Physical Therapy Program Makes Significant Strides in the U.S. News & World Report Rankings

The School of Medicine and Health Sciences is proud to report that the Physical Therapy program, which is part of the Health Sciences programs, rose in the US News & World Report rankings from 95th to 51st, putting the program in the 23rd percentile.  Additionally, the SMHS research ranking rose, due to an increase grant funding.

While we recognize that different organizations release various rankings and surveys every year and they are one indicator among many that help parents and prospective students decide which higher education institution is right for them, we are very pleased with our rise in the rankings.

The George Washington University continually strives to improve academic excellence and the university experience for all our students.
