The admissions workgroup will consist of the DPT Program Director, DPT Assistant Program Director, all DPT faculty, the Director of Admissions, and the Graduate 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, allowing for a 10% increase in a given year to account for admissions attrition
- Group 2: ALTERNATE LIST, all others who meet criteria ranked
- Group 3: DENY
Following group discussion, the admissions workgroup may vote to alter the final student ranking. The alternate list may be revised based on applications submitted after the priority deadline, after collaboration with the DPT Program Director and admissions department.
The admissions department will be responsible for notifying the applicant of their final status.
The goal of the Bellin College DPT program is to enroll 34 students per cohort. Admission offers may be extended to no more than 37 students at one time since CAPTE accreditation standards allow enrollment to exceed the program goal by 10%. If a Group 1 student declines the offer, an offer will be extended to the next in-rank Group 2 applicant after conferring with the DPT Program Director.
