Questions were addressed in Curriculum segement recording 00:43:57 Prospective Student 2: If we have an education gap, how should we approach the resume? 00:44:29 KARY WOODRUFF: You can identify any work- or volunteer-related experiences in which you have engaged 00:44:42 Prospective Student 2: Thank you! 00:45:53 Prospective Studnet 3: Do you allow your students to defer a year if they get accepted to the program? 00:46:11 KARY WOODRUFF: It is not typical but there are instances when this happens 00:46:28 Prospective Studnet 3: Okay, thank you! 00:46:57 Prospective Student 2: If you aren't requiring GRE scores, how does that effect the rest of the application? If you have ed gaps, for instance. 00:47:03 Kristine Jordan: In 2020, we are providing deferments due to COVID-19, so as Dr. Woodruff mentioned, it depends on the circumstances. 00:50:01 Prospective Student 1: I’m still at least 4 semesters away (needing prereqs) - is there a chance the GRE will be required? 00:51:23 KARY WOODRUFF: Prospective Student 1, we will still be focusing on a diversity of experiences and skills - we focus on leadership skills that may come from a non-educational context; we focus on nutrition-related experiences as well, which may also come from a non-academic setting. So I certainly think there is plenty of room to highlight skills and strengths that do not come from an academic setting :) 00:51:56 Prospective Student 2: Thank you! 00:53:56 Prospective Student 1: Thank you 00:56:41 Prospective Student 2: Is there anywhere we can go for application help either at the school generally, or within the department specifically? 00:58:01 CARISSE WINEGAR: Hey Prospective Student 1, we have created at Apply Yourself, step-by-by guide that is super helpful! https://health.utahhealth.acsitefactory.com/sites/g/files/zrelqx131/files/media/documents/2020/ay-instructions%20updated%20noGRE_1.pdf 00:58:28 CARISSE WINEGAR: You can also reach out to me, the Administrative Assistant, with help on the application 00:58:33 KARY WOODRUFF: Prospective Student 1 it would depend upon the question - much of the application comes from the University itself and would best be addressed with the registrar's office; if it is specific to our program you can contact us. 01:01:48 Prospective Student 1: are scholarships based on financial situation? 01:05:03 Prospective Student 2: For the Biochem and Advanced Nutrition requirements, if they are over 5 years old, you are required to take them again. When will we know when these will be available again? I can't find either in the catalog right now. 01:08:09 KARY WOODRUFF: Prospective Student 1 I would recommend checking the course catalog for the spring 01:08:24 KARY WOODRUFF: Biochemistry is not offered through our department 01:11:11 KARY WOODRUFF: I'll stay too! 01:20:03 Prospective Student 1: Thanks, everyone.
