Looking for names of schools on the East Coast that offer programs for physical therapy that you can apply to when you apply to undergrad!
Take a look at SUNY Geneseo’s 3+3 PT program with SUNY Upstate Medical Center.
Students spend 3 years at Geneseo as a biology major and then spend 3 more years at SUNY Upstate MC completing the degree.
@momofpt See the below link for direct entry programs. Pennsylvania has 7, New York has 7, Massachusetts 4, Connecticut 3, Maine 1.

Edited to add: I just realized that the link I provided shows all accredited PT programs. You will have to filter (Select a Key Code) for direct entry (A2),
Have you looked at Simmons U in Boston? They have nice merit scholarships…
And a word of advice as a 20+ year DPT: KEEP YOUR SCHOOL DEBT TO A MINIMUM IF POSSIBLE!!!
Northeastern, Boston U, Ithaca, U Hartford and Quinnipiac all have 3+3 programs, and are solid good East Coast schools.
Good Mid-West 3+3 options would include Saint Louis U and Marquette.
