need suggestions

Unread postby animalown » Thu Sep 01, 2005 8:54 pm

I have no idea where I want to go to college. But, I do know that I want to go to a D1 school that has a good physical therapy program and a good track team/coach. Anyone have suggestions?

Here at Marquette we have the 16th ranked PT program in the nation. You can get directly admitted as a freshman into our Doctor of Physical Therapy program.

D1 track and field.....we are starting to get a better vault program. Big East Conference. Our coach has the Wisconsin High School state pole vault record and was a 17 footer at University of Wisconsin. He just started this past year with us.

Marquette is where its at ;)
TOTALLY!!
But in any case, I was in your same situation in highschool, wanting to vault for a DI school but college was yet so far away.

I think its good that you are taking this into consideration already. My advise is, don't worry too much about where you want to go right now, believe me that time will come, and if you're like me and my other friends you'll switch your school decision at least 2-4 times your senior year!! For now, focus on your vaulting; get those higher heights and the coaches will be looking for you to go to their school ;)
