The subject matter does not change by location: anatomy and kinesiology, therapeutic exercise, neurologic and orthopedic rehabilitation, and supervised clinical education. What changes is how you take it. Ask each college whether the program holds accreditation from the Commission on Accreditation in Physical Therapy Education (CAPTE), how much of the coursework is delivered online, and which components require you on campus. Credit transfer is decided by the receiving institution and genuinely varies, so request a written transfer evaluation before you enroll.
This page lists 2 schools within 177 miles, closest group first, then ordered by BOC Score with the highest at the top. 2 of them carry a score.
Scores come from IPEDS (2024) and the U.S. Department of Education College Scorecard. Earnings are for all graduates of a school, not one program, so treat them as a signal about the institution rather than about this subject. Sponsored listings are paid placements and are labelled as such; they are separate from this ranking and never change it. Read the full methodology.
