Letter of Application

I'm guessing that for most of you (like me) one of the most important things on your mind write now is finishing up your letters of applications/essays for the programs to which you are applying. Over and over again we have heard that this is THE key piece in your application packet as it serves as the introduction to the selections committee. So it makes sense to spend a lot of time here. If you are concerned about things like your GRE scores, GPA, or even lack of community involvement - here is the place to show them that you ARE an excellent candidate from their program. Most internships do not want to hear just that you are "excited" to experience what they have available, although it is important to touch on why you are applying to this particular internship. They are most interested in how you are a good FIT for the program. What skills and traits do you have that will make you successful during their particular internship?

This is just the tip of the iceberg. Go to our homepage at http://allaccessinternships.com and select RESOURCES - APPLICATION TIPS and scroll down to the third section regarding the letter of application. Here you will find amazing tips that we have gathered from former interns and preceptors across the country. Trust me, you don't want to submit your applications without reading this first!

Best of luck to you all!

The light at the end of the tunnel

24 days and counting! I seem to be spending all of my time on applications - calculating my GPA over and over, proofreading every single letter of application, making sure I have everything together. Make sure you leave some time to do other things to ease the stress like read a good book, watch your favorite TV show, take a walk or group fitness class, spend time with friends, etc. In a few months it will all be worth it!
