SUNY Broome Community College PTA Program Overview

The Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) program at SUNY Broome Community College in Binghamton, NY, offers a comprehensive pathway for students seeking an Associate in Applied Science (A.A.S.) degree. This full-time, 66-credit hour program is accredited by CAPTE and prepares graduates to work under licensed physical therapists in diverse settings such as hospitals, outpatient clinics, schools, and skilled nursing facilities throughout the Southern Tier of New York.
Students complete foundational courses like anatomy & physiology, psychology, physics for health sciences, and specialized PTA coursework. A distinctive feature is the required volunteer clinical hours before enrollment—reflecting SUNY Broome’s strong commitment to community service. Clinical education continues throughout the program with hands-on rotations at local healthcare facilities; most are within an hour’s drive from campus.

Graduates consistently perform well: recent years saw a graduation rate around 70%, licensure pass rates averaging over 90%, and employment rates at 100%. Tuition remains affordable compared to four-year colleges; current costs can be found on SUNY Broome’s website or through their Admissions Office.

Career prospects are excellent locally and nationally due to growing demand for PTAs across rehabilitation fields including orthopedics and geriatrics. While this program isn’t designed as a direct transfer route into Doctor of Physical Therapy programs, articulation agreements exist for those interested in further study.
