If you already got your bachelor's degree in business and you then want to change it to something else like Physical Therapy is it good to go for your Assoicates then?

Answer 1

If you already have your bachelors degree, I would notrecommend that you back track to an associates degree, unless you are considering a Physical Therapist Assistant program that is offered by some community colleges. However, this is not a program designed for transfer. If you are considering a career as a Physical Therapist, then you have to think of higher level degrees. At one time colleges and universities offered a bachelors degree in Physical Therapy. That was then dropped in favor of a masters degree. I believe now they have or are calling for a doctorate degree. Read the following carefully. It can help you search for colleges and universities offering this program of study, so you can then understand the entrance requirements.

You can obtain this information by going to www.collegeboard.com/splash/ and using the sites College MatchMaker search engine, or you can also click on the related links below which will take you directly to the site. You can research colleges and universities by name, or by programs of study, or by geographical location, size, or combinations of part or all of them etc. The site will provide you with a list of institutions based on your request. It will give you the schools background, accreditation, degree offerings, programs of study, entrance requirements, tuition and fees, athletic programs etc. and a link to each institutions official web page. Make sure the college or university has a regional accreditation (most important). Practice navigating this site. It will be well worth the time and effort.
