My daughter has applied to several competitive freshman entry 6 year DPT programs. Most programs have a deadline of Dec. 1 and aren’t evaluated until that date. A big part of her essays has been her work as a student athletic trainer at her high school.
Her school was the featured high school game on ESPNU last night and she was shown several times attending to injured players.
Should we try to have the clips added to her application or would that be superfluous/ trying too hard? Her EC’s, GPA, and test scores are all at or above what she needs to get in to the programs.
I would not send it. It sounds like she already has on her application and in her essay that she is a trainer for the team. A video showing her doing exactly what she said she was doing will not add anything. Admissions officers are swamped and are not looking for video confirmation of what is already clearly laid out in the application.
