Hey there! I am attending Regis this fall. Maybe I can help with some info on the application, interview process, and a couple of other things to think about.
First, each school reviews applications differently. Regis seems to place a lot of emphasis on the total student. So, stats are not the sole factor in getting an interview or accepted. It is good to have life experience, clinical experience and a true desire to help others.
I think I am the person DPT_19 is referring to about the 2.9 gpa and scholarship. While it would have been much easier and less stressful to know someone in the department, that wasn't the case. Making a gross assumption about my acceptance may be a revealing character trait. I would like to think that I had decent stats (other than my cgpa, which was explained on my application), excellent essays, and I aced the interview. Regis also places an emphasis on diversity throughout the application process. I think this is the reason I received a scholarship.
I have had nothing but good experiences so far. Hopefully that does not change. The faculty, staff, and current students have been warm, welcoming and helpful. Everyone has a unique experience, though. I am a firm believer in making a situation what you want it to be, so hopefully that leads to a positive experience. I am truly looking forward to starting school.
A couple of things to think about. Tuition is expensive at Regis because it is a private school. The Denver area is booming right now, so housing prices are kind of outrageous. Housing is also rather competitive. Colorado seems to be a popular place to move these days. Regis is a Jesuit Catholic school, so there is a reasonable expectation that it will lean conservative. Having a desire to help those in need is important as service learning is also emphasized.
I hope this helps! PM me if you have any questions that I may be able to answer! Good luck!
