Misericordia/Pitt/Arcadia/Chatham

[jml1030]

I am looking for any opinions about the DPT programs at Misercordia, Univeristy of Pittsburgh, Arcadia, and Chatham (currernt or prospective students). I am in the process of applying to the 2013 classes of these universities and looking for some help to narrow down my options. I have found that financially Pitt and Chatham are better choices.

I'd really appreciate any thoughts...

I was accepted at Pitt and Arcadia. As far as the financial issue goes, Arcadia offered a scholarship, making it much cheaper than Pitt (even accounting for the 3rd year stipend at Pitt). I don't know how many scholarships they give out, but I know of one other person on this forum who also received a scholarship at Arcadia.

Yup, I paid it online about a couple weeks ago. I'm just waiting on Ohio University at this point (I should hear back by/on Feb 6) since I've heard from all the other schools. Arcadia is my clear #2 choice though.

Current 1st year at Chatham. The program is good, but Problem-Based Learning is no joke It is VERY time-consuming and you are responsible for learning the information on your own (which is the point of PBL...) If you're a very active learner who loves discussion, then Chatham could be a good choice for you.
