4) Contact each school directly and make an appoint to visit with the admissions staff. They should give you a tour of the school and answer any questions you have.
5) If you are still interested in the program, make an appointment to observe a class in session. Don't be afraid to ask questions of the students and instructors after class. This step should help you determine what school "feels" the best to you.

Massage School Selection Tips
Accreditation and recognition of the college is critical if you are seeking financial aid. If the college is not recognized then a student will not be able to receive any form of financial aid. Lack of recognition and accreditation in some areas may cause you to be ineligible for state licensing, although this is not a concern in Pennsylvania. Look for massage therapy colleges that are accredited by a reputable accreditation organization like COMTA. Accreditation guarantees that a massage therapy college is consistent with the highest standard of excellence in passing on the educational instruction.
The course schedule should be well suited with your schedule. A lot of the massage therapy colleges do not have courses for part-time students, if they do, the classes may be offered in the morning or evening. Plan on adjusting your schedule to when the college offers the courses.
