What do people typically major in at JMU that want to become physical therapists?
Individuals that want to go to physical therapy school can really major in anything, but they must take all the prerequisite courses necessary to apply to each physical therapy school. Many students major in things such as Health Sciences, Kinesiology, Biology, and Psychology. Many students also choose to follow the Pre-PT pre-professional program track, which upon completion allows students to complete most, if not all of the prerequisite courses necessary for graduate school. The take home message is that it is entirely up to you as a student to decide what you would like your major to be!
