Hi guys! I am new here on the forum and I've been reading past posts for a while now.
I am currently a senior in college working on my BA and didn't know that I wanted to be an OT till I was already in my BA program. I am crossing my fingers that I get into CSUDH, but I'm scared I might not get in! I'm going to apply this summer.
-Communication Studies major
-My current overall GPA is 3.6, which will go up to probably 3.7 by the time I graduate.
-My Major GPA however is 3.8 & may go up to a 3.9.
-Haven't taken GRE yet
-So far, I have 3 A's and one B in my prerequisites and am aiming for 2 more A's
-120 hours of volunteer work at nursing home. (Aiming for more though)
-Actively involved on campus with lots of philanthropic work through my sorority and lots of experience working in groups and with people face to face. Interpersonal communication experience because of my past job in sales and because of my 2 year experience in speech and debate.
Honestly, I'm scared I won't get in.
1. Do they look at your Major GPA or only your overall GPA?
2. Am I so far in okay standing? I know not all factors are still in progress, but still
3. What can I do to improve my chances? I noticed that for every A I get, my GPA only goes up .2 !!!
Any advice would help guys, I just want to not have to apply more than once and give it my all the first time around.
Thanks guys!!!
