University of Illinois - Chicago Prospective (or Current) Students

[emjayco]

Hello all!

I have been accepted to UIC for the PhD in Community Health Services and likely will be attending. Has anyone else been accepting, thinking of attending, or is currently attending? I am going to visit this weekend and speak with people but thought I would start a strand to get to know people or see what their experiences here have been. Plus when we get down to it, things like what part of town are you going to live in, etc.

My background, MS in Counseling Psychology, 5 years of vocational rehabilitation counseling and program coordination as well as three years of sexual assault advocacy. Area of interest and focus will be long-term health impacts of reporting sexual violence and how to create better training and prevention initiatives.

Hope to hear from some people!
