Physical Therapy Program at Marquette

Hi! I’m currently a high school junior looking into a career in physical therapy. Marquette is my dream school as it has a really good 3+3 DPT program. I’m wondering what my chances of getting into the program are. I have a 3.9 UW GPA and a 4.2W GPA. I have taken AP World History and am currently taking AP Calculus AB, AP Chemistry, and AP Psychology. Next year I will take AP Bio, AP Physics, AP Gov, and AP Statistics. I have an ACT score of 34 (I’m wondering if I should retake it) and also volunteer at a physical therapy clinic and a chiropractic clinic every week. I know that the physical therapy program at Marquette is highly selective, so any advice on how to maximize my chances of getting in is appreciated.

Can you give us an update? I’m wondering if you got accepted!

Did you get in?

my S just got letter on this Friday, he got to the program, he has GPA 3.6, ACT 31, but he works as Soccer referee; physical therapy shadowing; and cross country from Jr high to high school. I am little worry about his GPA…but happy received this good news.
