Occupational Therapy (OTD)

No advance sign-up is required for this initiative!

Some SHRS graduate programs have enrollment limits due to accreditation requirements or restricted availability of clinical placements. To maintain program quality and meet professional training standards, we cap the number of seats available through SAGP. As a result, not all qualified applicants may be assured admission—even within participating programs.

No additional materials are required beyond the standard full application (transcripts, essays, recommendation letters, shadowing hours, etc.) for your program of interest. Simply follow the application instructions outlined by the program and be sure to submit all required materials by the SAGP deadline, if one is specified.

Programs with limited enrollment—often due to the availability of clinical placements—may require an early application deadline. This helps ensure that your application is reviewed while there are still seats available.

Yes, all Pitt students who meet the criteria are eligible, regardless of the campus they attend. Please share your interest with an enrollment specialist at enroll@shrs.pitt.edu.
