CASPA Walkthrough Webinar

from The Pre-PA Club

CASPA is open. Let's walk through it together. This is the audio from my CASPA walkthrough webinar, where I go section by section - personal information, academic history, experiences, supporting documents - and point out where people get stuck. A few things I hammer on. Keep your contact info current, because programs will email you and you will miss it. Request every transcript from every school you ever attended, including that one summer class you forgot about, because a missing transcript stalls your entire application. And expect CASPA to crash near deadlines. Build in buffer. I also cover the COVID essay and how to answer it without writing a novel. Short, honest, specific. Move on. The biggest mistake I see isn't a bad answer. It's an incomplete application sitting in verification while rolling admissions fills seats. What I cover: A section-by-section pass through CASPA Transcripts, verification, and how long it really takes Logging experiences and hours correctly The COVID essay and how much to say Planning around CASPA slowdowns and crashes Why submitting early beats submitting perfect Resources: Free PA School Application Timeline: https://www.thepaplatform.com/services/free-application-timeline CASPA GPA Calculator: https://www.thepaplatform.com/pa-school-caspa-gpa-calculator Supplemental Application Library: https://www.thepaplatform.com/supplemental-library Pre-PA Counseling: https://www.thepaplatform.com/services/pre-pa-counseling Mentioned in this episode: CapYear Training Get $200 Off CapYear Academy Looking to boost your clinical experience this summer?
