Does anyone know anything about Arcadia's DPT program? I was invited to an admissions information session but I cannot get off of work to go. If anyone can provide any info about the school or program, it would be much appreciated!
I go there as an undergrad and got into their PT program for this Fall. From what my friends say who are currently in their first year at the DPT program, they love it. One friend described the faculty as being "all stars" of the PT world...they are constantly doing research and are pretty big in the field. They are really big on personal attention too. The only thing that I see as a drawback is that we don't have anatomy labs- the PT students use Drexel facilities during their first summer. But that's super minor! Otherwise it's a great program, ranked 14th in the country.
In regards to the area, it's very safe suburbs of outer Philadelphia- we're close to a lot of malls and 30 minutes from center city via car and train. The train station a mile down the road from our campus. If you have any other questions let me know, I'll try to help you answer your questions!
I got into Arcadia and Columbia...does anyone have thoughts as to which is better?
I was recently accepted to Arcadia and plan on attending in the fall. I am from Michigan and do not know too much about the area. I was wondering if any current or past DPT students at AU could provide some information on living - where to live, what's commuting from the city like, parking on campus etc... And of course, any other information you want to share on the program and your experiences would be awesome too!!!!
Thank you so much! 🙂
Any other applicants committed to AU for the fall 2014???
Hi, I am in the same situation as you. I got into Columbia much earlier and was pretty sure I was going there until I got a call from Arcadia today. I am wondering if you have already made your decision. Which school did you choose in the end? And what were the main reasons of choosing one over the other?I got into Arcadia and Columbia...does anyone have thoughts as to which is better?
Hi! I was wondering if you know are there many clinical sites in the new york area, eg. nyc. How do you feel about the anatomy classes being in 2nd year.I'm a current student @ Arcadia. You can PM me if you have any questions. I might not get back to you that same day since we are in the second week of our unit, but I will get back to you.
And how do you feel about the module system instead of midterm and finals? Where are most of the clinical sites at?I'm a current student @ Arcadia. You can PM me if you have any questions. I might not get back to you that same day since we are in the second week of our unit, but I will get back to you.
Are they still sending out acceptances? I received an email a few weeks ago that they would let me know this week; is there any point in even hoping I get in?
