Pre-Physical Therapy Biology Students

Pre-Physical Therapy students commonly major in biology but may choose any major they wish. Pre-Physical Therapy is an academic advisement area. We offer focused advisement by professors who advise other Pre-Physical Therapy students.

Most Graduate schools require:

  • Letters of recommendation, usually three. Some of these letters need to focus on your clinical experiences, not just your academic preparedness, and one or more of the letters should be from a practicing physical therapist.
  • You must take certain courses at the right time to be prepared for the Graduate Record Exam (GRE). Students usually take the GRE during the spring semester of their third year.
  • Acquire volunteer experience in physical therapy along the way. Some programs require experience in more than one setting.
