Licensed in another state?
Pennsylvania issues and accepts PT Compact privileges: a physical therapist or PT assistant whose home state is a member can take this job on a compact privilege instead of a Pennsylvania license, $45 for a PT. (PT Compact Commission, 9 Nov 2026.) For a Pennsylvania license, apply to the Pennsylvania State Board of Physical Therapy for a license by endorsement ($30, by its own page): what Pennsylvania asks. Every state's PT Compact status.
What Pennsylvania requires of a physical therapist
Physical Therapist License, from the Pennsylvania State Board of Physical Therapy.
- An applicant licensed in another state, territory or the District of Columbia whose requirements were substantially equal to Pennsylvania's submits the Board's application with the professional credentials required for licensure by examination (accredited physical therapy education and a passing NPTE), the endorsement fee, and proof of 3 hours of approved training in child abuse recognition and reporting.
- Staying active: Licenses renew every two years; physical therapists complete 30 continuing education hours per biennium, including 2 hours of Board-approved child abuse recognition and reporting.
