What is the cost of a t-DPT degree? Why does the cost vary from program to program?
The price can range from around $4500 to more than $18,000. The price you will pay depends primarily on the number of credits required for graduation. Although this variable is a critically important one, there are other differences that should be taken into account by a learner/applicant. For example, the learner/applicants should consider the faculty, location, delivery mode, institutional/program reputation, institutional/program mission, and, most importantly, personal and professional long-range needs and career goals. Having said that, one of the major variables in pricing will be the degree to which a t-DPT program chooses to account for the learner/applicant’s knowledge and experience; often, that decision directly impacts the design of a learner-centered curriculum, including the number of credits required for graduation. For that reason, it is important to discuss pricing with all of the programs being considered.
