16 16 16 Notes:
• Strong Science students may elect to take BI 211 (instead of BI 102) as the prerequisite for BI 234. • Physics and Chemistry PT-prerequisites are used in the Exercise Science major elective block. • EXS 419 Internship may be used for 120 hours of clinical experience. Students are encouraged to seek out additional,
varied clinical experiences spread out across their undergraduate degree years. • MTH 112 – Elementary Functions is the prereq. to PH 201. • A 200 Level Writing Course and a Medical Terminology course are required by many programs.
The above sample program captures many or all pre-requisites required for consideration for admission to many Doctor of Physical Therapy licensing programs. As pre-requisites DIFFER among DPT programs, this sample program should not be used as a substitute for meeting with an advisor, or for consulting Physical Therapy program requirements directly. ** Visit with an advisor to develop an individualized term-by-term program plan.
