Track II - Post

Track II Post B.A./B.S. or OTA Plan

Designed for students that have a bachelor's degree in an area other than occupational therapy. It is also designed for those who have an associate’s degree in occupational therapy (OTA). Students with OTAs must demonstrate the ability to complete undergraduate course work as required to obtain a bachelor’s degree (128 credits) before entering graduate occupational therapy course work. These students may apply and begin the Track II program upon completion of an occupational therapy fundamentals course. This track takes 2.5 years to complete with an occupational therapy fundamentals course followed by five (5) semesters of academic course work and 24 weeks of Level II Fieldwork experiences.
