CASPer at VCU

Members don't see this ad.

Just received the VCU secondary, and it contains the following in regards to CASPer:


" A complete file consists of your supplemental application, CASPer test, your letters of recommendation, payment of the supplemental fee, and a copy of your US or Canadian green card".....

"Once your supplemental application requirements have been completed, your profile will then be forwarded to the subcommittee for review. "

"The Virginia Commonwealth University School of Medicine (VCU SOM) is now incorporating the American Professional Health Sciences (CSP10101) CASPer test as a part of its holistic review process. All applicants wishing to be considered at VCU SOM should complete this assessment in addition to the AMCAS application. For the 2019 cycle Casper results will only be utilized during the discussion for admission ranking which occurs immediately after your interview."

So I am a bit confused, does this mean that I can turn in the secondary without CASPer and be considered for an interview? I am taking CASPer this Sunday but it takes up to a month for the scores to be released so it would be awesome if I did not have to wait for this.

Thanks in advance for any input

bump - would like to know the answer to this too! Will VCU only send out IIs once they also receive CASPer?

still relevant for me as well. Just finished their essay but will take a few extra days to edit everything if it won't be complete until CASPer sends scores anyways
