The <a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/rehabilitation-sciences-technology\/academics\/ms-occupational-therapy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">51ÁÔÆæ Graduate Program in Occupational Therapy<\/a> requires a 3.00 GPA for admission with full graduate standing. <em>Admission to graduate programs is competitive and a 3.00 does not guarantee admission.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is important to work with the Pre-Occupational Therapy (Pre-OT) advisor (Kenzie Kougl, MS) beginning in freshman year or upon entry to the OST Degree Program in order to plan all needed activities into your college career. Having the Pre-OT designation on your transcript record will allow you access to key information about 51ÁÔÆæ OT Program information sessions, assistance with your application, student organizations, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you plan on pursuing a career after graduation, consider employment in the area of activities, disability, healthcare, insurance, life enrichment, special education or other areas. The <a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/set\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">51ÁÔÆæ Student Experience &amp; Talent (SET)<\/a> provides many services to help you prepare and secure employment during school and after graduation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Use <a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/onestop\/your-student-record\/graduation\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">51ÁÔÆæ\u2019s Graduation website<\/a> to review campus-wide graduation requirements, graduation application deadlines, application for graduation, and ordering your cap and gown.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"secondary\" class=\"uwm-l-col uwm-l-col--4 uwm-l-offset--1 content-area\">\n            <nav aria-label=\"Section\" class=\"uwm-p-navigation-list uwm-p-navigation-list--gold-border uwm-u-mb-40\">\n                <div class=\"uwm-p-navigation-list--title\">\n                    <a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/rehabilitation-sciences-technology\/academics\/bs-occupational-science-technology\/\">Occupational Science &amp;
