Hello OT community,

My SO is very interested in becoming an OT. I'm applying to PT school and I know we have PTCAS where you can easily reference the prerequisite courses and average accepted GPAs for most schools. Is there a similar link for OT prereqs and GPAs? If not, what do most of them look for for prereqs and GPAs?

Thanks!

Your SO can either reference the AOTA website (https://www.aota.org/Education-Careers/Find-School.aspx) to find individual schools information, or they can go through OTCAS. Many of the schools are accepting applications through OTCAS, but not all.
