Through the Educational Leadership Partnership (ELP), ACAPT, APTA and the APTA Academy of Education, are promoting the use of fact sheets that provide financial information on DPT and PTA programs in a consistent manner so that student and prospective students can more easily compare costs between schools.
See the Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) Program Financial Fact Sheet 2020-2021 here. We encourage all PT programs to post the completed fact sheets on their academic programs' websites.
In 2018, ACAPT members approved Alternate Approval Process developed by the Federation of State Boards of Physical Therapy (FSBPT) to help ease the administrative burden during the initial processes of students entering the PT community.
