Although most Truman students pursuing pre-physical therapy studies opt to major in exercise science or a basic science, such as biology, health science or a social science are also good majors for pre-physical therapy students at Truman. It is not uncommon for majors in the humanities to be welcomed applicants and accepted into physical therapy school.
Academic Advisors for Pre-Physical Therapy Students
It is essential that you become familiar with the different curricula and sequences available and ask your academic advisor how these fit within your interests and goals. Most disciplines have advisors who are specifically selected to advise students interested in pre-health fields, and you should make a point to visit them regarding your decision or any questions you might have. Truman has a Pre-Health Professions Coordinator, and you are free to contact her as well.
