Master’s Occupational Therapy Fellowships
The program in Occupational Therapy offers a number of competitive academic fellowships for students with very strong academic, personal, and practical achievements. Selection of candidates will be determined by the fellowship committee. Award amounts range from $200 to $2,000 per scholarship. The fellowship committee will be composed of three faculty members. Preference for awards varies depending on a number of variables including but not limited to:
- Academic class
- Brilliance of required essays
- Academic excellence
- Potential for contribution to the profession
- Financial need
- Residency
- Commitment to complete a third Level II fieldwork course
You are considered for most Occupational Therapy fellowships when you apply for admission. Priority consideration is given to students who submit the admission application by the priority application deadline. Those who apply after that date will be considered on a funds-available basis.
