#DPTSTUDENT CHAT TOPIC FOR WEDNESDAY, MAY 29, 2013: FORCED UNEMPLOYMENT AFTER GRADUATION

After three years of really hard work, you finally graduate and hope to start working right away, right? Wrong. For most new DPT grads, you have to wait until the boards are offered at the end of July after graduating in the middle of May. Two months of off time may sound nice…until you look at the daunting number on your student loans statement. Mary wrote a great post about this subject and you can read more about it here.

Is there anything we can do about it or is it one of those situations we just have to deal with? Do you think we should be offered a temporary license while we wait? What are the pros and cons of that?

Let’s talk about it this Wednesday at 9pm EST.
