Clinical Doctorate of Occupational Therapy The Clinical Doctorate of Occupational Therapy (OTD) prepares graduates beyond the master's degree with in-depth knowledge in a specific area such as practice, advocacy, policy, education, research and program development. Doctoral students actively engage in leadership experiences to develop capacity as a change agent in professional practice and develop in-depth knowledge in their practice areas. They learn to analyze the role of occupational therapy across the service delivery continuum for individuals, groups and populations and design an occupational therapy model for a specific client population. In the second year of study, doctoral students start developing their advanced practice skillset and the ability to participate in scholarly work. They may choose from multiple concentrations such as productive aging, social participation and the environment, children and youth, work and industry, neurorehabilitation and rehabilitation science. Click here to view the OTD curriculum grid. Graduates enter careers in clinical practice, teaching, research, consultation, clinical services, and management and policy with the following competencies to: Use evidence to inform occupational therapy assessment and intervention across the continuum of care Develop community programming Exercise sound, professional judgement and clinical reasoning Value and encourage interprofessional collaboration Promote an inclusive culture of humility and sensitivity Use current technologies and informatics Lead change in practice Participate in scholarly work to advance practice Create a model of assessment and intervention for a specific population   In addition to six months of full-time fieldwork supervised by experienced clinicians, OTD students focus on their specialty area and complete the 14-week doctoral capstone for a total of 106 credit hours over a three-year period. The OTD degree program is a 36-month, full-time program. With an OTD degree, you will be eligible to sit for the NBCOT examination to become a practicing occupational therapist. The exam is administered by the National Board for Certification in Occupational Therapy (NBCOT), located at One Bank Street, Suite 300, Gaithersburg, MD 20878. NBCOT’s phone number is (301) 990-7979 and its web address is www.nbcot.org. See our NBCOT Pass Rate.

Button Important message regarding admission requirements:  Due to COVID-19 restrictions and precautions at OT-related experience and observation sites, we are providing alternate options for prospective students to fulfill requirements. Click here to learn more about these opportunities. Admission Requirements Applicants must possess personal qualities of character, integrity and motivation, as well as the capacity to perform essential functions suitable for a career in occupational therapy. All applicants must successfully pass a drug screening, criminal background check, and family and child services review. The admissions committee takes the following factors into consideration: 1. Undergraduate education A baccalaureate degree from an accredited college/university or enrollment in an affiliated 3-2 program (becomes a 3-3 with an OTD) and satisfactory completion of all prerequisite coursework. Prerequisite courses can be taken online or outside of the degree-granting school, as long as they are from an accredited institution. Advanced placement (AP) courses and test scores do not count for prerequisites. The following six prerequisite courses (3 semester hours each or equivalent if on quarter system) must be completed with grades of B or better and at least four of the six courses must be complete at time of application: Abnormal Psychology An abnormal psychology or a psychopathology course fulfills this requirement. Developmental Psychology You may choose a child development or a lifespan course that includes learning principles and motor, language, cognitive, emotional and social development. Life Science Must be 200 level or above; no lab is required. Suggested courses include but are not limited to human anatomy, neuroanatomy, comparative anatomy, pathophysiology, zoology, genetics, botany, ecology and cognitive neuroscience. Physiology Must cover the organization of cells into tissues, organs and organ systems in humans. A course titled “Anatomy and Physiology” is acceptable; however, if the course is part of a two-part sequence, both courses must be completed to be able to fulfill prerequisites. One part can fulfill the life science prerequisite, with the second part for the physiology prerequisite. Social Science Suggested courses include, but are not limited to, other psychology courses, sociology, anthropology, economics, political science, public health, epidemiology, gerontology and urban studies. Statistics You may choose behavioral, educational, psychological or mathematical statistics. Business statistics does not fulfill this requirement. 2. Pre-requisite and cumulative GPA A grade of B or better is required for all pre-requisite courses, and a 3.25 cumulative GPA is required for the MSOT and OTD programs. 3. Recommendations Three letters of recommendation are required from: A professor, teacher, or academic advisor. A person who can speak to your clinical potential, such as someone who supervised you during an OT-related experience or worked with you in a setting related to health care or populations related to OT.  A person of your choice, other than a relative or family friend, who can speak objectively about your strengths. A work supervisor or another teacher is recommended. 4. OT-related experience A minimum of 30 in-person hours of occupational therapy-related experience or observation is required. We encourage applicants to visit different sites to experience the diversity of the OT practice. Activities such as volunteering as a camp counselor for children with disabilities or working as an aide at an assisted living facility count toward this requirement as they provide exposure to populations that interface with OT. It is strongly recommended, but not required, that a portion of the hours include observation with one or more occupational therapists. We also encourage you to supplement these types of experiences with non-traditional OT-related hours, which could include written reflection on books, podcasts, movies, website and alumni interviews, etc. Explore these resources and see this page for more details on how to document. 5. Understanding of OT and strong writing skills Applicant should answer the personal statement prompt provided by OTCAS. The statement should reflect knowledge of OT as gained through observations and other experiences, as well as strong writing skills and articulation of goals for the future. There is no set word minimum or maximum. 6. Life experience Please complete the portions of the OTCAS application regarding extracurricular experience fully even if you mention activities in other places, such as your personal statement. 7. Video interview Following the processing of your application, you will receive an email from the Program in Occupational Therapy with a link to complete a three-question, asynchronous video interview. The questions are designed to better understand your interpersonal and problem-solving skills. 8. International students TOEFL (and TWE, if Paper-Based Test) should be taken no more than one year prior to application. Transcripts from universities outside the United States must be reviewed by a credentialing agency. Click here for more information.
