MagicMorty Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 Thought I'd get a new topic for the 2017-2018 cycle started. I submitted my application on 7/30 and received a confirmation eMail on 7/31. I eMailed a question to the program and received a very quick, helpful response. I'm impressed so far and hope I can get an interview with my weaker stats. My stats: Overall GPA: 3.39 uGPA: 3.36 sGPA: 3.68 GRE: 310 Volunteer: ~1000 hours PCE: ~2000 hours Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klpenceRT Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 hello, I am very nervous this is my first time applying to any programs and the waiting game is intense. I have great PCE- I have been a registered respiratory therapist in the area for 6 years now I will have >10,000 hours, so hopefully that will help me out. My stats are a bit low so I am hoping to get an interview and show them that this is something that I am very passionate about. Best of luck to everyone.

Have you completed the secondary application from SAU yet? I'm wrapping it up in the next few days and intend on sending it to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudeboyirie Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 Do you mind sharing what is on the secondary application? My CASPA is currently being verified, so I'd like to get a jump on the secondary if possible. Thanks and good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klpenceRT Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 I don't remember all of the questions, sorry I filled it out months ago. I think they ask: why I wanted to become a PA/ what would make me a good PA? It is important not to just put down your personal statement because they already have that from CASPA. Good luck as well!

Yeah I was a little surprised given the November 1st deadline, but I have heard from a current student that they are trying to get a jump start on things this cycle due to the larger and more competitive applicant pool this year.
