I am a non-traditional student doing Pre-reqs for DPT school. I finished my undergrad in 2008 and I am currently takeng biology pre-reqs in order to apply next year for admission. My chemistry and physics pre-reqs are going to be from 2004 and 2005 which will make them 8-9 years old by the time i apply for admission. Has anyone had any issues with DPT schools not accepting "old" classes?

Check with the schools, but typically the only classes that have to be taken within the last 5 years are Anatomy, Physiology & Biology. Some of my other pre-reqs were taken 20+ years ago and they were accepted fine.

Agreed. Check with your schools. Many schools don't have an "expiration date" on classes you've taken in the past; however, this depends on the school to which you are applying.
