Please chance me

<p>Hi,</p>

<p>I will be a senior this fall at a CSU and I am planning on applying to several MSW programs. My major is psychology and my cumulative gpa is a 3.4, while my psychology major is a 3.9. I joined the psychology club (my attendance has been spotty), and I have participated in several events and fundraisers put on by the club. I worked at a psychiatric hospital (as a food service worker providing meals to both inpatients and outpatients) but I had to quit when I transferred from the community college to the university. I have not yet taken the GRE but I think I will do fine except for the math portion. My goal is to work for the Dept. of Veteran's Affairs as an LCSW.</p>

<p>Here are my choices:</p>

<p>(not in any particular order except for USC)</p>

<p>--USC (first choice because of their program geared specifically toward the military/veterans)
--University of Washington
--UCLA
--CSU Long Beach
--CSU Sacramento
--SFSU
--Humboldt State</p>

<p>I really appreciate any insight. I know that I need more volunteer work. I had planned on doing a lot this semester but I had to take the whole semester off to have a major surgery that took five weeks to recover from.</p>

<p>Thank you</p>

<p>You have an excellent shot at all of those schools as long as you write a good essay.</p>
