Hello all!
I am looking for perspective and any insight on making a career change from the business world to OT. I graduated in 2015 with a B.S. in Resource Economics, with a business concentration. This major was a part of our School of Social Behavioral Sciences and revolved around using economic principles to make decisions in business. Throughout my internships and work experiences, I have worked in HR, Marketing, Events and Sales.
After hours of thought, research and reflection I have decided the path I am on is not fulfilling nor the right fit. I have landed on OT and am exploring it as a new career and would appreciate any and all input given this career change will require time, study and finances.
With my undergrad, work experience and lack of pre reqs (anatomy &physiology, abnormal psych, etc...) in mind how likely would it be that I be accepted into a program? What types of things can I do to prepare? What would you advise be my plan of action?
Also very interested to know what led you to enter the OT field!
Thank you for any input!
