Required Materials for a complete CHA/PA Program Application

1. Verified CASPA application including three letters of recommendation. The CASPA application is now open.

3. Nonrefundable $55 supplemental application fee. You can pay the supplemental application fee at PA - Supplemental Application Fee.

If you received a CASPA fee waiver this cycle, you may qualify for a waiver for this fee by uploading your CASPA approval email to your supplemental application.
