Items to resolve

Application timing

January 31, 2027: UPR central admissions calendar The central Medical Sciences Campus admissions calendar explicitly lists January 31, 2027 for DPT and a September 1, 2026 opening. Use the UPR application route. The program page retains a February 6, 2026 notice from the previous intake; do not carry that old extension forward.

Application route: UPR application at solicitud.upr.edu

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

Thirty PT-supervised observation, volunteer, or shadowing hours must have been completed within the two years before applying. Include the clinical observation form with the application packet.

Hours alone do not establish eligibility. Check accepted settings, supervision, verification and completion timing.

Tuition and published program costs

The reviewed official RCM/UPR material did not identify a dated 2026–27 DPT tuition schedule. Older doctoral-credit charges remain historical/undated; no generic UPR doctorate rate was applied to the Medical Sciences Campus.
