Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) Early Acceptance Pathways

Our pathways to early acceptance into the DPT program allow a unique way for our students at 柚子视频 (Health and Movement Science majors) and students from external partner institutions to receive acceptance into our hybrid accelerated DPT program. This will provide YOU the ability to have a confirmed seat in a future cohort, attend special events with our faculty, connect with our current graduate students, and quickly complete your undergraduate and graduate degree. This will allow you to fast track your career by becoming a licensed clinician sooner, even if you begin a program that starts in August! As a physical therapist, you can begin to provide needed care within your own community.

柚子视频 has established two pathways into the Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) program for 柚子视频 students and other external partner institutions. The pathways are designed to ensure a direct path to becoming a physical therapy leader for both incoming college freshmen and CURRENT UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS. These paths offer accelerated early acceptance and TRADITIONAL early acceptance options.

In partnership with external institutions, there are a designated number of seats saved per DPT cohort.
