Area of Science:

  • Health Sciences
  • Education
  • Finance

Background:

  • Student loan debt is a significant issue in the physical therapy profession.
  • Educational costs frequently exceed the earning potential of physical therapists and assistants.
  • This financial burden impacts professionals early in their careers.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the provision and effectiveness of debt management education in physical therapy programs.
  • To evaluate physical therapists' and assistants' awareness of financial resources and debt-to-income ratios.
  • To determine the implementation of debt management strategies by graduates.

Main Methods:

  • A survey was distributed to physical therapists (PTs) and physical therapist assistants (PTAs) across eight states.
  • Respondents graduated between 2011 and 2021.
  • The survey focused on their experiences with debt management education during their training.

Main Results:

  • A high percentage (82.4%) of respondents reported no debt management education.
  • A significant majority (84.8%) of those without education believed it would have been beneficial.
  • Many graduates were unaware of debt-to-income ratios (72%) and experienced unexpected loan amounts (48.8%).

Conclusions:

  • Physical therapy programs offer limited debt management education.
  • Graduates demonstrate low awareness of financial planning tools and resources.
  • Integrating comprehensive financial education throughout physical therapy curricula is crucial to mitigate student loan burdens.
