I am from Canada and therefore do not know a lot about Australian physio programs other than they are very highly regarded.
If you are in the DPT program at Melbourne, know someone in the program, or just have the "ins" on this program could you please tell me how you like it, pros, cons, comparison to other DPT or MPT in australia, where melbourne ranks compared to other programs. Is this a "home-run" acceptance I received?
If you are a Canadian and in this program, your views would be GREAT!
This is obviously a huge financial committment being an international student and would like to know basically.... how good is this program? Is DPT at melbourne suitable for someone who has not done an undergrad in physio (Canada does not have these programs- we have kinesiology, bach of science, exercise science etc)?
any info would be more than appreciated!!!!
