What are the requirements for a foreign-educated physical therapist?
The basic requirements are the same as that of a physical therapist educated in the United States. Please refer to question 3. Your education must be evaluated by a Board-approved credentialing agency and must be considered comparable to a US degree in physical therapy at the time of graduation. In addition, you must show evidence of oral competency in the English language. Acceptable evidence is an oral competency certificate from your university or successful scores on a current TOEFL examination.
