How to Apply
The Trevecca Nazarene University Physician Assistant Program utilizes the Centralized Application Service for Physician Assistants (CASPA). Students who wish to apply to the Graduate Physician Assistant Program must submit the application and documentation to CASPA.
The CASPA application must be completed online at www.caspaonline.org. Early applicants should apply upon opening of the application cycle in April. Remember that all shadowing and direct patient care hours must be logged at the time of submitting your application.
Applications must be submitted to CASPA no later than October 1st and must include the following documentation:
- Official transcripts for all schools attended. DO NOT send any to the program.
- Applicants must have three (3) letters of recommendation. One recommendation must be completed by a Physician Assistant.
- An official score of the Graduate Record Exam (GRE) must be logged on the CASPA application prior to October 1. The Designated Institution code for Trevecca Nazarene University is 0532.
- Applicants must submit all transcripts and scores directly to CASPA. If you are offered a seat in the program, an official transcript will be requested in the spring prior to matriculation. Additionally, a health history, physical exam, immunizations, and background check will need to be submitted before orientation in May.
No advanced placement is given to any student regardless of academic background, and no transfers of PA students are considered.
