Hey! Has anyone heard anything from NYU yet? I checked some forums from the past years and some people heard back early February. Good luck to everyone!

Congrats! When did you apply? Would you mind sharing your stats?

Thank you! I applied on the deadline date.

Sure!

Overall GPA: 3.76
Prereq GPA: Just under 4.00
Major: Psychology
Hours: At the time of my app - 60 in hands, 40 in outpatient rehab at a hospital (I started my hours in June 2020...super late...since I've only known I've wanted to do OT for about a year). I also had 150 hours in orthotics and prosthetics, which I think helped.
Extracurriculars: Camp Kesem, Ronald McDonald House, volunteer tutoring
Internships: I had quite a few non-profit and psych-related internships throughout college that were not OT-related.
Work: psychiatric research assistant, babysitting

I'm not sure if I'll be attending yet! The program is so pricey so I'm not sure if it's the best financial decision for me. Are you attending? :)

I don't think I will be but nothing certain yet. It really is so expensive plus nyc is super expensive too, I just feel my money is better used elsewhere lol. But I'm waiting to get in contact with current students like they mentioned in the email before making a final decision!
