    timelines, and strategies for becoming a competitive applicant.

  • Describe the academic rigor and participant experience of a doctor of physical therapy,
    or DPT, program, including coursework, clinical education, and professional expectations.

  • Identify the role of the GRE in DPT school admissions and recognize effective preparation strategies
    and common considerations related to test-taking.

  • Evaluate the financial implications of pursuing a DPT degree, including tuition, fees,
    financial aid options, and long-term career considerations.
