Any bachelor's degree from any University qualifies you to apply toTWU's physical therapy programs. However, TWU does award bachelor's degrees in biology, psychology, kinesiology, health studies, child development, and nutrition that prepare the student to apply to the Graduate program in Physical Therapy. These degree plans include the required prerequisite courses for physical therapy.
Additionally, TWU in Denton offers Fast Track options in Human Biology, Kinesiology and Psychology that allow you to apply to the professional (entry-level) DPT program in Physical Therapy while in your junior year at TWU. Your application is reviewed concurrently with all other applications received for the next entering class. If accepted to the DPT program, you would be able to complete both your Bachelor's degree and Doctor of Physical Therapy degree in a total of six years instead of seven.
