good luck everybody! From my understanding, Touro University has multiple locations, including Nevada and Vallejo. Is anyone applying to more than 1 location? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GottaHaveFaithPrePA Posted May 20 Author Share Posted May 20 I am not but you can attend the Vallejo Q&A and there are always people applying to the new LA campus attending it as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romeo Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 Do you think it will be too late to apply in June? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

June is still a good time, and actually right now there are transcript errors with CASPA causing many applications to be delayed 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GottaHaveFaithPrePA Posted May 28 Author Share Posted May 28 20 hours ago, Romeo said: Do you think it will be too late to apply in June? No! I am applying in June. I spoke with the admission advisor, and she stated that she usually starts reviewing applications in early to mid July. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evelynthepa Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 I can't seem to find anything regarding a secondary application for this school. Does this program require one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tacoloverPA Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 (edited) I swear this program use to not require a supervisor LOR, but now it does. Can anyone confirm if this is a new change? They emailed last week their updated requirements for this current cycle, which included the supervisor LOR but I could have sworn the LOR requirement used to be that 1/3 had to be from a HCP?? Not sure If I miswrote it, but that's what I had on my Excel sheet. If it's true, I'm pretty upset they're doing this a month after the cycle opened...

I heard the new requirement in the upcoming cycles will be a letter from a PA at least 1/3. You can email the admission advisor, she will know.

I went to the information session last week and this is not true. 1/3 must be from a licensed healthcare provider (PA, MD, DO, NP), although I'm sure a PA LOR would be most competitive. The newest LOR update is that one must be from a supervisor or manager, healthcare preferred. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats unusual, even on the website it still says: One letter must be from a licensed healthcare provider (i.e., PA, MD, DO, or NP I don’t understand how they expect applicants to know this information if it’s not on the requirements page, or was informed to applicants during the information session last week. I have a PA LOR but I can’t help but think this is so unorganized of them to change so last minute. Edit: I assume you're a prospective applicant for this current cycle, so curious why the adcoms person said 'next upcoming cycle' not 'this current cycle' Edited June 12 by tacoloverPA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope this doesn't affect your application, it's unfortunate that they keep changing things. Looking at the email, they do say 'NEXT upcoming cycle' not 'this current cycle' but if you don't have a PA LOR I'd recommend reaching out to them in case. But, considering that it's not updated on their website and was not included in the info session/email sent out 2 weeks ago with new requirement updates, I do not think they can hold it against you.
