Does anybody have any suggestions on covering tuition in occupational therapy doctoral programs?

I already have a bunch of loans from undergrad..
 
My advice is to work in a non profit setting, such as a hospital, or school district. Participate in the SAVE student loan program and the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program. Once you make 10 years of minimum income adjusted payments your student loans will be discharged. You can calculate your minimum payments and figure out how much will be discharged here:

Public Service Loan Forgiveness Calculator | LendingTree

The Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) program allows student loan borrowers who work in certain career fields, such as nonprofit or government, to have their federal student loans forgiven after approximately 10 years of repayment.
