i was just wondering what the policies are when it comes to taking a "gap year"
Once you are accepted into a DPT program. I ask this because I really would like to take a year to travel around the world. My brother did this between undergrad and medical school, and he said it was a life-changing experience.
For example,
I plan on applying next summer (summer 2017).... Once The next cycle on PTCAS opens.
So if I didn't take a gap year I would begin probably the late summer of 2018 (most programs begin about August, and if I took this option I would be the class of 2021).
Would I be allowed to start instead in 2019 and be in the class of 2022?
