What are my chances?

[ElaLii]

Hey guys, I'm applying to a Psy.D program in Fall 2016 but I want to know if my stats are good enough. If not what can I do to help my chances? I plan on taking my GRE's in the summer.

Overall GPA currently: 3.4
Psych GPA: 3.8
Lab experience: A year and a half by the time I apply.

I have a poster presentation in Spring 2016 for WPA. In addition, I will also be finished with my undergraduate thesis in Spring 2016. I'm a member of Psi Chi and two other honor socities. I've been on the Dean's list for Spring 2014, Fall 2014, and Spring 2015.

I have a minor in philosophy and have done study abroad. I'm also a statistics tutor at my university.

How important is getting clinical experience? Is my experience enough?
I've been volunteering for an online emotional support service for two years now. I'm looking to volunteer for CASA, to work with foster kids. I hold nursing assistant and medical assistant certifications but I'm not sure these are relevant.

I've been looking into these programs:
University of Hartford
Nova Southeastern University
Spalding University
Wright State University
Xavier University
La Salle University
Pacific University
Immaculata University
