| This program consists of ten modules that include academic course work and 30 weeks of clinical practicum experiences. Following the tenth module, there will be one week dedicated to final completion and presentation of a research project that is integrated throughout the curriculum. The program has been designed to offer students a high quality educational experience and to ensure that the University of Saskatchewan continues to offer a program that is consistent with national accreditation standards, other Canadian physical therapy programs, and the leadership direction of national Physical Therapy professional organizations. Students will graduate with the entry-level clinical requirements to obtain a license to practice physiotherapy in Saskatchewan and Canada. Initial work expectations of graduates will be, primarily, the provision of direct client care, rather than advanced research and/or management. |

Selection for admission is based upon academic performance (i.e. admission average) and interview performance. The minimum admission average that will be accepted is 70%. The admission average is a weighted average calculated using a minimum of 60 credit units. The most recent credit units at the time of application are used. For the purpose of calculating the admission average, all courses in a given term will be used. Applicants are ranked according to the admission average and the top 96 applicants are granted interviews. When computing applicants’ total admission scores, the admission average is weighted 60% and the interview score is weighted 40%. |
| Additional Admission Requirements: | The CASPer® (Computer-based Assessment for Sampling Personal characteristics) test and a Personal Statement is one component of the admissions process for the MPT program.
