Admissions

DPT Program

The DPT Admissions Committee looks for evidence of emotional maturity, motivation, achievement, character, and academic excellence. A premium is placed on the breadth, depth and rigor of the academic program, life experiences, and clinical and research exposure.

The Department of Physical Therapy and Human Movement Sciences maintains the richest possible educational environment through the enrollment of a diverse student body, one that represents applicants from underrepresented populations, applicants with work experience, and applicants from the smallest to the largest of our nation's colleges and universities. Our department attracts faculty and students from all areas of the United States and from around the world.
