I am a pre-physical therapy student currently in my junior year in undergrad. I desperately need a mentor! I go to a school that has faculty who know everything about getting into med school, but nothing about physical therapy. I have no idea what i'm going to do for recommendations because of this. I have no one to run ideas by or to ask questions. I'm very organized and motivated so if anyone would be willing to take on the task of being my mentor, let me know. A practicing PT would be ideal but any connections that I can make that this point would be great.

If you have any questions I could try to help but I am not a PT. I am currently applying to DPT programs and I learned a lot throughout the process so if you need anything feel free to ask me. I would be glad to help.

Hi Katie,
I'm not a PT student yet, but I got into all the schools I applied to and went through the whole app process, so if you need any help, let me know.

Your recommendations will most likely need to come from PTs that you have had a significant amount of contact with. This would be a good time to set up some shadowing or volunteer opportunities with licensed PTs. You will have been working with them a few months before asking for recs from them.

As far as the application process is concerned though, aside from going directly the schools being applied to, I've found more information here on SDN than anywhere else. There is a wealth of information if you look back through old threads.
