Pre-Occupational Therapy

The pre-occupational therapy program at Dickinson State University has been developed to articulate with the University of North Dakota program. Students may take one or two years at Dickinson State University before applying for admission to the professional component at UND. Application must be made during the last year of attendance at Dickinson State University. In addition to the completion of required coursework, the pre-occupational therapy student is advised to volunteer in a local occupational therapy department. Admission to any professional program is the prerogative of the faculty of the institution offering that professional program and Dickinson State University cannot guarantee admission. Contact the Department of Natural Sciences for specific curriculum.
