Physical Therapist Assistant - Track (AAS.PTA.TRK)

The Physical Therapist Assistant Track prepares the student for acceptance into the Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) program. Applicants are instructed to begin their PTA application with the AAS.PTA.TRK major code. Students are counseled on admission requirements into the PTA Program as well as preparatory course work that will increase their success rate once they are accepted into the PTA program. Once accepted into the PTA program, the major code will be changed to AAS.PTA.

Program requirements may change over time. Specific degree/graduation requirements are determined by a degree audit.
