Hi all! I plan on applying for fall 2021 before the priority deadline (in 2 weeks, yikes) just putting some final touches on my resume. I'm just concerned about my GPA and experience as I do not have much experience within the healthcare field. 

As far as healthcare(ish) experience/volunteer hours that I do have, here they are: 

got emt-b certification but due to acl reconstruction had to push off employment and then ZERO local agencies were hiring new EMT's 

medical reserve corps member of my local county 

Other volunteer: americorps program tutoring in Memphis, TN for a whole school year (currently doing this) 

 

Undergrad degree is Biochemistry with a minor in math and I finished with exactly a 3.0 GPA and was also a student-athlete all 4 years 

A&P I: B 

A&P II: A- 

Stats: A- 

Chem: B 

Nutrition: Lecture A- and Lab A 

Micro: B-

English: not sure if the one I have counts 

Dev Psych: currently taking

at my college it was titled "Composition: Habit of Writing". I have no idea if they are accepting this as the English requirement or not because they have not done my transcript evaluation yet.

Oh okay, how long has it been since you received your acceptance.?I know that the transcript evaluation is supposed to take about 2-3 weeks. I'm wondering if I should quickly purchase an english course and get started because I have no clue if mine will be accepted and everything needs to be done before jan 15th. 

 

your course sounds fine though, I think it will be accepted

I was thinking to do this too but not sure who in the department to ask specifically about this. Ashley said she couldn't give me an answer.

 

and wow I'm shocked they haven't given you an evaluation yet considering you received an acceptance more than 2 weeks ago
