Notes

  • All students must submit a non-refundable confirmation fee of $500 to the occupational therapy program, to reserve a seat in the incoming class prior to their first fall semester.  Upon matriculation into the OTD program, this fee will be applied to fall semester tuition.
  • In some cases, out-of-state students may be able to apply for in-state residency, which offers a lower tuition cost. Review how to apply for in-state residency.
