Admissions Process

There are two applications to be completed.
Deadline for both applications: December 01

Rolling Admissions: The Admissions Committee will consider applications as soon as a completed CASPA and a completed ISU Graduate School application have been received. If all criteria are satisfied, applicants may be called for an interview and may be accepted before the application deadline. Admission decisions will take place in an ongoing, rolling manner.

1. CASPA Application:

The ISU PA Program participates in the Central Application Service for Physician Assistants (CASPA). Applicants must send the following to CASPA:

• Official transcripts
• Three (3) Letters of Recommendation
• CASPA requires a fee to be paid at the time of the application

Note: The CASPA application is a separate application from the ISU Graduate School application.

Go to www.caspaonline.org for the application and more information about the application process and fees.

2. ISU Graduate School

Applicants must also meet the admission requirements of the ISU School of Graduate Studies. The following items must be submitted to:

• GRE Scores: The GRE is required to apply to the ISU PA Program. (Please refer to the current Graduate School Catalog for minimum requirements.)
• Official transcripts**
• The Graduate School requires a fee to be paid at the time of application.

** CASPA DOES NOT forward transcripts. A separate set of official transcripts must be requested for ISU's Graduate School.
