Hi! I was just accepted to the April 2020 cohort and confirmed that I will be attending! Anyone else out there?! I know the cohorts are small but looking to make some potential connections in advance. My first bachelors was in social work back in 2009!

@sjean31 Thank you! I just found out I was accepted ! I know right now everything is online, but do you know normally how many days you have to be on campus and what hospitals you do your clinicals?

I don’t really know what normal looks like because our cohort started during the pandemic and our first term was fully online and our second term will be online with one day a week at our clinical site. Right now we are very busy with the materials from all the courses. Sorry it took me so long to reply, it is truly a demanding program so be ready for that! Good luck!

Hey! Unfortunately you can’t pick a day for clinical, the cohort will have a specified day in the week. The online courses are manageable with a job. It’s only discussion boards and papers for those courses. No live classes for that.  My cohort has one live class per term and it’s online due to Covid-19. We meet once or twice a week. I have no idea how the program looks like without COVID-19 restrictions.  Hope this helps a little!

Hi guys! I am currently a senior in college and have had my eye on this program for about two years now. Would any of you mind sharing your stats (GPA, test scores, etc) especially if you’ve been accepted? I just want to have an idea of what I should be aiming for when I am applying. I’m currently finishing up the rest of my prerequisites.
