Admission Process | Master of Occupational Therapy

The Master of Occupational Therapy (MOT) Program provides you with the opportunity to enter the occupational therapy program in two ways. Choose the admission option that best applies to your situation.

Path One: Direct Admission

Direct admission entry provides select incoming first-time freshmen matriculating directly out of high school an opportunity to enter directly into the graduate phase of the program and receive a guaranteed MOT seat, provided progression standards and cohort requirements are met as outlined in the Carroll University catalog. The MOT program comprises six total years of study for students who are directly admitted (freshman level of entry) with any major.

• Students currently in high school can find more information about applying for the Master of Occupational Therapy (MOT) 4+2 Direct Admission program here.
• Students who are currently in Carroll's occupational therapy program and have direct admission status must still apply for progression into the master's program. 

Path Two: Competitive Admission

This admission process is for those with an undergraduate degree at an institution outside of Carroll or current Carroll undergraduate students who do not have direct admission status. Competitive Admission applicants are required to apply through the Occupational Therapist Centralized Application Service (OTCAS). Please reference www.otcas.org for more information.
