The University of Memphis is seeking accreditation of a new physical therapist education program.

“Get your application in now. We can begin reviewing it, offering an admissions interview. But, if you’re not ready to apply, you have all the way through February and March of Spring 2026 to get your applications in and be considered for our developing DPT program,” said Dr. Jacque Bradford, director for the doctor of physical therapy program.

The hope is to be able to achieve accreditation status in early 2026.
