Extra-Curric/Volunteer: I've worked for the past six years in education. My first year out of undergrad I was an Americorps member with City Year in DC where I volunteered full-time in an elementary special ed. classroom. I then spent a couple years as a high school special education teacher with a Teach For America like program in DC. I now work for an ed non-profit writing standardized test questions for students with severe cognitive disabilities.
Applied: VCU, Temple, Thomas Jefferson, BU
Acceptances: VCU
Rejections: N/A
Still waiting to hear back from the other three schools. I'm a bit worried about TJ and Temple since they are rolling and I only completed my applications in late December. I have in-state in VA so VCU is probably where I will go but am anxious to hear from the other schools all the same.
Good luck everyone!
Hey, nice to see another City Year alum going into OT! I did City Year in New Orleans Good luck!
