amesch1 Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 I know I am way ahead of the system being that the 2015-2016 cycle is still underway, but I'd like to get an idea from those applying currently what to expect and what is has been like with CASPA.

PA1852 Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 I applied last year and was put on the alternate list... They usually don't interview until october .... If you have questions call them ...

amesch1 Posted August 25, 2015 Author Share Posted August 25, 2015 Did you go to an information session? I went to the NOLA program already, but I didn't really like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amesch1 Posted August 25, 2015 Author Share Posted August 25, 2015 Also, what kind of HCE, scores, etc. did you apply with?I talked to one girl who had the bare minimum as far as GRE and HCE and she got accepted to Shreveport a couple of years ago.

I talked to one girl who had the bare minimum as far as GRE and HCE and she got accepted to Shreveport a couple of years ago. I had a 3.46 overall at the time last year. I had a 302 gre with a 4.0 in writing.... I had worked as a scribe in the Er for about 5 months when I got my interview. This year my gpa is a little higher and I have now worked 1 year as a scribe and I got a job a view months ago performing cardiac stress tests. I didn't go to their info session but the director has come to the pa club meetings many times at LSU that I attended.

Mrs.arrington13 Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Thanks ! Trying to stay positive . I'm a Texas resident though, so that could be hurting me . Fingers crossed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEB1985 Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Thanks ! Trying to stay positive . I'm a Texas resident though, so that could be hurting me . Fingers crossed. From what I gathered at the information session, it seemed like it would be extremely difficult to get in from out of state. I wanna say it's a class of 38 and they accept 35 from Louisiana.

NEB1985 Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 Anybody have any info on the interviews themselves and what to expect? No, but Mrs. Lurry said they would be sending out more details via email around a week before the interview, so I imagine we'll hear something this week.
