Required Materials for a complete CHA/PA Program Application

1. Verified CASPA application including three letters of recommendation.

2. CHA/PA Program supplemental application. Your CASPA application must be submitted before you can access the CHA/PA Program supplemental application. An email with set-up instructions will be sent to you within 1-2 business days. The supplemental application for the 2026-27 admissions cycle will be available mid-May 2026.

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.

 4. CASPer is required for all applicants. CASPer is an online, video-scenario based, situational judgement test that assesses non-cognitive attributes. Results are only valid for one admissions cycle. CASPer dates are posted each year on the CASPer website in mid-March. You will be required to enter your CASPA ID for the CASPer assessment.
