Bill Would Permit PT Licensing Exams Prior to Graduation
My legislation to permit students studying physical therapy to take the required licensing exam up to 90 days prior to graduation was unanimously approved this week in the House Professional Licensure Committee. Currently, Pennsylvania law prohibits students from sitting for the exam prior to graduation. Thirty-two other states permit earlier testing, enabling students to start work immediately upon graduation. My bill now goes to the full House for consideration.
