Career Outcomes

Why VU?
To become licensed as a Registered Occupational Therapist (OTR), you are required to have a Master’s Degree from an approved occupational therapy program.  IUPUI and USI offer these programs.  Our program is closely aligned with both IUPUI and USI’s Bachelor’s Degree requirements.  You would complete your first two years of courses at Vincennes University, transfer and complete your Bachelor’s Degree, and then apply to IUPUI or USI. For more information about becoming an Occupational Therapist, click here.

The VU Advantage

• You’ll have access to lab equipment that, at four-year schools, is normally reserved for students at the junior or senior level.
• Small class sizes mean you don’t have to compete with several other students for lab time and equipment.
• The faculty member who teaches the lecture session also teaches the lab section.  This ensures that instruction is consistent and gives you plenty of time with your professors to build close relationships.
• Free tutoring is also available through the University’s study skills laboratory.
