Entry Level MSOT

The Entry Level MSOT curriculum is designed to help you build the necessary background to advance your career in occupational therapy.

The MSOT faculty uses various course formats to help you learn, including case studies, lecture/discussion, group projects and simulation exercises to ensure what you gain in one course will reinforce and build on what you learn in others.

Curriculum Overview

Applicants will undergo a transcript review to determine which additional undergraduate prerequisites must be completed prior to matriculation. See listing of prerequisite courses below.

A GPA of 3.0 for undergraduate studies that led to the granting of the baccalaureate degree is required.

The curriculum and course sequence for the three year entry-level, professional MSOT degree is under revision and going through the approval process. It is anticipated that students accepted to enter the program and begin their studies in August 2011 will progress through this new curriculum.
