Looking for more Likely School Selections [3.95 GPA, 1490 SAT, pre-med or other pre-health]

Me too. Usually BSN would transition to APRN as a next step, not PA.

Maybe the OP can clarify this.

I meant accelerated BSN or PA path after obtaining a BS, likely majoring in neuroscience/biochemistry/biology etc. Has also expressed some interest in finding more out about public health graduate options. Nothing is set in stone.

Yes, Emory has been discussed, but as you say, it’s a reach and kid has more preferred reaches and high targets.

That makes more sense. Just a reminder that PA programs require a lot of direct patient care hours.

There is time to figure all of this out.

Given the major (neuroscience, biochemistry, biology) your student might discover a new interest or change their mind several times. They have already discussed med school, nursing, PA and public health.

@MOT0608x2 - you’ve not heard of Furman. Often time name recognition is sports related. They’re not in the same league football wise - they are in a smaller division but played Clemson today. They’re on national tv.

If you are full pay, you may want to look at Tufts. Technically it’s a reach but they seem to love full pay students.

Our area sends a ton of kids who go to Tufts. They are typically not a top 1% kid, but really smart, top 10%, 1450-1500 SAT, full pay families.

The OP’s kid doesn’t want to be in the Northeast cold weather, so Tufts won’t work.

Missed that.
