Applying to: Georgia Southern, UNE, USAHS(Austin), NAU (my reach school), Tufts(Boston and Arizona), North Central College, Hunter College
Degree: Public Health Clinical Health Sciences - Pre-Physical Therapy
cGPA: 3.43
pGPA: 3.3
post-baccGPA: 4.0
Observation hours: 2200 in outpatient high level sports clinic, 16 in neuro clinic, 5 in specialty ALS clinic (trying to get some inpatient/peds rn too)
LOR: 3 PTs, 1 OT/Supervisor, 1 Chemistry Professor (I have an awesome relationship with the PTs I work with/my supervisor)
GRE: 155V, 148Q, 3.5AW (I didn't prepare at all the first time - I am re-taking it this weekend so wish me luck!)
Experiences/Extracurriculars: Worked at a COVID-19 Testing site on and off for 6 months during the pandemic, 30 hours volunteering @ special Olympics and a couple other local organizations working with homeless, Deans list for 3 terms, Student athlete academic award, member of the student athlete leadership committee, Supervisor at a previous job, worked as a PT Aide for 1.5 years, about to start a new job as admin staff at a children's hospital dealing with disabilities etc.
Things to note: I have had a super chaotic academic career! I worked an array of jobs my entire way through school which also playing soccer for the first two years. During my academic career I have attended/taken classes at 4 different schools just due to extenuating circumstances. One of the schools announced they were shutting down for good at the end of the term only one month before COVID hit/everything shut down which forced me to transfer again. I worked full time and went to school full time and have had to pay for my own schooling and I struggled to keep up academically the last couple years due to working so much (hence the lower GPA.) I am super excited to apply, I am very clear that this is what I am supposed to be doing even if the loan to income ROI isn't great 🙂 If you have advice for the essays/how to bolster my application let me know. This is my first time applying and I am just trying to get a gauge of how likely I am to get in. I feel like overall I am okay but my stats are on the lower end and my last 40-60 credits were probably my lowest grade wise, which is why I am feeling nervous!
