pt Health RMT Student’s Choice Program

Get Financial Assistance for Your RMT Education

The pt Health RMT Student’s Choice program is designed to assist Massage Therapy students who are entering their final year of study of Massage Therapy at a certified institution. Eligibility to participate in this program is not based solely upon scholastic standing but rather on a well-rounded application where the student demonstrates academic and clinical excellence with a commitment to private practice in a rehabilitative setting. This program allows students to choose what their preferred plan is to assist with the financial burdens of finishing school and completing the qualifying examinations.

Option 1: Our Loan Repayment Plan

The loan repayment plan allows the successful student to receive a specific amount per month towards their student loan while employed with pt Health, for a maximum of 3 years, valued at over $7,000.00 in payments.
