Do all programs have a white coat ceremony for OT?

I might be wrong but I believe it is only for OTD students.

Some OTD programs do it, not all though!

USC does it for their Master’s program

I think a lot of them have it or at least have a class pic with the long coat. Never wore it in practice. Looks dumb as heck.

From experience looking into it at schools I was considering (seems kind of silly, but I was curious too!), I know Ohio State and USC both have one! WashU has a "pinning ceremony" which is about the same thing, minus the white coat.

MCPHS does, all their programs do because it was originally a pharmacy school only. You are not technically required to wear it to class though
