Hey world 1st time user, I'm in a little bit of a dilemma. I recently discover podiatry(5 months to be exact), and I just applied to two school three days ago(Temple & NYCPM). I have already set up an interview with Temple, and am waiting to hear from NY. But my question is this, I have a 15000 dollar a year dean scholarship to Thomas Jefferson University school of Physical Therapy, but I truly believe that my career is in podiatry. I have a 3.6 ovearll GPA and a 3.4 Sciene GPA I havn't taken Org I &II yet, should be done with it doing the summer. But what would you do if you was in my situation, the financial obligation for podiatry is stressing me out.

Tomorrow if some Chiropractic School gives you $100000 full 4 yrs Scholarship. Will you go there? Do what you want to do from your heart. Finances can be arranged or may be you might struggle for sometime but in the end you will be happy bcoz you did what you wanted to do.

You have a good GPA. You can get in Podiatry. And if you have great MCAT scores. You may get a good scholarship in Pod schools.

I know that money is not the end all but look at what a PT maxes out at and then look at a pod. You will incur quite a debt from student loans from either program so you might as well ensure that you are going to make your money back.
