“I was definitely feeling restart anxiety; I had no idea how to even get started when I decided to go back to school after about 4 years away. But I was confident that OT was a field I wanted to go into, so I started small by asking Maria for information about the program, then met on campus for a tour, then applied. I took baby steps, and the next thing I knew, I was back in class. All the professors have been passionate, knowledgeable, and ready to help for any question big or small. My classmates are awesome, and they all bring their own unique experiences to the table so no one is ever left out of any conversation. Going back to school means I found out what I really want to do with my life, and I’m making the strides to get it done! The nerves are worth it for the life I’m making for myself.” – Amy Gordon, OTA Student
