Schools I plan on applying to: Seton Hall University, SUNY Downstate.

Average salary in the Southeast
Posting for my wife who is an OT (she doesn't have an account here). Kind of doing a gut check to see if her salary makes sense for her level of experience. She works 0.9 FTE and makes $80k ($43.50/hr). Has great benefits - great 403b match and high amounts of PDO.
10+ years experience in outpatient peds.
Having some concerns at work with time, etc. Curious as to if she starts looking elsewhere, what are the odds she finds anything similar. (Source: Student Doctor Network)

Csudh msot 2023
Hello everyone! I thought I would create a thread for applicants or those interested in CSUDH's MSOT program, considering applications open in about a month. We can share questions and updates here!
Does anyone know if CSUDH offers housing for graduate students? Also, the MSOT application process isn't rolling, correct? I remember being informed that CalSateApply requires 4 supplementary questions to answer in place of a personal statement, but I also read somewhere on their FAQ page that...

Out of state interviews
This might be a random question but I always see people apply to out of state schools. If you get an interview at a school hats out of state is it like on zoom or something or do you actually have to go there? (Source: Student Doctor Network)

Realistic OT Salary in CA
Hello, are there any OTs or new grads that are comfortable with sharing their starting OT salary working in California? I know there are websites like otsalary.com, indeed, ZipRecruiter, that shares some data (states starting 80-85k) but I was a little shocked when I spoke with a couple of OT friends who live in orange county and most said that starting pay was around 60-70k . I understand that it varies by what setting and location but I am just curious and want to know what to expect as a...

Drake University Interview- Need help!
Hey friends,
I am interviewing at Drake College on a whim, somewhat last minute. We just found out my husband got accepted into medical school at DMU (which is excellent!), and Drake is right next to it... So we are really trying our best to stay together. That being said- If you've interviewed with Drake before, can you describe how the interview went? What were some example questions they asked?
Thanks to all in advance. (Source: Student Doctor Network)

University of Pacific (Sacramento) OTD program experience
Hi everyone!
I haven’t seen much posts about UOP’s OTD program so I figured to make a thread.
I know UOP just began their first cohort this past January and I wanted to get some insight from current students in the program.
How do you all like it so far? I am looking to apply for the school and would like to know more about the resources they offer. You can find so much from their website so any more info would help.
Thank you! (Source: Student Doctor Network)

Winston Salem State University 2021-2022
Hi guys! I was placed on the waitlist for WSSU on March 7. They said in the email they won't release any details about the waitlist and I will be notified by email if I am offered a spot. I was wondering if anyone was accepted to WSSU or got off the waitlist? They're my top choice and I have to send another program a deposit soon so I am getting nervous.

Waitlist 2022
Hey all!
I know every year is different for applications. I made it to the waitlist on my top choice school. I do not want to give specifics, but has anyone ever been chosen from a waitlist before? I need words of encouragement. . I know this is a vague question. Is there any advice on things I can do to possibly get off of a waitlist? (Source: Student Doctor Network)

Accreditation Concerns
Hello future OTs. I have applied to multiple OT schools. 3 masters programs that are already accredited and 3 doctorate programs that are currently in candidacy status. I have came to the conclusion to go with one of the doctorate programs since I was waitlisted in the masters programs. I also like this specific program because of its nice location and that I will end up with a higher degree someday. My main concern however is what if this program does not reach full accreditation? I highly...
