Adelphi University's Joint Degree/Early Assurance Programs allow students to combine an undergraduate liberal arts and sciences education at Adelphi with specialized or advanced study at a partnering university and to earn degrees from both.
The Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) degree program offers an excellent opportunity
for graduates of Adelphi to transition to New York Medical College (NYMC) whose
campus setting is much like Adelphi’s. NYMC offers close professional relationships
between faculty and students, students assigned to faculty members for professional
development and advisement. Their targeted class size is limited to 30 students.
NYMC welcomes students to apply from across all academic disciplines as long
as all prerequisites are met. Adelphi students who are recommended by Adelphi’s
Pre-Professional Advisory Committee are waived from taking the GRE requirements.
This program prepares students to become competent and caring physical therapists
who will be able to skillfully practice in a variety of clinical settings and
meet future changes in the health care system. The program provides students
a strong foundation in the basic sciences, expertise in the examination, diagnosis,
and treatment of movement impairments, and extensive clinical training much
of which may be completed on Long Island during the second and third years of
study in the practice of physical therapy.
