Transferring Credits into the DSc in Physical Therapy Program

A maximum of 40 semester credit/hours (three-course units or their equivalents) may be approved for transfer credit. Transfer credits will be considered if the course(s) is similar in content and rigor to the Bellin College Doctor of Science in Physical Therapy curriculum, and the grade must be at least an “AB” (90% and above). Grades of” B” are only accepted under special circumstances with program director approval.  Grades of “B-“, “B/C”, “C”, “C/D”, “D”, are not accepted.

Credit may be given for terminal doctoral degree level bio-statistics classes, with successful passing of a competency examination in this area.

The student must submit an official transcript, description and syllabi of the course(s) taken to the DSc Program Director for evaluation if the student believes the course is equivalent to a Bellin College graduate course. 

Transfer credit decisions are at the discretion of the Program Director. If approved, the transfer credit will appear on the transcript but will not be calculated into the student’s GPA.

Note that transfer credits cannot be applied toward the acquisition of the Bellin College OMPT Fellowship unless completed through Evidence in Motion ™.
