Currently choosing between two programs, one of which starts immediately (during my last spring semester in undergrad actually), and the other leaves a 7-month gap time, starting the following January. Just wondering what kind of jobs students get or what people may do in waiting out an awkward...

Has anyone been accepted to Thomas Jefferson or heard back for starting this upcoming summer/fall?

I'm wondering how students that have experienced/are going through a 2.5 year PT school program feel about the duration. Is it manageable? Do you feel rushed/ extremely stressed? (I know PT school will be stressful no matter what) Do you like the quarter system?
