There are certain disqualifying medical conditions that will prevent you from passing the ADCI dive physical.

DIT will assist in arranging a physical at or around your orientation date. Please contact admissions if you have any questions regarding your dive physical.

The cost of the physical is Approx. $700.00. In the event that a student receives a disqualifying physical AFTER being accepted and enrolled, any and all monies paid to DIT will be refunded.


The school’s location near the Puget Sound creates training situations that are as close as possible to the actual environments professional divers will encounter.
