Physical Therapy Licensure Compact

The PT Compact allows physical therapists and physical therapist assistants to practice in member states through a Compact Privilege, without obtaining additional state licenses.

Connecticut is not a PT Compact member state. You will need to apply for a Connecticut PT license by endorsement, regardless of whether you hold a compact license in another state.
