However, you must also meet the prerequisite courses as designated by the school to which you hope to apply. Choosing something like interior design might be possible...but consider all the coursework you still need to take for PT and it could mean it will take you 5-6 years for your bachelor's...add another 3 years on top for PT school and that's a lot of education. A FEW schools require that you actually have a BS as opposed to a BA, so be sure to check out the requirements for the school you hope to attend.
