Bachelor of Science (BS) to Advanced Standing MS or OTD Degree The combined BS/MS or BS/OTD program allows students to complete a bachelor's degree at UNH and smoothly transition into an entry-level OT graduate program (Master of Science (MS) or Clinical Doctorate (OTD). To practice as an Occupational Therapist (OT) in the U.S., you need an MS or an OTD from an ACOTE-accredited program. Our BS in OT curriculum provides a strong foundation in the liberal arts, biological, behavioral and health sciences for the first three years.
