Associate in Science

Pre-Occupational Therapy, A.S.

This plan of study was developed as a guideline for students who plan to transfer to a four-year institution to complete baccalaureate degree requirements prior to applying for admission to a graduate Occupational Therapy program. Students preparing for a career in Occupational Therapy should identify an intended transfer institution and major, plus meet with their assigned advisor to plan an individualized program of study. Some courses in this program may not be available at all College locations. Upon completion of courses listed below, the transcript will reflect either an AA or AS degree without reference to the specific program of study.
