What happens after I apply?
Once your PTCAS application is verified, the Admissions Counselor will review your file for missing requirements and contact you if necessary. Applications that meet our requirements are then reviewed by the DPT Admissions Committee.
Interviews are not required; however, we reserve the right to request a phone or virtual call if indicated. A request to discuss your application should not be construed as evidence of acceptance.
NSU will begin notifying applicants of their admissions decision via email beginning in mid-December. Due to processing times and holiday closures, applications received in December may not receive a decision until January.
Contact Danielle White, Admissions Counselor at (954) 262-1121 or dw1396@nova.edu with any questions.
