Admission Decision Process

The admissions workgroup will consist of the DPT Program Director, DPT Assistant Program Director, all DPT faculty, the Director of Admissions, and the Physical Therapy Admissions Counselor. The workgroup will review the final student ranking (initial application rubric plus interview score) and place applicants into the following groups:

  • Group 1: ACCEPT, Top 34 ranked
  • Group 2: WAITLIST, All others who meet criteria
  • Group 3: DENY

Following group discussion, the admissions workgroup may vote to alter the final student ranking.

The admissions department will be responsible for notifying the applicant of their final status. The program will avoid over-enrollment by offering only 34 students (Group 1) admission. If a Group 1 student declines the offer, an offer will be extended to the next in rank Group 2 applicant after conferring with DPT Program Director and Assistant Program Director.
