Competitive Candidate Profile

Many applicants ask “What qualities do you look for in a student?” This can be answered with another question: “What qualities do you look for in a healthcare provider?” We believe that a great healthcare provider is not only knowledgeable, but experienced, compassionate and a good communicator.

Although there is no formula to ensure admittance to the DPT Professional program, it is in your best interest to demonstrate to the admissions committee whichever of the following key attributes you possess.
