Sophie Hose is from Hanover , Germany and is currently a student at Life University studying four different programs : she just finished her Bachelor of Science in Exercise Science and is currently enrolled in the Bachelor of Science in Interdisciplinary Studies , Master of Science in Sport Health Science and the Doctor of Chiropractic program .
Before coming to Life U , Hose originally wanted to go to medical school .
“ What I have come to realize at Life U is that it is important to take every opportunity you are presented with and connect with other people .”
“ Chiropractic is not well known in Germany , so we didn ’ t know it existed for a while , but when I was eight , I had quite a lot of injuries as a gymnast , and my parents took me to a chiropractor for the first time ,” she shared . “ I ’ ve seen him ever since , and when I got a little bit older , he asked me what my plans for the future were . He gave me a flier about Life University , and I started looking into it more seriously .”
Hose did a few internships in Germany and Italy with different chiropractors and fell in love with the profession . “ I honestly didn ’ t look at any other schools . It was clear that I was going to be at Life University or nothing else from the beginning .”
In September 2018 . Hose came to Life U and began her Bachelor of Science in Exercise Science . “ I finished that in June 2020 , but I had already started the D . C . program in January 2020 .” The reason she came to Life U was to pursue Chiropractic , and according to her , the other degrees were stepping stones to get there .
In addition to pursuing multiple degrees at Life U , Hose has also been heavily involved on campus . “ In the past , I used to be a Resident Assistant at the Commons , and I used to be a mentor at the peer STARS mentoring program ,” she explained . “ In my second quarter at Life U , I started working as a tutor for Biology and Chemistry for the undergrad program , and now I am also giving SI sessions for Radiology .” Hose is also the president for the Multicultural Student Association , the secretary for the Functional Neurology Club and an active member in the Applied Kinesiology Club , Neuro Emotional Technique Club , Sports Chiropractic Club and Orthopedic Club . “ On top of all that , I also shadow at the NeuroLIFE Institute once a week .”
Hose will be graduating from the D . C . program in July 2023 . “ I am not sure where I will be settling down after graduation , but
“ Chiropractic is not well known in Germany , so we didn ’ t know it existed for a while , but when I was eight , I had quite a lot of injuries as a gymnast , and my parents took me to a chiropractor for the first time .”
I am 95 percent sure it won ’ t be in the U . S . because Europe feels like home to me . I am just not entirely sure what country yet ; Germany would be the easy choice , but France is my second home and my first choice .”
Hose advised other students , “ What I have come to realize at Life U is that it is important to take every opportunity you are presented with and connect with other people . I think everyone has some wisdom to share with you , and you should take advantage of that .”
