Physical Therapy Doctorate Scholarship Application

Streamline Your DPT Scholarship Applications with Paperform

Finding funding for your Doctor of Physical Therapy degree shouldn't be as challenging as the program itself. This Physical Therapy Doctorate Scholarship Application template is designed specifically for universities, healthcare foundations, and professional organizations offering financial support to future physical therapists.

Built with Paperform's intuitive form builder, this template captures everything scholarship committees need to evaluate candidates: GRE scores, clinical observation hours, patient population preferences, anatomy knowledge, and supervisor references—all in one streamlined application.

Why This Template Works for PT Scholarship Programs

Physical therapy programs attract highly qualified candidates with diverse clinical backgrounds. This template helps you assess both academic preparedness and hands-on experience efficiently. The anatomy knowledge assessment section lets you gauge foundational understanding, while clinical observation tracking ensures candidates have meaningful patient exposure before entering doctoral studies.

With conditional logic built in, the form adapts based on applicant responses—showing relevant follow-up questions about specialty interests or clinical settings. This creates a personalized experience for applicants while giving your review committee the structured data they need for fair comparison.

From Application to Award with Paperform + Stepper

Once applications roll in, Paperform's native integrations keep your scholarship workflow moving. Connect submissions to your CRM or applicant tracking system, automatically send confirmation emails with next steps, and use Stepper to route applications through your review process—notifying committee members, tracking scoring, and triggering award notifications without manual handoffs.

For programs requiring signed acceptance letters or financial aid agreements, Papersign transforms approved applications into legally binding documents that scholarship recipients can sign electronically, keeping the entire process digital and auditable.

Whether you're a university PT department, a state physical therapy association, or a healthcare foundation supporting the next generation of rehabilitation professionals, this template provides the professional structure and workflow automation you need to manage competitive scholarship programs at scale.
