How to Apply
Franklin Pierce University has a rolling admissions policy and accepts applications from July through May each academic year. Applications are reviewed until all planned seats and waiting list placements have been filled.
- Apply Online » The application process for Franklin Pierce's Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) program is managed by the Physical Therapist Centralized Application Service (PTCAS). Please review the application instructions on the PTCAS web site and once you have reviewed the admission requirements create an online account to begin the application process. Qualified applicants will be invited to complete an Admissions Portfolio. PTCAS charges a $120 application fee for using the service; some fee waivers are available. (The University does not receive any portion of this fee).
- Admissions Portfolio by Invitation » The Physical Therapy program at Franklin Pierce will send invitations to submit an Admissions Portfolio to qualified applicants after a review of the PTCAS application. The completed portfolio must be received by the date specified in the invitation. Only portfolio materials from applicants that have received invitations will be reviewed. The applicant will be asked to provide additional essays and documents. These supplemental materials, in combination with the PTCAS application form, comprise the Admissions Portfolio. Additional required portfolio materials such as updated transcripts, GRE score reports and documents for international students should be mailed directly to the program at the address below.
