Working as a PT outside the state you went to school

When considering schools I am curious how much of a difference it makes going to a school in a state where you would eventually want to work/live. Is it easy to move out of state after graduating and acquiring a job in a different state?

Thank you!

it was easy for me in 1991. School in Iowa, worked in Kansas/Missouri. I kept my license current from Iowa for a couple years, then let it go.

Not hard at all. You can take the NPTE through one state and then immediately apply for a license in another state. I went to school in Florida and immediately moved to Texas. It's not hard to get a license.
