Hey all -
So I will just be direct and say that I've been rejected by the HCP program at HES. I was told that my science GPA was too low though other parts of my application were solid. Therefore, I am strongly considering taking a few classes this fall at Harvard and then reapply for entrance in the spring (provided acceptance, I can apply those courses taken as an informal post-baccer into the HC program requirements). What do you all think of this idea?
However, two important items would first have to fall into place in a relatively soon manner...
1) Housing:
I am seeking an apartment or house in the Cambridge or surrounding area, close to one of the Harvard bus lines . I'm preferably looking for roommates enrolling or have been enrolled in the HCP, a young working professional, or a traditional university student. I'm very easy to get along with, and am a very kind-hearted and happy person
Ofcourse I'm also planning on keeping busy with working and taking night classes at Harvard but would also like to dedicate some amount of free time for relaxing and outings. I do not smoke and prefer non-smokers, or smoking outside. Also prefer someone who keeps common living space clean.
2) Job:
I am seeking a job in the Boston/Cambridge/surrounding area. I would prefer a part-time position in research (preference in clinical research as a CRA or CTA) or in a healthcare setting, such as a medical assistant, surgical assistant, or along those lines. I've recieved on the job training as a medical assistant and worked for a couple of months in that role until I was laid off due to budget cuts.
Craigslist has been very resourceful for both of these purposes but I thought I'd just throw it out there to see if anyone knows of anyone who knows of someone who can potentially set me up with a job interview and/or shelter - thanks so much in advance and I hope that, if everything falls into place, I can meet many of you come the fall!
