Choosing a Physical Therapy Program

How to choose a physical therapy program? 1,2
American Physical Therapy Association (APTA) and Commission on Accreditation in Physical Therapy Education (CAPTE) do not rank programs. Physical therapy educational programs are accredited by (CAPTE) which assures quality in physical therapy education. The accredit program is required for eligibility licensure examination. According to APTA, the decision to choice a program that you want to attend is based on different factors:

  • Geographic location and size of the institution and program
  • Cost
  • Class size; faculty to student ratio
  • Design and length of curriculum
  • Licensure pass rates
  • Employability
  • Faculty composition, content expertise, and cohesiveness (years working together)
  • Degree awarded
