Caution-UIC for PT School

[ptstudent1996]

Hi all Pre-PT students, just wanted to tell you all to proceed with caution if you are choosing to go to UIC for PT school/considering it. The quality of education is NOT what is used to be and there are so many issues with the administration. Reach out with any questions!

Hi all Pre-PT students, I am a current UIC PT student and just wanted to tell you all to proceed with caution if you are choosing to go to UIC for PT school/considering it. The quality of education is NOT what is used to be and there are so many issues with the administration. As as student I have had a pretty rough and terrible time there and do not want anyone to go through what I did! Reach out with any questions!

Please listen to this student's warning. We work our entire lives to get into a DPT program and choosing this program has been a huge disappointment and regret. I feel prepared to enter the PT field thanks to great DPT's who mentor me on my own time. I wouldn't wish this experience on anyone. You deserve better.

Thank you so much for posting! As someone with a TON of anxiety about ending up in a "bad" program, I appreciate that you took the time to say this!

You're welcome! I wish more people had the guts to stand up and not be afraid or threatened for speaking out about their experiences.

Not interested in their program, but I appreciate you saying this! Anyone else who has had bad experiences at any programs should speak up as well.

I agree! And I think by people speaking up, we can make our education much better.

Here's a reddit thread with more comments from current and former students. Some positive, some negative so you can form your own opinion.
