Can someone living in California share info on getting EMT experience or something similar. They are not offering any programs for under 18yrs.
I appreciate it very much.
Thanks in advance

Which state do you live in?

The national age a student can sit for the NREMT is 16, but obviously different states determine what they consider eligible for licensure in their state.

My C25 got their NREMT (and state licensure) at 16 but obviously nowhere will hire them. Need to be at least 18 (and some companies require 21.) for now, they ride along as a 3rd person on a volunteer ambulance (paramedic, adult EMT, plus my kid.) The org won’t allow them to learn how to drive the rig until at least their 18th birthday.

in CA it was not possible unless 18 years or older. Even to do courses related to EMT in private or community college it was not possible.

Since CA won’t allow it, you’re out of luck.

Thanks for the info.

Thank you! Did you come across any programs similar to EMT or hold some value for kids living in California, please share.

Hope everyone is doing well and good luck to all the applicants.

Anyone know if these programs sent out interviews yet ? Oklahoma, Tulsa, Texas Tech and Arizona? D didn’t hear from any of them yet. Thanks

I haven’t heard anyone mention those programs yet. The last one I’m waiting on is Pitt, literally SO NERVOUS

Good luck to you

Texas tech invites came today

Arizona APME mentions on their website interviews will be held on Mar 8 2024. I am assuming they will send out interview invites by Feb 15.

When will interviews take place?
Interviews will take place on March 8, 2024, and will be held via Zoom with about 30 applicants. We will not hold makeup interviews.

APME sends out interviews on 2/25.

Anyone know when does Stony Brook send out interview invitation?

Is 45 for all 3 feeder schools?

Some people got honors college acceptances this week. Don’t know if it’s rolling acceptances. From the list of honors college acceptances, they choose interviews in March.

hi i’m sorry I’m late to this, but has there been any updates from uconn syracuse or stony brook?

Just checking again — if anyone got interview updates from Tulsa on Friday. Thanks

Was Tulsa supposed to send invites on Friday?

Their site below indicates that interviews will be conducted on 2/19 so we assumed that interviewers will be informed by now. D didn’t hear anything so assuming she didn’t get the interview.
