I’d say a year is pretty accelerated even though it’s full time. I just hope they will accept a bachelor’s that was aquited though CLEP. This is an international school, specifically the University of London, so I don’t know how that works. They say that any degree from an accrideted and recognized university should suffice but I worry they mean one that was done the traditional way.
I’m too afraid to contact them and ask lest I hear no, they won’t accept it.
Also I’m thinking about taking a
certification course from the extension school at UC Berkely. But don’t know if it’s worth it. Sure it’s UC Berkeley but it’s then extension school which Im told is not the same thing.
This biggest reason for this is they apparently offer internship either though thier hospitals or more importantly Stanford. I looked up the internship program though at Stanford and was only able to find it for high school grads or high school seniors. I don’t think that applies to me as I’d be almost old enough to be thier dad.
The curious thing is though this program is intended for post baccalaureate students who may be well into thier career, I doubt there would be many teens and early twenties that fall into that category, so maybe they know something I don’t and there really is a chance at an internship at Stanford for me.
There is also a course from Johns Hopkins for clinical trials but it’s 2 years long and requires a bachelors with at least 2 years of experience in the research field vs UC Berkeley which has no prerequisites and takes only nine months.
My intent was to work on this certificate course from UC Berkeley while. working on my classes at Thomas Edison and finish both this certification course and my bachelor’s at about the same time then quickly apply for the internship. All the while working in the pathology lab at the hospital gaining real world experience and those very important letters of recommendation from my superiors.
