Hello to everybody. Im a Filipina (Foreign National)BSPT graduate from philippines. My Husband and I move here in Corpus,Christi Texas 2 weeks ago & Were in the military. I am thinking to apply for PT licence here in corpus,christi. I read some of the forum here -texas is hard to get in. I know most of the forum here were posted late -subject (foreign PT). Im hoping some body here could reply to my question. I dont know how am i going to apply for a licence and where to start& if they would accept me because im a foreign national &if there is any review course that i should attend to take the exam.
Its so depressing ..esp.if you dont know any body from this field that you could ask an information. hopefuly there is some body here that i could be able to talk or give me a reply back. Thanks...

Start here and look for information on who to contact and what to do next.
I'm located in Texas, but I am not specifically familiar with all the rules/regulations about foreign PT's here in Texas.
I hope all goes well.

You will have to go through credential evaluation.
Check with the board to see where to go.
Texas requires 60 credits of general education. You can take courses at community colleges.Make sure to send transcripts and detailed course description from Phillipines.
You will have to pass TOEFL, TSE, and TWE.
Foreign PTs who graduated before 2002 are eligible for licensure after meeting all requirements. I know some foreign PTs who worked so hard and finally got the Tx license.
For exam preparation, try to attend one course. Go to [URL=http://www.therapyed.com]www.therapyed.com[/URL] and take their course and buy their review book.

Hello Guys,
The Clinic I work for is looking for Polish Therapists. If you are interested, they'll do all the Immigration paperwork, etc...
