@Chuti63 Thank you! My daughter applied and received her initial acceptance into the University/College of Health Sciences in early October. The acceptance into the DPT program came the last week of December. Her stats are: 3.85 UW GPA/4.61 W GPA, all Honors level classes including 7 AP (like your daughter!). Also had a wide variety of ECs and Community Service. I think the two things that might have helped her most with the application for DPT program was that she was able to do PT Observation in 3 different settings and that she took an Anatomy & Physiology class JR year in which they were able to participate in a 4 day “field trip” where they performed dissections and studied human cadavers. These experiences helped her when writing her essay.
I don’t know anyone else who has applied this year to the MU DPT program so I haven’t heard if anyone else has received notification one way or the other. The waiting is so stressful, isn’t it? Good luck to your daughter!!
@kabh25 Congrats on your daughters acceptance! My DC is also interested in applying for the direct entry programs. May I ask whether she wrote about all these in her main essay? Or the supplementals? Thank you.
