So within the school Health Professions, we have that the PT degree, which is a doctor of physical therapy degree we have ot they have master's and doctoral degree. The PA program is a professional program. And then we have the health science department which offers many more undergraduate programs. So students at Saint Joseph's as they come in as first year students being admitted into the physical therapy program or other programs as well. But I'll speak about PT specifically, as long as you maintain certain GPAs and your prerequisite courses and your overall GPA, you're automatically in our program. There's no re interview, there's no re application process. So that's a huge benefit. And you can finish a DPT degree in five and a half years.

From the beginning in our program, they've always encouraged a hands on approach and the way that we learn in the way that we understand the material. One of the opportunities that we're presented with is a pro bono clinic in which we're able to see and treat patients in the community in West Philadelphia.

Students get in the clinic, they're learning things in the didactic classroom that they're then applying right away. That's ju student in the clinic is a personable clinician, they make great connections with the patients. So if we can show the students that we're taking care of their whole person, and we can convince them that they need to take care of the whole person when they get to the clinic. They're going to create an atmosphere of trust. It's easy for them. And we hope that it's because we've helped them to make that easy.

The foundations in which Saint Joseph's was built upon and liberal arts really allow for individuals on health professions have a broader viewpoint and how to approach different situations, especially in the medical field. I think that's really something that's brought into the health professions College there at University City.
