The Department of Occupational Therapy in the College of Applied Sciences and Arts is pleased to announce that its Occupational Therapy Master’s program has received a 10 year accreditation by the Accreditation Council for Occupational Therapy Education (ACOTE).

The ACOTE writes, “because the cited areas of noncompliance have been fully resolved within one year of ACOTE’s accreditation action, ACOTE further voted to grant a three-year extension of the accreditation term previously awarded. Therefore, the next on-site evaluation of the occupational therapy master’s program has been moved to the 2025/2026 academic year and the program’s Interim Report due date adjusted to spring 2020. A revised ACOTE Certificate of Accreditation that reflects the extension of the accreditation term will be forwarded to the program director.”

Congratulations to Winifred Schultz-Krohn, Occupational Therapy Department Director and faculty who worked tirelessly on this accreditation effort.
