Choosing a Great Occupational Therapy School for Your Bachelor's Degree
Your choice of occupational therapy for getting your bachelor's degree school matters. Important measures of a quality occupational therapy program can vary widely even among the top schools. Below we explain some of the most important factors to consider before making your choice:
Overall Quality Is a Must
The overall quality of a bachelor's degree school is important to ensure a quality education, not just how well they do in a particular major. To account for this we include a college's overall Best Colleges ranking which itself looks at a host of various factors like degree completion, educational resources, student body caliber and post-graduation earnings for the school as a whole.
Other Factors We Consider
The metrics below are just some of the other metrics that we use to determine our rankings.
- Major Focus - How many resources a school devotes to occupational therapy students as compared to other majors.
- Major Demand - How many other occupational therapy students want to attend this school to pursue a bachelor's degree.
- Educational Resources - How many resources are allocated to students. These resources may include educational expenditures per student, number of students per instructor, and graduation rate among other things.
- Accreditation - Whether a school is regionally accredited and/or accredited by a recognized occupational therapy related body.
Our full ranking methodology documents in more detail how we consider these factors to identify the best colleges for occupational therapy students working on their bachelor's degree.
