How to Apply

Application Steps

1. Please review our full list of program eligibility requirements to ensure you are ready to apply.
2. Complete the online application through the Physical Therapist Centralized Application Service (PTCAS) at ptcas.org. Please submit all required materials directly to PTCAS and your application will be forwarded to the programs you designate.
3. Once your PTCAS application reaches “Verified” status you will receive an email requesting payment of the $75.00 supplemental KU application fee.
4. If you're accepted into the program without official transcripts at the time of application, you must send final official transcripts to the department at the end of the semester in which your undergraduate degree was achieved.
