I am a returning, adult student that is looking to get my DPT. My goal is get into UMB's DPT program, which requires a bachelor's in ANY field, and a few other required courses that may or may not be required by the undergraduate program I decided to major in.
With that said, I am having difficulties deciding which degree program to move forward in. I am debating between nutritional science and kinesiology. I want this degree to serve as a back-up as well in case I am not accepted into the DPT program. So I need something that is practical for the pre-requisite to get in, but also a stopping point in case I can't get in.
I feel like there are more job opportunities available in nutritional sciences if I had to stop there, but that kinesiology would offer more required courses to get accepted into the DPT program. However, kinesiology requires organic chem I and II. YUCK! (I'll do it if I have to though...*sigh*)
What would you recommend? What is your undergraduate degree in?
