The Occupational Therapy Program at UW-L does not discriminate
regarding gender, race or ability. All applicants are encouraged
to apply. If you have a special need/accommodation to aid
your participation in our application process, please contact
the Occupational Therapy program at
otprogram@uwlax.edu to
make appropriate arrangements.
The Occupational Therapy Program admits one class of twenty-four
students each year. The admissions process is competitive
and not all applicants can be accomodated. Students with strong GPA’s and competitive portfolios will be
stronger candidates for admission. Some applicants may be
placed on an alternate list, in which case an admission decision will
be made later in the spring semester - approx. mid-March through
late-April. There will be notification of a final
admission decision no later than May 1 of the admission year.
Please be aware that a felony charge may affect your ability to obtain fieldwork placements and/or sit for the board examination.
