Hey guys,

For those few of you on here who may still be in high school or something, I actually found an OT bachelor's program in NV. You have to complete a specific associate of science degree at the College of Southern Nevada and then transfer to the Nevada State College bachelor's in occupational science program. I found it difficult to find any OT BS programs left so I thought i'd share with everyone, here is the link:

This is a degree in Occupational Science, which isn't Occupational Therapy per se. While this type of degree would be very helpful to prepare for a degree in occupational therapy, you still need to complete a master's program from an accredited OT program in order to become an occupational therapist as of 2007.

P.S. It also looks like this program has been discontinued as of 2011.

Ah I see, I didn't know you HAVE to have a master's now, I thought there were a few BS programs left out there somewhere..

Yes, you can visit the AOTA website to find all of the ACOTE accredited OT programs throughout the US.
