I want to become a physical therapist when I graduate from grad school, and right now, I don't know which undergrad degree I want to pursue. I got into Saint Louis University for Health Sciences and Indiana University Bloomington for Exercise Science. What do you guys think will be better for becoming a physical therapist? Tell me your reasons too. Thank you!
I would go with IU because exercise science is similar to Kinesiology and you're going to be studying the mechanics of body movement which is more useful when becoming a physical therapist! Health science is a great major too but it really all comes down to which school you think is best for you! Good luck :)
Thanks for the suggestion! Yeah that’s what I’m leaning more on. However, if physical therapy doesn’t work out for me, I’ll have more job opportunities with a health science degree, that’s why I’m very stuck with my decision. Thank you for your insight!
I ended up choosing IU Bloomington for anyone that wanted to know
This might not seem very helpful, but my brother goes to IU Bloomington and he says that the day-to-day college life there is AMAZING. Lot of people, Greek life, fun things to do in the area, great classes, etc.
