The Graduate Record Exam (GRE) is not required for application. All students in the School of Occupational Therapy must possess the essential skills and behaviors required of a professional therapist. Therefore, all occupational therapy students must possess the essential qualifications, referred to as Technical Standards; your application to this program indicates that you have read the Technical Standards and are qualified to meet them.
The Technical Standards are found at: http://catalog.husson.edu/collegeofhealthandpharmacy/undergraduate/occupationaltherapy/
