OAR 848-010-0010: Approval of Schools of Physical Therapy

All schools for physical therapists and physical therapist assistants that are accredited by the Commission on Accreditation in Physical Therapy Education (CAPTE), are considered approved schools of physical therapy. A school shall be considered to be an approved school of physical therapy within the meaning of this section if the school was accredited as above at the time the licensure applicant graduated. At its sole discretion, and on a case-by-case basis, the Board may grant licensure to an applicant who has graduated from a school of physical therapy if, at the time of his/her graduation, the school is a candidate for accreditation and subsequently is granted the accreditation.
