One-on-one PA school coaching, from actual PAs
Every service here is one-on-one with a practicing or licensed PA who has been on the other side of an admissions decision. Answer two quick questions and we'll show you exactly where to start, the same way we would on a coaching call.

1 of 2 — Where are you in the process?
If this sounds like you
“I read four Reddit threads and three blog posts and I'm more confused now than when I started.”
You've been Googling for weeks. Every PA forum, every YouTube channel, every Reddit thread. And the advice contradicts itself: apply broadly, apply narrowly. Retake the class, don't retake the class. You're smart. You're not the problem. The problem is you're getting strategy from people who haven't sat on the other side of an admissions decision.
Thirty minutes with someone who has will save you months of going in circles. A full cycle with that person in your corner can save you the thing you can't buy back: a year.
Who you're working with
The PA Platform was founded in 2014 by Savanna Perry, PA-C, a practicing dermatology PA and the author of the PA school interview guide thousands of applicants have used. Since then we've coached pre-PA students through every version of this process: first-time applicants, reapplicants, career changers, low GPA comebacks.
Every coach on the team is a practicing or licensed PA. We've written the essays that got us in, sat in the interview rooms on both sides, and answered these exact questions across 250+ podcast episodes. You bring your specific situation. We bring what actually works.

The honest math
Look at what a cycle already costs you: CASPA fees run into the hundreds before you've added supplemental applications, transcripts, and interview travel. Most applicants spend well over a thousand dollars just to apply. And a cycle that doesn't work costs the one thing you can't buy back, a full year of your career.
That's the frame we'd ask you to use here. A $107 counseling session that stops you from applying to the wrong school list pays for itself the same week. And PA school itself is a six-figure investment in your career. Getting the application right the first time, with one team covering strategy, essays, and interviews, is the cheapest part of the entire journey.
What students say
“What changed wasn't my stats. It was how I told the story.”

The honest answers
Take the two-question quiz above and we'll tell you straight. Still not sure? Book the $107 counseling session. You'll leave with a written plan, and if a bigger service isn't the right fit for where you are, we'll say so.
Two 1:1 sessions with Savanna, four counseling sessions, 20,000 characters of essay editing, two mock interviews, lifetime Pre-PA Academy access, all three guide books, the online course bundle, and unlimited email support through your cycle. It's the whole application handled by one team that knows your story, and you can split the payment with Klarna at checkout.
Yes. Checkout offers Klarna on eligible purchases, so you can break a package into smaller payments instead of paying all at once.
Your portal account is created automatically. Sign in with the email you bought with, and everything lives in one place: essay submissions, booking codes for sessions, feedback, and your session notes.
Then buy just that thing. Plenty of students start with a single essay review or one mock interview. When you come back for more, returning clients get a discount, so starting small doesn't cost you anything later.
