Has anybody heard from GULC PT? Did you apply to just PT or the either option?

What are the generally regarded LSAT and GPA "floors" to be competitive for PT?

none, really. it's probably the most unpredictable program.

i was part of that cycle last year and saw a couple people with very low LSATs (some 161s with 3.7 gpa or so and significant time out of college) get in, while several, if not many people with relatively higher LSATs (168s and 169s with 3.4 or 3.5ish GPAs) get WLed or straight up denied. It's uncertain what they tend to value - maybe work experience, maybe a compelling reason for being in the pt program, maybe age, but maybe not, since those numbers now count in the US News rankings. there is no clear rubric and people who matched and even surpassed the medians were WLed and straight up dinged while people who were below their medians were accepted. so it's hard to gauge a real pattern.
