I really just decided to go for the MHA. I'm graduating this May. I've been pre-med so my GPA has been gouged by difficult science classes but I'm expecting to graduate with BS Neuroscience 3.17 gpa. I haven't taken accounting(would probably take during summer) but I am taking economics this semester. I also haven't taken the GRE yet or asked anyone for letters.
I am looking at schools that have later deadlines like: GWU (July), USF (May) etc... But I realize that if I put in the app before the deadline it will still be pretty late and the schools might have filled their seats already.
Should I just wait to apply after graduation? I'm afraid I won't be able to get academic LORs after I leave school. Also when does SOPHAS open? And if I do decide to wait until next year, when should I start applying? Any advice about the application process would be great. I'm making kind of a jump from pre-med here and I'm still a little confused.
Also, what counts as work experience? Should it be more healthcare/clinical or more business? Can volunteering or doing an internship in a hospital without being paid still count?
Please and thank you.
