Franklin Pierce Arizona Vs Touro Nevada

Thanks for replying! I'll keep that in mind.
I heard about how the new York one isnt great, however touro California has a pretty good reputation for many of their health career programs. So I'm curious about the nevada campus!

Hey there, I know an individual who began her 1st year as a PT student at Franklin Pierce and withdrew from the program because she felt that the faculty was not focused on the students and they expected the students to know everything and they weren't willing to be helpful to their students. She said their PT program was not at all what she expected PT school to be like or what she heard from current PTs and their schooling experience. I personally, have not heard great things about their program, it is the only AZ PT school that I chose not to apply to. I don't know if this helps or not because it's just what I heard from her briefly. She's been really disappointed because she has to enter into the cycle next year.... all over again.

I visited Franklin Pierce and chose not to apply there. I spoke to a few of the students and they weren't impressed with the program and the facility where they have their classes labs, practicals, etc. was average (did not see the cadaver lab).

Hey thanks for the response, may I ask if that student entered Franklin Pierce last year or an even earlier year before?

She started PT school this past August. So August of 2016, and has withdrawn.
