Hello Savannah and Devyn! I'm not quite sure about the waitlist or how many people are currently on it. I do, however, think that there will be quite a few people who will be declining their spots and...

Hey! I'm going to PA school too! I've been debating if I should do it after nursing or if I should decline my spot and go for a biology degree. I'm torn between the decision
