I have a Master's degree in Kinesiology, with a 3.9 GPA. Do any DPT schools use graduate GPA's, or are we judged solely from undergraduate work and pre-requisites? Any info would be AWESOME! :thumbup:

They look at all GPAs, not just undergrad. They also look at the more recent grades (like the "upperclassmen" GPA, which graduate work may fall into), so you should be golden.

As long as you did decently on the GRE and have PT observation experience, I think it'd be hard to argue with a 3.9 MS in Kinesiology.
 
agreed. i don't think you should have a problem even if your undergrad gpa is low

Thank you for your input. I've been a PTA for the last 4 years, so hopefully this will count towards observation.
