Who is paying for these foolish school choices?
Physical Therapy is a "doctorate" degree. Entrance to Physical Therapy School is very competitive, and requires pre-requisites which are typically not offered in a "Radio TV Film" program. You are many years behind.

To go to school for PT, you don't need to have majored in anything specific for your bachelors degree. However, you need to have done certain pre-requisite classes, and experience, while you studied. It would be best if you could stay an extra term or two at your current school, and do them there - delay your graduation, so you could use your financial aid to cover these classes. But another option is to take these classes after you graduate - but you'd need to pay for them on your own, or via certain types of private student loans.
Go speak to the pre-health advisor on your campus. Find out what classes and experiences are needed to get into PT school, and how long they'd take you to get done. Then talk to your regular advisor about all this.
