Any recent candidates, please share your experience and understanding of the qualification criteria. Also, I have heard that if selected one can be assigned to any center outside of Chicago as well. Do you know if they assign you to a campus (like Chicago, Peoria or Rockford) after your first 4 years of undergrad or does it happen at the time of admission to the GPPA program?
Really appreciate your insight. Thanks.
