Advancing Diversity in Physical Therapy (ADaPT)

UDPT is committed to developing a rich, inclusive environment for the training of future Physical Therapists and rehabilitation scientists. One step we have taken toward this commitment is the implementation of the ADaPT Program. Our hope is that ADaPT will help improve the diversity of physical therapy by exposing students from racial and economically disadvantaged backgrounds to the profession and providing them with resources to be successful applicants to a graduate physical therapy education program.

Undergraduate Admissions Visits

UDPT partners with Undergraduate Admissions on visit days for prospective undergraduate students. We are present on Blue and Golden Saturdays in the fall, and Decision Days in the spring. During these dates, high school students can visit the UDPT clinics and meet current students in the DPT program.
