This is my third year applying for schools, and I've gotten much farther than I ever have! I applied to as many schools as I could afford. In my time off, I've taken an online medical terminology course and continued to get as many experience hours as possible. I've been working as an aide 2 days a week since May. Acceptance/Denial season can be rough, but remember to keep at it! Persistence and hard work do pay off, eventually Good Luck All!

Congrats on your interview with GFU! When is it?

It's this weekend 2/11! I'm so nervous but excited! I've been practicing for answers to typical questions (greatest weakness, a time you displayed leadership, why are you a good fit for our program, etc).
