Confirm exactly which components are online, which labs or practical exams require campus travel, and who is responsible for arranging fieldwork near your location.

Accreditation runway

The next ACOTE review window is 2032/2033, which gives this profile a longer published accreditation runway than programs with near-term reviews.

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.
