Updated August 2009
Great news! We have been awarded Candidate for Accreditation status by the Commission on Accreditation in Physical Therapy Education (CAPTE). We are now one step closer to full accreditation, which takes place just before the graduation of the first class, if the program meets all requirements.
This new status allows us to enroll the first class in the fall of 2009. We have just completed the application process and accepted students will begin their PTA education in a matter of weeks!
