pre-physical therapy

Does anyone know of who can help out with doing mock interview? I have an interview with Ohio University DPT school in couple weeks and needed some help. Willing to pay too. Also if anyone has been accepted to Ohio University, does anyone remember what the questions were or like? Thanks!

I’m embarassed and disappointed in myself for having a handful of typos in my application that I can no longer change because I didn’t notice them until after I submitted my application. Luckily my essay is good but my experiences and achievement section is where the misspelling lies. I fear the...

Anyone else interview with NAU? If so, any idea on when we are supposed to hear back?

Hello, I am looking into applying to a new program and entering their class as they become a “candidate” for accreditation. Has anyone attended a school under these circumstances and how did it work when you graduated and tried to get licensed?

Hey guys, recent graduate and I got waitlisted at Marshall University for their physical therapy program and was wandering if anyone is a student of the program? If so how is it? What is your favorite thing about the program? What is your least or hardest class you’ve had? Any tips on excelling...

Hey everyone! I wanted to start a thread to see if anyone has heard anything back from SUNY Upstate. I interviewed two weeks ago and haven't heard back yet. I would love to know if people who interviewed earlier got decisions yet.

I have been admitted to my dream college, but I wasn't accepted into their physical therapy program. So right now I have a "Still Deciding" major. My admissions counselor said that I should look into Athletic Training as my major, since it is pretty similar to physical therapy. Can I still...

Hello everyone! I'm not sure if this post will get flagged or receive unnecessary hate but here goes. I am currently in the process of retaking some prerequisites, and getting more observation hours so that I can apply to a DPT program in the upcoming 2020-2021 cycle. I graduated from...

I'm on my second semester as a junior and I currently have: cGPA: 3.46 pGPA: 3.15 If I'm going to be honest, I wasn't passionate about becoming a PT until this semester and I haven't felt the motivation previously due to many family and personal complications getting in the way. I firmly...

I was just accepted into UNLV and now I am stressing over deciding what school to go to, as I was acepted into MUSC several weeks ago and put down a deposit. I feel like they are such different schools, but they both really interest me. I received a scholarship to UNLV which is a huge factor. I...

Hey guys! I'm getting ready to apply to schools this summer and the NSU Tampa hybrid program seems very interesting to me and is one of my top choices. I was just wondering how those who are attending this program or have attended this program feel about it, and whether or not you feel having...

CONGRATS to everyone that was accepted and is committed to Rutgers South's DPT Program! There were no FB pages that were made yet and past students created their own, sooo here ya go lol It'd be much easier to get to know each other or just get a feel of who'll be in our class and share info...

Hi everyone! I saw a similar thread for last year's applicants around this time for those who have heard back for interviews at Regis. I know that we can expect to hear from them within the next couple weeks... but the anxiety is killing me! Thought this would be a good place for us to all be...

Please help me I am really confused. I am into my junior year of college and I am still not sure which healthcare career I want to pursue. I worked as a pharmacy technician in retail and had a horrible boss who verbally assaulted me which contributed to me hating the experience. Also when I...

So I have a really tough road ahead. I graduated with a BS Kinesiology in 2012. cGPA: 2.68 But I retook some classes at a community college and got B’s (chems and physics) but gpa in community college is a 3.0. I then went to vocational school to become an X-ray tech and hated it the...

Hey guys! Just wanted to create a forum for those applying to USAHS for Spring 2019 (St. Augustine location)! I initially planned to apply for Fall 2018 but decided not to because my stats aren't competitive. My advisor (Juan) reached out last month & suggested that I apply for Spring 2019, so...

Hi everyone, so I am a little late to the DPT game... I decided I wanted to pursue DPT during my last semester of college. It took me 4 years of college to finally figure out what I want to do for the rest of my life. But I am really glad I finally did! With my mechanical engineering...

Is it Really possible? Becoming a DPT while serving in the National Guard.. First off, this is my very first post on SDN - I have realized how valuable some threads on here are to others! Hearing from those who have gone down the paths that others want to go down provides people with incredible...

Has anyone gotten their acceptance letter and made a decision? How long did they give you to decide? I was put on the waitlist so now just more waiting to see what will happen. Excited to hear something, but not exactly the verdict I was hoping for.

Hello Fellow members of MUSC DPT's Class of 2021! I was hoping to meet some of you at the open house. However, it was canceled due to Charleston freezing over. I don't know how you all are planning on finding roommates or housing but I am definitely looking for both. I thought this would be a...

I'm curious about this since, there is program that i want to apply to and I can apply this year if i want to but there are couple classes that i can retake and maybe do more volunteers etc but that would take me another year. so if it doesn't hurt me to re-apply ( just in case if i don't get...

I am currently a Junior right now. Now I am a little afraid of grad school and how you will intensely study for 2-3 years. Right now, I am not too confident about performing well in grad school, PT or OT. Over the past few semesters, I have been trying to become a better student with no prevail...

Has anyone heard back from Duke for regular decision applicants who did not apply for ED?

I know this is early! But I wanted to create this post to keep track of who has been accepted so far. I had my interview on 10/20 and am currently awaiting a response! Best of luck to you all!

I am a sophomore student who recently changed majors to exercise science/pre-pt after realizing engineering was not something I was interested in. I originally chose to switch to exercise science because I could still graduate in 4 years and go on to PT school. Now however I am seeing the...
