Application Instructions

Deadlines

The priority deadline is December 1 for Fall enrollment. Applicants are encouraged to complete the admission process prior to the deadline.

Application Process

Applications for the DPT program are submitted through the Physical Therapist Centralized Application Service (PTCAS). The next application cycle begins in July 2011 for the entry-level professional physical therapist program starting in Fall 2012. To learn more about the application process and schedule, visit the PTCAS website.

Fulfillment of the admission requirements does not guarantee acceptance to the program. Each application that has been completed with the accompanying materials required by St. Catherine University will be considered by the Admission Committee. No credentials will be returned to the applicant.

Please note: Due to changes to the Graduate Record Examination (GRE), applicants applying for the 2012 entering class MUST complete the GRE prior to July 31, 2011. In addition, after July 2011 all official scores must be sent directly to PTCAS. Please visit the PTCAS website for more detailed instructions.
