FAQ

Question: Hi! If I end up not applying this Fall, am I allowed to apply in the Spring semester of 2022? If not, would applying in Fall 2022 as a sophomore hinder the probability of acceptance to PER? Thanks! - Anonymous

We typically only recruit in the fall semester. Being a sophomore would not change your chances of getting accepted.
