Our curriculum emphasizes both research and business, and our clinical sites range from local to international. However, the lasting relationships students forge with our renowned faculty, and with each other, are what make physical therapy education at Belmont University so unique.


From the day you first set foot on campus, through graduation and beyond, you will find the Belmont community with you every step of the way toward your goal of a dynamic, challenging career in physical therapy.

The graduating class of 2006 is the first class in the history of the program to have every member of the class successfully pass the National Physical Therapy Examination on the first attempt.  The School of Physical Therapy also enjoys a 100 percent overall pass rate for the past three years.
