Many applicants to PA School do not receive an acceptance letter. If you fall into this group, you are in good company. It’s a well-known fact that admission to PA School is competitive. The majority of those who apply are not offered a coveted seat. From my observation, it is often repeat applicants who make the best PA students (and PAs for that matter). It takes a level of determination and grit to overcome rejection and fight for your dream career. Those traits, though rare, make for excellent students and clinicians.
