- Admissions Standards says both unlimited eligible online labs and a maximum of two; A&P labs must be in person under its recent-course rules.
Latest admissions source review
Confirm online laboratory acceptance before relying on this program's prerequisite checklist.
Deadline reconciled by application cycle: the March 31 timeline explicitly describes 2025–26. The How to Apply page explicitly covers the 2026–27 cycle and Summer 2027 entry, with a February 15 close. Online-lab rules still contradict one another.
Questions still requiring confirmation- For my chemistry and physics courses, does the maximum of two online labs apply, or does the FAQ's uncapped rule apply?
- For my A&P courses, is the in-person rule based on registration on or after May 31, 2025, or on taking the course after Summer 2025? Include institution, course number, lab format, registration date and completion term.
Application timing
February 15, 2027: complete application; rolling admission for Summer 2027 The current-cycle instructions say every complete application received July 1 through February 15 is reviewed, with seats commonly filling earlier. The March 31 timeline is explicitly labeled for the older 2025–26 cycle.
Application route: UMN Graduate School; not PTCAS
A past date remains past; no date is advanced to a future year. Confirm whether the program requires submission, completion, or verification by its deadline.
Observation experience
Forty completed clinical PT hours are required before submitting. Planned hours do not count. Describe the experiences; the current FAQ says separate verification is not required.
Hours alone do not establish eligibility. Check accepted settings, supervision, verification and completion timing.
