Hey, I am currently a junior at UCSD studying Human Biology. I'm interested in continuing my education in the field of Physical Therapy after I graduate and I am wondering what types of things I can do to make me a more competitive applicant. I hope to gain admission to USC's DPT program because I have wanted to go to school and live in Los Angeles for a while now. So I'm wondering, what types of clinical experience do DPT schools like? I am planning on volunteering at one of the hospitals in my hometown (San Jose) during the Summer of '09 to gain some experience in the physical therapy dept, but besides that and getting the best grades possible, is there anything else I can do to heighten my chances of getting accepted into a DPT school?
