Get into OT School

If you know you want to be an occupational therapist but the OT school application process has you feeling overwhelmed, then this guide is for you!

OT school is getting more and more competitive every year. There are a lot of highly qualified candidates from all over the country fighting for a select number of spots. Often there are hundreds of applicants for only 30-40 openings in an OT program.

With all the competition and quality candidates you’re going up against, it’s harder than ever to stand out from the crowd. To get into OT school, you need to do everything you can to make your application as strong as possible.
