Navarro College PTA Program Overview
Navarro College’s Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) program, located in the heart of Corsicana, Texas—with additional resources at its Midlothian campus—offers a comprehensive pathway to an Associate of Applied Science Degree (AAS PTA). This two-year program requires completion of 66 credit hours and blends rigorous on-campus coursework with hands-on clinical experiences across diverse physical therapy settings. The curriculum is designed to prepare students for the national certification exam administered by the Federation of State Boards of Physical Therapy (FSBPT), as well as state licensure through the Texas Board of Physical Therapy Examiners.
Accredited by CAPTE, Navarro’s PTA program emphasizes marketable skills such as critical thinking, equipment maintenance, active listening, and patient instruction. Students benefit from small class sizes and support services tailored to health professions majors—including academic advising and access to financial aid options like scholarships and payment plans.
Tuition costs are competitive compared to other Texas community colleges; current rates can be found on Navarro’s website or by contacting their Health Professions office directly. Graduates enter a growing field with strong job prospects locally and statewide—the Dallas-Fort Worth region continues experiencing high demand for skilled PTAs in hospitals, outpatient clinics, schools, and home health agencies.
Unique among area programs is Navarro’s robust student life: Bulldogs enjoy vibrant athletics, clubs, campus events—and proximity to historic downtown Corsicana. For those seeking career advancement opportunities post-graduation, transfer pathways exist with institutions like UT Medical Branch–Galveston for bridge programs toward Doctorate degrees in physical therapy.
