Hi everyone,
I am going to graduate in May 2023. I am currently in the process of getting ready for the next cycle of OTCAS to open so I can start applying. I am wondering what y'all's opinions are on my stats and my likeliness of getting into OT school. For reference, I am applying to UTMB, UTW, TTCH, St Augustine, and ACU which are all in Texas.
Cum GPA: 3.17
Pre-req GPA: 3.5-3.7 depending on school
LOR: 1 from OT, 2 from professors, 1 from LVN I worked for, possibly another one
Extracurriculars/volunteer work: special needs VBS, VBS group leader, teaching kids with disabilities how to dance, RISE program which teaches students with disabilities life skills, PSUN at school, Best buddies (e-buddy and on-campus), a baseball league for kids with disabilities, a summer camp for people with special needs, student nurse association through school, and attended things such as Buddy Walk, Special Olympics bowling.
Work experience: CNA for 2 years
Observation hours: currently 70 hours as outpatient pediatrics, 30 at SNF, and going to start hours soon at hand therapy specialists. planning on having at least 150+ hours total at the time of application.
I am also looking for people to proofread my personal statement if anyone can help/ give feedback on anything I would really appreciate it!
