R2P Sports Residency Process & Timeline
We are currently wrapping up our 5th cohort and will start our 6th in September. If you have students who are interested, now is the perfect time for them to begin reaching out to prospective programs and getting familiar with application processes and deadlines.
Rehab 2 Perform participate in the Match process, as do most Sports Residencies. This helps keeps uniformity across programs with applications, interview and offer deadline beginning in October and culminating in March.
Also, we have an exciting announcement to make that we will be having a change in leadership within our program. Dr. Sam Curbelo, DPT, SCS will be taking over as Program Director with our 2026-2027 cohort. Dr. Baker will stay along to help guide her through her first year and with continuity of the program.
