Duquense Physical Therapy?
I was wondering how difficult it was to get accepted into Duquesne University's freshman garunteed-seat for their physical therapy program. I was recently accepted, and I cannot decide wether to go with Duquense or Drexel. Does anyone happen to know which school's PT program is better? Any help would be apreciated.

Both of these schools are quite comparable. Of most interest to you is probably that for both of them 100% of students passed their licensure exam on the first attempt for the last couple years. This is almost unheard of. Both programs have a vast majority of their staff with post-professional doctorates. Drexel has 5 board certified specialist while Duquense only has 3. But both programs have been active in publication. At Duquense, you will get two more weeks of clinical education. According to the info provided by the APTA, these both sound like great programs and are very comparable. Any differences would be splitting hairs. I had never hear of either of these programs, but they sound great.
