Reciprocity

South Carolina does not share reciprocity with any other state.

South Carolina generally grants licensure by endorsement to applicants from another state if the applicant is a graduate of an accredited physical therapy program, has a score on the National Physical Therapy Examination that meets South Carolina's passing level and holds a current license in good standing in another state. Appropriate Board application forms and fees must be submitted.

For information on requirements in a particular state, contact that Board office.
