  1. I am a recent graduate from the University of Michigan. I have a BA in Psychology and minored in Spanish. My first 1.5 years of college, I attended Western Michigan University where I studied Biomedical Sciences and had a 3.81 GPA. While I was there, I volunteered at the local hospital as a Patient Representative, supporting patients in their time of need (so, some form of social work experience). I transferred to UMich halfway through my sophomore year and ended up doing pretty poorly in my biology courses there. I ended up changing my major to just Psychology, and my cumulative GPA from UM was, sadly, a 3.21. I was in an a cappella group throughout my time at UM and did research with the Strong Military Families Program and the Emotion & Self Control Lab. I still volunteer as a research assistant and have also worked at the School of Social Work in the department of Continuing Ed here. I have a lot of customer service (retail, restaurant, etc..) experience and have always worked a part-time job on top of school. I also studied abroad in Spain, which is something I discussed in my personal statement. I have absolutely no idea what the acceptance rate is at Boston University, but it is my dream school. If anyone knows anything about how competitive it is to get into their MSW program, please chance me.
