As titled, I didn't get accepted to any of my 3 schools. While the reality has still yet to set in (the last "you fail" letter came Saturday), I still want to go to graduate school for my MPH but am not really sure how to better my credentials so that for 2012 I can actually be happy with the mail I receive. Step 1 is to find a job in the field, but that's not going to be extremely easy. Obviously it won't hurt to retake the GRE and increase that score, but other than those 2 things, what can I really do? I'm not going back to take undergrad classes, and I'll only be able to take 1 course as a non-degree student (which I'm heavily contemplating). I am considering calling up the admissions office and asking them directly how I can enhance my position, but I honestly don't know who to talk to. Worst of all, I only have effectively August thru January to improve my credentials before I'll have to be resubmitting applications. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
