Physical Therapy

 

Coming Soon

The Department of Physical Therapy will be offering a transitional Doctor of Physical Therapy (T-DPT) program starting Spring 2012. This transitional program will offer a modified version of the current DPT program to practicing therapists who graduated with a Master or Bachelor degree as their entry-level professional degree. It is currently pending approval.

The admission criteria are as follows:

  • Transcript of graduation from an accredited physical therapy program.
  • Current license to practice physical therapy in the United States.
  • Completion of the Texas Common Application.
  • Submission of a letter of recommendation from another physical therapist familiar with the skills and abilities of the applicant, preferably from the applicant’s current supervisor.
  • Successful completion of a background check upon preliminary acceptance to the program.
  • Evidence of valid health insurance upon preliminary acceptance to the program.
  • Immunization record/documents indicating vaccination status upon preliminary acceptance to the program. The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio requires complete current vaccinations prior to registration.

  • Check this website for further information and/or changes.
