this girl is a great person, she helped me realize that it's very possible to get all the requirements done in a reasonable time and get accepted in-state. :)
aww! this makes me so happy! congratulations & thank you for your kind words😊
Thank you SO much for this video, i'm so glad I found your youtube channel! You are truly inspiring.
thank you for watching!! so glad this was helpful💛😊
This was soooo helpful hearing about the sciences! Some of them have been rough (microbio lol- one of the schools in my state requires it) and it worries me so much.
you got this!!! keep pushing through 🥰
Happy Saturday night Kristen and I just wanted to say that your vlogs is amazing I loved your channel and you are amazing Supporter and I'm proud of you
thank you so much!
@@kristennicolosi of course
hi kristen! you probably don’t remember me, i went to the same gym as you when i was in middle school. (i stopped gymnastics at level 4 lol), seeing where you are now is so inspiring, best of luck finishing PT school! 💕💓
awww hi small world😊💛 thank you so much this is so sweet!! are you studying PT as well?
Your video was very insightful! Thanks for the content! When did you start your shadowing hours?
you’re welcome!!! i started summer after freshmen year of college
thank you sm for this video! super helpful :)
i have a question -- since the PTCAS application opens in june, and people usually apply that summer of their junior year, is it possible to document in advance the observation hours you'll be getting? besides the minimum hour requirement, would you be able to reflect those additional hours (for example you get a job as a PT aide in your senior year) on your PTCAS application as a junior?
you’re so welcome!! you can “update” your application after you submit it i believe. you do need to get the hours verified, either through a signed form that you scan onto PTCAS or through an e-signature from the PT you shadowed. so unfortunately I don’t think theres a way to put them in without having them verified. you can always reach out to PTCAS directly to ask & if anything talk about these other experiences in your interview if you can’t include them in your actual application. best of luck to you!😊💗
Thank you for making these videos! How do you see the average applicant for specific schools for pt? Thanks!
just google (XYZ university) PTCAS! it will take you to a page with details about the program and average stats. look under the tab "admission requirements" once you get to the certain schools page on PTCAS.
also sometimes more information of "accepted class stats" is on the actual university website. hope this helps!! thanks for watching
hi! I love your videos!
I have a question; you said that people usually would apply on June before senior year. But I see DPT programs requiring Bachelor's degree as their requirement. Would that matter that I'm a junior and haven't got my degree yet? or is it only wanting to see that I am going to finish my bachelor's degree?
I;m sorry for the messy questions but I hope you understand!
hi thank you for supporting my channel! it is typical to apply summer before senior year, and you just state your intent to finish your Bachelors that year. Upon program acceptance, your letter will likely say it is contingent upon proof of graduation and final transcripts being sent in once you graduate. Hope this helps!
@@kristennicolosi that helped greatly!!!! Thank you so much!
Then about prerequisite courses, do they have to be done taking before application? Or like graduation would i be able to certify later that i took it??
@@yeyounglee4769 Each school is different as to the number of pre-recs that can be in progress! But they expect you to have a majority completed
@@kristennicolosi Ohhh I see! That's wonderful. Thank you so much. I really appreciate all your videos; they're amazing! I hope I can be an amazing PT like you are. Thank you!!
I'm also a ABT (applied behavior tech) do I add that under "employment or extracurricular activities" in ptcas?
i would say employment!
was the study abroad opportunity offered by your university or how did you find out about it?
yes both were through UGA! ask your advisor good ones that fit your major. the Taiwan athletic training maymester is run by UGA, but people from any school can apply so you can look into that as well if you’re interested. hope this helps!😊
How did you document all your hours prior to putting them into ptcas? Ill be shadowing a PT for the first time so I want to be sure I'm prepared
most clinics have a sheet they keep for you to fill out! or you can just log it yourself in an excel document and the PT that you shadowed will have to verify that you shadowed them by e-signing
Watching this as I reapply for the 2023-2024
sending good vibes your way! any program would be lucky to have you
