The program is accredited by theAmerican Physical Therapy Association, a specialized accrediting body recognized bythe Council on Postsecondary Accreditation, and accepts one class each year for thefinal two years of a baccalaureate degree program.Students admitted into the program complete six semesters (two are summersessions) of combined classroom, laboratory and clinical education plus a minimum of18 weeks of full-time supervised clinical practice in various clinics in West Virginia andother states. A Bachelor of Science degree is awarded to those completing theprogram, and entitles the graduate to apply for examination for state licensure. Alicense to practice physical therapy is required by all states.Admission RequirementsRecommended high school preparation for physical therapy includes courses inbiology, chemistry, algebra, trigonometry, physics, and social sciences. Typing andfamiliarity with computers are advised.Because individualized instruction in laboratories and clinics is an essentialcomponent of the program, enrollment must be limited. All students who wish to enterthe program must apply for admission and must have completed or be enrolled in thecourses listed on the next page. These courses are available at most junior and seniorcolleges and usually require two years to complete. Students with degrees in otherfields are welcome to apply, but must also complete these courses.Physical Therapy 261
