Salus Post-bacc Program Helps Student Pursue Dream of Becoming an Optometrist
When Kaylea Ellison, PBHS ‘22, received rejection letters from the optometry schools to which she had applied, she described it as “gut-wrenching.” But it also strengthened her resolve to find another path to achieve her goal of becoming an optometrist.
She then discovered that Salus University had a Post-baccalaureate in Health Sciences program, which meant her dreams of a future optometry career wouldn’t potentially get derailed.
After being accepted into and completing the Salus post-bacc program, Ellison is now back on her career path. She will start optometry school in the fall at the Pennsylvania College of Optometry at Salus.
