Physical Therapy
The professional education of a physical therapist is obtained at a School of Physical Therapy. The favored degree is the Master's in Physical Therapy, which is usually a two-year program. Some schools do offer a Bachelor's degree. A state licensure examination is required.
Prior to admittance to physical therapy school, you must complete the "prerequisites," a set of courses in science and communications required by that school. For a complete list of physical therapy schools and their prerequisites, consult the following:
