SportsPT Posted April 12, 2018 Report Share Posted April 12, 2018 I'm just finishing my Masters degree now and will be 25 when applying next year to physiotherapy programs. I was accepted in the past to a few programs but was unable to attend do to some health issues. I was just wondering how old you guys are that are applying or average age upon starting the program? I'm aware most people are in their early 20's but I was wondering how many of you started a little later.... I'm feeling a little behind now when applying. Also does anyone know if PT schools count your masters program gpa in the calculation... My undergrad is way higher! Thanks Hoping to get in again!

Ptstudent2 Posted April 12, 2018 Report Share Posted April 12, 2018 I would say you are likely going to be the same age as most applicants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QPT2019 Posted April 13, 2018 Report Share Posted April 13, 2018 I believe the average age for this years Queen's cohort is 24. You're never too old to pursue education. As for GPA calculation, most schools will only use your last 2 years of undergraduate coursework. Having a masters just makes your application stronger.

Re-applied this year, and to UK schools as backup. I don’t want to wait another year, regardless of where I go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
