Applying to PT School

Now that summer is more than half over, I am getting into the thick of applying to DPT programs for the fall of 2012. I have started my general application on PTCAS, begun writing my general essay, and am narrowing down the list of schools to which I’ll apply. I’m also studying for the GREs, which I hope to take in September.

It’s a lot to juggle on top of finishing up pre-requisites and working as a physical therapy aide, but I’m so far enjoying the process.

I like taking the time to closely reflect on why I’m trying to become a PT, and I am having fun trying to imagine myself at various programs for the next few years.

I’m wondering if any readers of this blog have general advice about applying to PT school, and also about deciding which schools to apply to. It’s an exciting time, and I welcome any tips!
