Neurologic Residency Admissions

Admissions Policy

The holistic admissions process aims to build a Neurological Residency class that reflects a wide range of individual characteristics and backgrounds, preparing students for the variety of experiences they will encounter in their practice. For the admissions process, we intend to foster a rich learning environment for students in the program and create a class of graduates who will, as a group, achieve excellence across the many domains of physical therapy. Our consideration will include background and several other factors contributing to a class with a broad range of life experiences.
