Hi there!
I'm applying to OT schools for this cycle and would love some feedback.
I'm not a traditional college student. I graduated with my B.S. in sports management back in 2018 and went back to school to finish my pre-reqs for PT school. (decided to do OT instead).
My UG GPA is 3.67
My pre-req GPA is 3.2
I've worked at 3 different clinics (mostly front office) helping verify insurance, schedule, check-in patients. I would also help out in the back both PT's and OT's when possible.
I have about 200 volunteer hours combined with the places I've worked and a hospital I volunteered at. However, I feel that I don't have much accomplished to make me stand out as an ideal candidate for schools. I have plenty of work experience but no certifications, was not part of any organizations etc.
The schools I applied to:
Boston University
UF
Nova
St. Augustine
Barry
I got rejected from BU and I'm still waiting to hear back from the rest. I was really hoping I'd get accepted to BU. Feel pretty bummed about it. (I'm scared other schools won't take me)
Any advice?
