Hey Everyone,
Started my application on OTCAS. It is a lot! I have several of my essays done, and a decent amount of the the sections done, but i have some questions
1) Can I send over my transcripts before i submit my applications? If so, has anyone ever had a situation where you can only order the transcript online? I know I have to fax it and send over the OTCAS cover sheet, but do not know how to do that if I can only order a transcript online.
2) For certifications/license: Did you guys put stuff like CPR? Because that's all i really have...
3) Did you put in all of your previous/current jobs under experiences? I have added my volunteer hours, internships, jobs etc.. But not sure if i should add all of my jobs. They are all about working with seniors and children with disabilities. But i am not sure if they will see my resume anyway.
4) Some of my schools want a specific essay, which is pretty annoying. But did you also submit your personal statement with another essay so they have both? One school asks me a specific question and personal statement and another does not. Have you ever send both just so they can read both?
5) Two schools require me to take Developmental Psy since i took it 6 years ago and they want it within 5. So I am taking it this Fall. Another schools requires Kinesiology and another General Bio. I plan on taking Kinesiology in January in case I get in, I will have it done but the Bio I plan on waiting. When i am adding future classes, should i just put Bio in Spring 2018? For the Psy class i am retaking, i already got an A on it, so will other schools care/wonder why i am retaking it?
I think thats it... back to OTCAS!
Thanks!
