I was wondering if any of you guys and girls had an opinion about the dual DPT/MOT degree offered at St. Augustine?

My current employer graduated from there and really is a supporter of the flexibility and opportunities that such degrees offer

The only thing that kills me is the amount of student loans I will have to take out

Opinions?
 
Welp, instead of taking 7 trimesters in the DPT program, you will take 10 for the Dual Degree.. Each trimester (spring,fall, summer) is $8,400.00. Books, rent, food and supplies not included.. It is really up to you... If you see that it will bring you a better opportunity for a job then go at it.. Personally, I would rather go to a cheap school, but St. Augustine offers a unique option in getting two degrees.

Or another option is try to get a work place to pay half of your tuition while in school in exchange for work =]. This may be a good or bad thing since they will force you to work in a setting. If you dont like the setting then too bad, but on the bright side you got half your tuition paid =].

Now, I read there is a 3 or 4 year program DPT Program which St. Augustine offers for working professionals. Most work is done online and labs are Saturday and Sunday.. OUCH.
