What is the difference between a program that admits students as transfer undergraduates and a program that begins at the graduate level?
The Duquesne University Physical Therapy program is an example of a 6-year program that admits students primarily as 1st year undergraduates. The length of time necessary for students that transfer into the DPT program to complete the pre-professional phase of education will depend on the number of credits eligible for transfer. A DPT-only program requires students have a 4-year undergraduate degree prior to beginning the 3-year DPT education, resulting in a total of 7 years to earn the DPT degree.
