Application Deadlines

Students are admitted in the Fall semester only. The deadline to apply to PTCAS is October 15 to ensure full consideration of your application, though you may continue to apply through PTCAS until December 1.  All PTCAS-required documents must be submitted to PTCAS by December 1.  It can take up to five weeks for PTCAS to send UM-Flint all of your documents after you have submitted them to PTCAS.  If you do not submit all PTCAS materials to PTCAS by December 1, the materials may arrive to UM-Flint late and will thus take your application out of consideration.  All documents required for admission, including GRE scores and documents sent to UM-Flint by PTCAS must be recieved by January 15.

* For International Students with an existing bachelors degree in Physical Therapy, it would be in your best interest to explore transitional DPT programs designed for Physical Therapists who hold a degree and wish to pursue a post professional doctorate degree.  Please refer to the
APTA website for a list of programs that offer a transitional DPT degree.
