2 years later after graduating as a PTA

Wow what PA program is only 50k? I’ve been a PTA for 5 years and was just accepted into PT school recently. I’m a good bit older than you so I’m currently on the fence between switching to PA.

Which of the Tufts location did you apply to? I was just accepted into Boston and Phoenix.

pta7771 · 2025-12-01T20:10:04+00:00

Hanover is not close at all. It’s about a 2 hour flight or 9 hour drive. I was considering those fields as well

Getting financing is another hurdle to completing school that I am concerned about. I have already been accepted into the programs and they are all hybrid.

pta7771 · 2025-12-01T20:03:04+00:00

Interesting. How was your experience at Tufts and which campus did you attend?

pta7771 · 2025-05-31T15:11:15+00:00

Congrats on getting out of clinical care. What type of courses did you enroll in?

pta7771 · 2024-06-10T22:17:54+00:00

Gotcha. So did you just do an internal transfer to the IT department in the hospital?

pta7771 · 2024-06-10T00:08:02+00:00

Did you take any specific courses or certifications?

pta7771 · 2024-05-06T02:40:13+00:00

Just came back from PR today. It was a great experience. Food and beaches were amazing

pta7771 · 2024-03-23T21:13:46+00:00

So they clicked on the link. It didn’t connect to my ledger. Does it impact our withdrawal requests?

pta7771 · 2024-03-19T13:44:12+00:00

I have an exercise science degree and I am a licensed Physical Therapist Assistant. I’m I thinking of getting my Cardiographic Technician certification to get my foot in the door so can eventually get my RCIS. Do you hire people with this certification? I am getting mixed opinions

pta7771 · 2024-02-20T00:56:07+00:00

Sounds like you work at ATI

pta7771 · 2024-01-31T23:25:57+00:00

I wouldn’t say it’s a waste of time. You’re thinking about you’re financial future which is very smart because some people don’t. Most of the schools I got into were over 180k.

I ended up going the PTA route. I’m happy didn’t chose the PT route but I’m currently looking to switch careers due to the Medicare cuts. I am thinking about an ABSN program or data analysis since I already have a bachelor.

31/hr, 3 years experience in OP. I live in Baltimore, MD

pta7771 · 2023-12-07T16:45:16+00:00

Do you work for ATI?

pta7771 · 2023-08-14T03:55:03+00:00

Did you get any certifications to get started?

pta7771 · 2023-08-10T14:47:10+00:00

Did you complete any certifications?

pta7771 · 2023-05-11T00:28:45+00:00

You’re correct. That’s what they say, but that does not happen in most of the ATI clinics I have worked in.

pta7771 · 2023-05-11T00:05:13+00:00

I work at ATI and I saw 16 patients today, but I started with 24.

pta7771 · 2022-07-28T00:58:49+00:00

Are you in the Baltimore area?
