University of St. Augustine

Located on Florida's pristine northeast coast, the University of St. Augustine for Health Sciences has established a reputation for providing an educational experience that prepares health care providers for career success. Founded in 1979, The University consists of two distinctly separate divisions: the Division of First Professional Studies, for those pursuing careers in physical therapy and occupational therapy, and the Division of Post-Professional Studies for those who already have a professional qualifying degree and license in their respective profession and wish to advance their knowledge and skills. Beginning in 1994, the University was the first independent and proprietary school of physical therapy to offer a professional degree in physical therapy—the MPT degree. The University is committed to online and Web-based distance learning activities and has successfully conducted programs as far away as Iceland, Chile and Japan.
