You would not meet the minimum GPA requirements for most programs. Most require 3.0 or higher GPA…even then most people who are admitted have a 3.6 or higher. However, a few of the private schools do accept applicants with a slightly lower GPA…Northwestern and Midwestern will accept students with a 2.75 GPA. SAT scores are not considered at the graduate level program unless you enter a direct admit program. For instance, Marquette’s average SAT score is usually 1268 and ACT is 29 and they are usually in the top 6% of their class in high school. Direct admit students are required to maintain a certain GPA and complete a bachelor’s degree prior to the professional phase.
I would say that your chances for a direct admit program are sketchy, but if you go to college and bring up your GPA and get a good score on the GRE, you will have a lot more options applying as a grad student.
P.S…most DPT programs are a 7 year program. Most MS programs are 6 year.
