SDSU DPT

I applied! I went through some rough patches with them during the application cycle, however. I submitted my transcripts before I did the application, so all my transcripts were tossed into some pile and so my transcripts were never "received" and processed. After 1.5 months of waiting, I had to call in several times to get the issue resolved. I am currently waiting to see the application decision, though. I looked through the website and couldn't really find a set timeline for when we would hear back.
EDIT: They are not accredited yet, but are a candidate to be. My mistake, sorry for the misinformation.

You are absolutely right. I literally read the first line and then stopped. Assumptions are bad. Let me edit that previous post out.
Though with that being said, it'll be a big surprise to me if they actually don't get accredited. SDSU has several Master's programs already in place for their School of Exercise and Nutritional Sciences, so they definitely are not new to the field.

Normally, Schools will obtain accreditation when its first class graduates. In SDSU's case, its first class will graduate in 05/2015.
Is there some kind of requirement for the licensing examination as well in order to obtain accreditation? As in, say, 80% of more of the graduating students must pass the exam?
You must graduate from a CAPTE accredited program to be eligable to sit for the licensing exam. Programs should gain accreditation just prior to the inaugural class graduating. In the unlikely event that they do not gain accreditation, there is a contingency plan to take classes with and therefore graduate under another program within your state. Most likely, this information will be covered in information sessions with that program. Best of luck to you! Peace and God bless

congrats! when did you receive it? and would you mind sharing your stats?
3.6 I believe... Her pre req GPA was probably strong and she also got props for getting A's and B's in the O Chem series as well as biochem. Her extra curriculars were minimal because she worked through college and only just started getting observation hours this year (vet school was her initial path)
154 for both V and Q and 4.0 AW

Man, this thread is just killing me. Gospel808, damn man, you sure rocked that GPA! I didn't hear anything from them yet, but I hope news is coming soon.
Nope. I checked online and my application is still under review.
I didn't even receive anything! If people are getting waitlisted, then the silence probably means I am declined.
I wish I did. My file still says it's under review by admissions.

Hello Everyone! I know this thread is rather old, but I just wanted to say, in case you haven't heard... We are accredited 🙂 I was a student in the inaugural class, which graduated this May. Congrats to those who have been accepted and good luck with the program!! It's awesommmee
Oh my goodness! Can you tell me a bit about the program? I'm in the process of applying and super anxious about it. I'm in Georgia, so I haven't gotten a chance to go see the university, so I'm very curious about it. Please share 🙂
