CAPTE will then use this information in the Fall of 2027 to determine the program’s accreditation status. Students from the 2027 cohort are anticipated to graduate from the program on or around December 18, 2027. They will be eligible to sit for the National Physical Therapy Exam (NPTE) in January of 2028.
