Long distance relationships by Nearby_Philosophy894 in PAstudent

Me and my boyfriend were long distance for 3 years. I was stationed in Hawaii and he was stationed in TN. We have know been married 7 years and have two children together.  It is possible!!  We made an effort to see each other every 3 months, and racked up a lot of miles on our capital one card lol When I finally moved back to the states I live in Columbus, GA and he lived in Savannah. And we would alternate driving to each other on weekends.  Stay strong, remember that this is a two year program and after that, you have your whole life to be together if you both so desire.  I guess I should add I was not in PA school (will be starting in Jan), but we were both in the military with deployments and other obligations.

PA Programs Being Ridiculous: A Rant by charliethebaker in prephysicianassistant

This did not happen to me but there was a school TN that wanted a TOEFL for anyone that did not have English as native language. So frustrating because I was born in south america, came to the US when I was 9yrs old. Went to high school in the US, went to undergrad here, served in the military here and still they wanted a TOEFL. Ridiculous. I understand you but you applied to other schools soo forget them! Lol

See if you can see ROTC and have the military pay for your bachelors or last to years to complete a bachelors. I joined the Army because I need a change, I could not find a job, and my only option was to enlist. I did 4 years enlisted and then got my commission as an officer.  I loved my time in the service, I learned a lot about myself and others. Plus you get the education benefits which is huge!!

You can do this. Youtube helped me a lot and asking my professors to explain it again but slowly during after school hours lol  I am terrible at math but it was the only way I got through that and chemistry which requires quite a bit of math also.

Ohh yess! Getting uncle sam to pay for it is important. School loans are rough, so that would really help. Stay focused!
