Although immunization is not required until accepted into the MSc PT program. It is important to know that all applicants will be required to sign a Statement of Compliance regarding these requirements.

Before participating in site visits or clinical placements, students must be appropriately immunized as follows:

• Diphtheria-tetanus
• Rubella
• Measles
• Mumps
• Hepatitus B
• Varicella
• Tuberculosis skin tests

Note: In some cases, even though students have received the series of Hepatitis B immunisations in childhood, immunity is lost over the years.  It is required that students, get tested for Hepatitis B antibodies to determine their immune status.  If they are no longer immune, and need to redo the Hepatitis B series they will need to get a vaccination, then a booster in 1 month and a third shot 6 months later. One month after the 3rd shot serology is repeated and it is determined that the student is either immune or a "non-responder". This is an eight month process, and during those eight months students are not able undertake any clinical experiences outside of the school.

Serology and CRC/VSS records must be dated no earlier that 6 months prior to the September start date.

A recent satisfactory criminal record check, including a vulnerable sector survey, and a valid CPR certificate are also required.

Applicants in this pathway are also eligible for consideration for specific Scholarships.
