**PLEASE DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH. REQUIREMENTS CAN CHANGE**

STUFF TO BE MINDFUL OF
1. Please check the GRE codes for the schools. Some schools require both a school code AND a department code, or there will be a delay in the program getting your scores. When you take your GRE, you can send your scores up to four schools for free so make sure to bring the codes with you on test day!
2. Almost every program requires a lab portion with science courses. If you are unsure about a course, make sure to contact the program. In addition, this means that most programs require science courses to be taken in person and NOT online. (few schools will allow online science courses).
3. Even though programs have a rolling admissions, APPLY EARLY...seats fill up quickly and its more competitive to apply later.
Most programs already have a majority of their seats filled out before the firmed deadline!!!!!!!!
4. For letters of recommendations, most schools usually require one from a professor, one from a licensed PT (MAKE SURE THEY'RE LICENSED IN THE UNITED STATES), and an additional person to speak on your character.
5. Interested in a program on the list? Make sure to factor the required pre-reqs into your undergrad plan. Check PTCAS for course equivalency if necessary. If you are unsure about equivalency, email the course syllabus to the admissions counselor.
6. If you are a FOREIGN applicant, be mindful if programs have special requirements such as taking the TOEFL
