Apply early (interviews offered as applications verified). Preference to applicants with 2 of 3 LORs from physicians/PAs/clinical supervisors. Campbell students/alumni meeting minimums and applying by June 1 priority deadline receive a guaranteed interview. Pharmacy/vet/lab-tech hours count only as supplemental beyond the 1,000 direct PCE hours.
Summarized from the program’s admissions information. Confirm current selection criteria with the program.
Program admissions informationClinical rotations are arranged by the program's placement team rather than left to students to find, using a “home base” model that keeps students within a reasonable driving radius of the base they choose. The admissions team said non-traditional roles such as medical interpreting can count as direct patient care when the experience meets their criteria — they review experiences individually, so ask rather than assume. Applicants with military backgrounds were encouraged to use CASPA's life-experience section to tell that story properly. The program highlighted community and underserved-care work, including mobile outreach and a student/staff-run free clinic.
