Program Description

A key advantage of this program for students is the variety of available clinical sites and length of time spent in clinical rotations through four different clinical experiences.

There are two options for pursuing a Doctor of Physical Therapy degree at SRU:

* Traditional 3-year, full-time, entry level

* Pre-Physical Therapy SRU 3+3 - 3 Undergraduate years + 3 Graduate years (for SRU undergraduates only)
