Transfer Students

Students interested in transferring into the Graduate Occupational Therapy Program from another occupational therapy program may do so at the discretion of the Program director depending on the student’s qualifications, reason for transfer, and available seats. Transfer students must adhere to Sacred Heart University’s residency and course grade requirements for transferring into graduate programs (See Transfer of Credits and Residency Requirements in the Graduate Admissions section of Sacred Heart University’s Graduate Catalog). Only graduate level courses taken within the past six years from a regionally accredited college or university are eligible for consideration of transfer credits. The student must have earned a minimum grade of B or better for transfer credit. Students interested in transferring into the graduate occupational therapy program must meet admission criteria and complete an application with the Office of Graduate Admissions. Transfer students must meet the admission requirements of the Graduate Program in Occupational Therapy; and if there are available openings in the program, an interview will be required.

 

Applicants must provide to the Program Director course syllabi for all courses to be considered for transfer to assure that the course meets the Program's content requirements. The Program Director, in consultation with faculty, will determine if the course meet content and graduate level requirements.
