Status of this program’s 2026-2027 cycle. Open. Rolling admissions. The CASPA verified deadline (application plus transcripts and at least two evaluations) is December 1, 2026. The university’s own processing fee is due December 7, 2026.
What Rosalind Franklin has published (from https://www.rosalindfranklin.edu/academics/college-of-health-professions/degree-programs/physician-assistant-practice-ms/application-requirements/, https://www.rosalindfranklin.edu/academics/college-of-health-professions/degree-programs/physician-assistant-practice-ms/how-to-apply/, and https://www.rosalindfranklin.edu/academics/college-of-health-professions/degree-programs/physician-assistant-practice-ms/common-questions/, all retrieved September 2, 2026):
- There is no supplemental application and no program-specific essay. The Application Requirements page says, in its own words: “This program does not have a supplemental application.” The only essay is the standard CASPA personal statement.
- There is a fee. The university’s pages disagree on the amount: the Application Requirements page says $60, while the How to Apply and Common Questions pages both say $75 and call it an “application processing fee.” Two of three pages say $75, and the How to Apply page is the one that describes how you actually pay it, so plan on $75 and confirm with the program. The fee is requested by the program after your complete application arrives, and it is due December 7.
- Prerequisite recency: coursework taken more than 10 years before matriculation (May 2027) is not accepted.
What we would like from applicants in this thread.
- Which fee amount the program actually asked you for this cycle.
- How long after your CASPA application was verified the fee instructions arrived.
- Whether interview invites are going out on a rolling basis yet, and when yours arrived relative to your submission date.
