Wanting to be a Physical Therapist

I’m almost in my senior year in High School and I am thinking of going to college to be a Physical Therapist. I was just wondering how many years of college/education altogether you need to be a Physical Therapist?

    Right now, you have to get your Master’s degree to become a PT which usually takes most people 6 or 7 years. I think they are wanting to switch it so that all programs have to be doctorate programs eventually though. That probably won’t happen until after you get into a PT program though so you shouldn’t have to worry about it. Hope this helps.
