EARN A DEGREE THAT MAKES A DIFFERENCE
Learn how our Flex Occupational Therapy degree programs can work for you.
Occupational Therapy is a career in improving people’s lives, helping clients of all ages overcome physical, developmental, emotional and/or social deficits. With our Flex learning model, you can earn your MOT in three years, or your OTD degree in four years. They are the same degree as the residential programs, but structured to fit your current lifestyle and busy schedule.
The USAHS Flex Master of Occupational Therapy and Flex Doctor of Occupational Therapy degree programs are extended versions of our Residential OT programs. Our unique and proven hybrid learning model combines distance learning with on-campus, face-to-face laboratory classes.
Learn online at your own pace, studying when and where you want during the week—then meet with fellow students on campus during select weekends for hands-on instruction, lab time, and simulation-based learning with our expert faculty.*
