I know that many of you have questions and concerns about how COVID-19 will impact the upcoming 2021 application cycles. You can follow the changes on the individual professional school websites, and also on the website created by the National Association of Advisors for the Health Professions: https://www.naahp.org/covid-19hplinks/home.
