Quincy College PTA Program Overview

The Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) program at Quincy College offers an Associate of Science degree designed to prepare students for licensure and immediate employment as PTAs in a range of healthcare settings. The curriculum, accredited by CAPTE, blends foundational science courses with specialized physical therapy classes and hands-on clinical experiences. Students can choose between two formats: a traditional daytime, in-person track at the Plymouth campus starting each fall, or a hybrid evening option (combining online and on-campus learning) offered every spring at the main Quincy campus—convenient for those balancing work or family commitments.
Spanning five semesters over two years, the program totals approximately 71 credits. Tuition for the entire program is about $50,017 (2023-24 rates), not including books or additional fees. Admission requires prerequisite coursework in biology and math, satisfactory TEAS exam scores (minimum 55%), and completion of observation hours in a physical therapy setting—a valuable opportunity given Quincy’s proximity to Boston’s top hospitals and rehab centers.

Graduates are eligible for the National PTA Licensure Exam; recent cohorts have boasted high pass rates (up to 100%) and full employment within six months post-graduation.The faculty emphasize critical thinking, ethical practice, lifelong learning, community service—and support diverse learners through innovative teaching methods. With its flexible scheduling options near both historic downtown Quincy and scenic Plymouth Bay, this program stands out as an accessible pathway into Massachusetts’ growing allied health workforce.
