In North Dakota one must meet all the following to apply for licensure:
- Be of good moral character.
- Complete the application process.
- Be a graduate of a professional physical therapy education program accredited by a national accreditation agency approved by the board.
- Pass the examination approved by the board.
"An applicant for licensure who does not pass the examination on the first attempt may retake the examination one additional time without reapplication for licensure within six months of the first failure. Before the board may approve an applicant for subsequent testing beyond two attempts, an applicant shall reapply for licensure and shall submit evidence satisfactory to the board of having successfully completed additional clinical training or coursework, or both, as the board determines."
"If the board determines that an applicant or examinee has engaged, or has attempted to engage, in conduct that subverts or undermines the integrity of theexamination process, the board may disqualify the applicant from taking the
examination."
"Licensure by endorsement. The board shall issue a license to a physical therapist or physical therapist assistant who has a license in good standing from another jurisdiction that imposes requirements for obtaining and maintaining a license which are at least as stringent as the requirements imposed in this state."
