A number of partial tuition fellowships will be awarded to incoming graduate students in Physical Therapy who have demonstrated exceptional academic achievement in prior coursework. These fellowships are offered at the point of admission and recipients are notified along with their letter of acceptance to the program. Fellowship recipients are chosen during the admission process using information on the admissions application; no separate application is required.
