Keiser University – West Palm Beach PTA Program Overview

Keiser University’s West Palm Beach campus offers an Associate of Science degree in Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA), preparing students to become skilled, licensed health care professionals who work under the supervision of a physical therapist. The program requires 74 credit hours and can typically be completed in about two years. Coursework includes foundational science classes like Human Anatomy & Physiology I and II, as well as PTA-specific courses such as Kinesiology, Therapeutic Exercise, Patient Care Procedures, Rehabilitation, and extensive hands-on clinical experiences.
To enter the technical phase of the program, students must complete prerequisite courses with strong grades (“B or higher in sciences”) and gain at least 10 hours of observation experience split between inpatient and outpatient settings. Total estimated costs for tuition, fees, books, materials, exams/licensure fees are approximately $47,182.50.

Graduates are eligible to sit for the National Physical Therapy Exam (NPTE) for PTAs; Keiser publishes graduation rates and licensure pass rates on its website per accreditation standards (CAPTE). Career prospects are strong both locally and nationally due to Florida’s aging population and active communities that value rehabilitation services.

Unique features include small class sizes typical at Keiser campuses and individualized support from faculty with real-world experience—a key advantage in a vibrant city like West Palm Beach where many clinics offer internship opportunities right nearby.
