Program-Specific Info / Q's Current Students Thoughts on BU

[HopefullyOTRachel]

I recently got accepted to BU and as someone who isn't necessarily research focused, I am wondering how current students like the program, and if they went in with a more research focused mindset, or if they were interested in the more hands on application of OT school? I'm struggling with the financial costs, and weighing them with the curriculum, but it is hard to tell how the school actually is from an outsiders perspective. Any insight would be very much appreciated!

it is definitely focused on research more than clinical situations, at least for the first year

How do you like the lifecourse perspective in the curriculum? And what made you choose BU?
