Just so you know as of April 27th, 2021, the program is fully accredited!

OhTee Posted May 3, 2021 Report Share Posted May 3, 2021 Hey everyone! I was thinking about taking another semester to upgrade my GPA and get more volunteer/clinical experience, but I'm worried that this could look my application for the next cycle look bad, as I will be doing 5.5 years in university (4.5 in my program) if I do this. Would it matter as much to OT schools if I did another semester? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried pretty much every but I didn't get anything due to COVID :/. I have quite a bit of volunteer experience already, but I wanted to get more so it can help my application. From what I understand, it isn't necessarily where you have experience, but rather how that experience has influenced your choice to pursue a career as an OT. I will say that I have been stressed about this myself. I am thinking of leaving my current job as a support worker to pursue a contract job doing administrative work for low income populations. I could be very wrong since I have not applied to an OT program yet, but I believe working with different populations is a key factor to understanding different challenges.

Although this is true and it’s good to have experience with different populations, it’s not necessary. I was accepted to UofA and the only experience I have is within a mental health setting and with kids. You could pick up a volunteering position that can help u gain some experience outside of what you are doing now, but I don’t think it would be necessary to switch jobs Ot2022 and OT-InTheMaking-2020 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
