What are the Top 10 Physical Therapy Schools?
Asked by metricmetal
This is a very informal survey... I'd like to hear from those in the PT field. My understanding is both Marquette’s program and SLU’s program are good. Any others?
I ask, because my daughter is looking at Marquette and St. Louis, but she is also interested in larger "Big Ten" type schools, but we really don’t know which are good, better, or best.
Thanks.

Those are both good schools...Northwestern and Midwestern and Creighton are also excellent if she wishes to remain in the midwest. Other well known schools include U of Soth Cal and University of Slippery Rock.
Realistically, to find a "good school", go to a schools website and find out what their "first pass rate" is on the licensure exam. It certainly helps to pass the exam on the first try.
Go to http://www.apta.org to the educational programs section to get a profile on each school.
