How to interpret this program
A strong program profile should help applicants separate source facts from practical fit questions.
Degree path
This is an entry-level doctoral pathway. Compare the added time and cost against fieldwork quality, capstone fit, faculty access, and local career return.
Format fit
Campus-based programs still vary by lab schedule, commute burden, fieldwork geography, and clinical specialty exposure. Ask for the weekly schedule and fieldwork map.
Accreditation runway
The next ACOTE review window is 2025/2026, so applicants should ask what has changed since the last review and whether the program expects any status updates.
NBCOT performance
Certification exam performance history
The OT Index stores the public NBCOT school-performance rows by program type and year, then links rows to ACOTE profiles when the school name can be matched.
No matched NBCOT row yet
This does not mean the program lacks NBCOT data. It means the current automated match did not find a public row with the same state, degree category, and institution name.
