PRE PHYSICAL THERAPY

Students interested in applying for admission to physical therapy school may major in any undergraduate field. However, there are required courses (prerequisites) for the pre physical therapy student to consider taking as part of their chosen degree plan. Currently, there are ten programs of physical therapy in the state of Texas.

All ten schools offer graduate degrees in physical therapy.  Information and specific prerequisite course work for each physical therapy school can be obtained from your Pre Physical Therapy advisor.

It is important to note that schools that offer physical therapy programs do not have a standardized prerequisite curriculum and that each sets its own entrance requirements.

Students are advised to contact the physical therapy school of choice for the most up-to-date information on entrance requirements to ensure that the courses taken at Sul Ross State University will be accepted. Recommended courses for pre physical therapy students include: anatomy, physiology, biology, chemistry, mathematics,  physics and statistics.
