Hello,

I was wondering what are some good OT schools that do not require the GRE? & how are their programs? Thanks!

Texas Tech! it's a masters program in the process of transitioning to an OTD program beginning May 2020. I'm completing my undergrad here at Tech and applying to their OT program now. It's an amazing school.

Brenau University in GA, MSOT. They are very well respected in the community. Every OT I have shadowed except one graduated from Brenau. And a lot of the staff are on the AOTA! (I’m a GA resident and am attending this fall)

Pacific university in Oregon does not require the GRE nor do they use OTCAs, though they are competitive and top notch - in my experience they care a lot about applicants holistically.

Want to highlight that for applicants to the NYU entry-level OTD program the GRE is required. There are no minimum scores, but the exam is still required.
