I don't normally like to publicize my stats or any personal information. But I've seen a lot of these and they seem to have a lot of positive and informative feedback.

Graduated CSU
Overall GPA: 3.25
PreReqs GPA: 3.5(?)
GRE: 149V, 151Q Writing: 4.5
Add. Info: 60+ hours at hand therapy clinics + 16 hours at OT pediatrics clinic
Been working as a behavioral therapist since April 2012.

My stats aren't strong and I want to know which programs are willing to accept me. 🙁
Any feedback will be greatly appreciated. Thank you & Happy Holidays.
 
I had similar stats except I never took GRE I got accepted to five schools. Of course by no means these schools were the top ones in the nation , but I am sure you will get in somewhere you want to go.

This is the five I got into

Rockhurst University
Bay Path College
Touro University Nevada (attending now)
D'Youville College
University of Minnesota
 
I had a lower overall GPA (3.00) and got into USC and SJSU, the only two schools I applied to. I didn't do so great as an undergrad, worked a few years, came back to school for the prereqs and did well and explained how I had matured and knew OT was what I truly wanted to do. Not sure when you are applying but if you don't get in this cycle then work your butt off to show you are serious about entering this field, if anybody is forgiving and understanding of a mediocre GPA I'd think it would be an OT admissions board so long as you are able to explain yourself.

i have very mediocre stats as well although I think you're underestimating yours

devchonka you got into touro, that gives me some hope. If you don't mind can you post some stats? I would like to go there
