Has anyone applied to Towson's MOT program? What do they look for in a competitive applicant? Also, any insights on how the OTD program will vary from the MOT program?

Hello guys! I was wondering if anyone else has been accepted to Messiah College MOT program starting in July? I know we will be the first cohort in the program.
I got accepted to OT school under the provision I'd pass a pre-req class with a "B".
Long story short, I got a C, and got kicked. I was struggling with the class because a loved one had gotten critically ill, then passed away shortly after.
Should I submit the same Personal Statement? Should I...
