What major would be best fit if I want to pursue Occupational Therapy, what scholarships are there to apply to in this field, and where would I go after a 4 year establishment to continue that goal?
Ever since I was small I knew I wanted to be an Occupational Therapist, and I’m having a tricky time seeing what majors is the best fit to pursue. Considering how expensive this field can be to pursue, I’m in need of some scholarships to make that happen.

Greetings,
I am a Physical Therapist, but I have had the honor of working with, learning from, and becoming great friends with many OT's.
I found this information on the AOTA website.
"Examples of what other students have majored in at the undergraduate level include biology, kinesiology, psychology, sociology, anthropology, liberal arts, and anatomy. It is important that you contact the educational programs to which you are interested in applying and make sure you have taken the necessary prerequisites for admission into their programs."
-- The undergrad degree with as many of your required prerequisites helps save $. OT is a solid career choice with unlimited potential for professional growth, in which you can make a difference in the lives of people.
