BS in General Kinesiology in progress at Cal Poly Pomona
cGPA: 3.41 (messed up a lot in community college but picked up my GPA)
pGPA: 3.67 (really depends on which school)
GRE: 159Q, 149V, 4.0AWA
Observations (weakest but will be working on it once winter break kicks in, I work at a pharmacy to pay when I'm not studying): 163 hours 2 settings
Extra: Motor development clinic volunteering, Adaptive outdoor adventure programs, VP for Pre-PT/OT and helped facilitate the first one on campus, Mind and heart stress lab, Riverside Community College Honors Society
Hobbies: Rock climbing, CrossFit, Breakdancing
LORs: 1 PT director, 1 Anatomy and physiology professor, 1 Biomechanics professor who used to hold a DPT, 1 from pharmacy manager
Academic achievements: Dean's and President's Honor List every semester after I started to pick up my GPA
Licenses: State Certified Pharmacy Technician through California, National Registered Pharmacy Technician (expired because its not necessary)

Things that may make me stand out: Pharmacy Technician for almost 6 years (so patient care) and I've had my essays looked over by countless people who are finished with grad schools and a professional writer.

Let me know if I'm missing anything, first time writing this. I know my observational hours may not compare to the thousands I see here but I'll be working on it more after this semester.

Thank you, this is very helpful! And congrats!!
 
Congrats to everyone that got in :claps:! I submitted my PTCAS application 11/19 and was verified quickly afterwards. However, I still haven't received a supplemental yet. Anyone in the same boat?

I got waitlisted as well today. I was kind of annoyed that in the email they said not to ask about your rank on the waitlist as they don't give out information during the admissions processes 🤔
 
Who ever got the acceptance letters had only two weeks to pay the $1000 deposit, and I think that two weeks just ended. I’m sure a few people didn’t do it opened up some spots in the cohort and also the waitlist

Hi all,

Seems like a lot of us are waitlisted. Just wondering if anyone knows any details about their waitlist process? A little confused because they gave very few details in the email.

Did you happen to anything specific prior to getting off the waitlist? An email or anything?

Did I happen to do anything specific? No, I listened to instructions, they said no letter of intent, email etc. So I simply waited and got in! I think I will give up my spot though for another program.
