As I said, I’m interested in switching my major to physical therapy. However, our school does not offer that program. I believe they do offer career certificates and training programs in jobs such as: Pre-Pharmacy, Physical Therapist Assistants, and so on. I’m unsure of how I would go about obtaining an associates degree in that field. I would like to primarily work in a pediatric setting. Here’s a list of classes I have taken, and maybe someone can help me out with this…by telling me which would transfer and which one would not. I’m going to also speak with my advisor to find out further information. I really would like to expand my knowledge in the field, and obtain a Master’s at La Salle, Temple, Rutgers, or any surrounding Philadelphia school.
Here’s a list of what I’ve already taken/I’m signed up for:
SUMMER 2008: Remedial 4-day Algebra course
FALL 2008: Remedial Reading Skills III; Nutrition; Computer Literacy; Basic Psychology
SPRING 2009: Developmental Psychology; English Composition I; Health & Wellness
SUMMER 2009: Sociology
FALL 2009: Basic Micobiolgy; Biomedical Ethics
SPRING 2010: English Composition II; Social Conflicts; Chemistry
****THE ONLY COURSE I NEED TO RETAKE IS ANATOMY & PHYSIOLOGY I******
In the summer, I’m going to try to take Statistics or an easy science like Biology.

Please visit the national PT website http://www.apta.org under the education section. Also you do not need to become a PTA before a PT. In fact, this will probably take longer. For PT, you need to get a BS in anything as long as you meet the pre reqs. Generally this is 1 year of gen bio, gen chem, gen physics, A and P. These all have labs. Then you will need math, psy, and statistics. Helpful classes include med term, gross anatomy with a cadaver lab, exercise physiology, developmental psy
