"As an OT student, I expect things to be busy and have a lot of collaboration and learning. Each day will have its challenges. I will have to balance coursework, student organizations, and my intrapersonal relationships. Sometimes I may be in class for over 8 hours a day. Or I will be working in clinical for 12 hours. Yet, I also see it as working with my cohort to learn together and leaning on my family to support me when I need help."
