Occupational Therapy Assistant Program Application Packet Rev. 7.12.17 1.

Dear Future Clinician, Thank you for taking the first step in changing your life by seeking interest into the Occupational Therapy Assistant program at Mountain View College!! We appreciate your interest and look forward to serving your educational needs into this exciting career! The material included in this packet will describe the admissions process to Mountain View College Occupational Therapy Assistant program and all the forms needed for application to the program. Mountain View College Occupational Therapy Assistant program is 24 months in length and leads to an Associates in Applied Science Degree (A.A.S.O.T.A) and prepares the graduate to take the National Board for Certification in Occupational Therapy (NBCOT) national examination to become a certified occupational therapy assistant (COTA). Graduates also meet the requirements for state licensure. Admission to the OTA Program is a separate procedure from admission to Mountain View College. Applicants must meet all the admission criteria for Mountain View College before submitting an application to the OTA program. The program is highly competitive as we are accepting between 12-14 students into the program this year. Admission to the OTA Program will be made on the applicant s ranking through a point system. The application process this year will begin July 13 th and end August 4 th (please refer to OTA website for exact dates). Applications will be accepted beginning July 17th and must be delivered by August 4th. If you have questions about the occupational therapy assistant program or the admissions process, please contact Dr. Candice Freeman (Program Director- Occupational Therapy Assistant Program 214-860-3605 or email her at candicefreeman@dcccd.edu. We look forward to working with you. Sincerely, Occupational Therapy Assistant Program Faculty Rev. 7.12.17 2.

General Information ACCREDITATION The curriculum is designed to meet the standards of the Accreditation Council for Occupational Therapy Education (ACOTE). ACOTE can be contacted at: Accreditation Council for Occupational Therapy Education, c/o Accreditation Department, American Occupational Therapy Association, 4720 Montgomery Lane, Suite 200, Bethesda, MD, 20814-3449, Phone: (301) 652-2682 (AOTA). The website for ACOTE is www.acoteonline.org. *Mountain View College is in the process of seeking Candidacy status to begin the OTA program. LOCATION Occupational therapy assistant courses are offered only at Mountain View College. ADMISSION A new class of students are admitted into the Occupational Therapy Assistant Program each fall. The program will accept 12-14 students the first year. Current dates for admission can be found in this packet. Late applications or inquiries will not be considered for admission. PROGRAM COURSES OTA courses are offered in a set sequence. Once admitted into the program, the student must progress through the curriculum as designed. This means a student cannot jump ahead in the curriculum and take advanced occupational therapy assistant courses. Prerequisite courses need to be completed by the start of the Occupational Therapy Assistant Program. GRADES The OTA program will follow the Nursing/Allied Health Department grading system listed below: 92%-100% = A 84%-91.9% = B 75%-83.9% = C 68%-74.9% = D 67% and below= F Students must earn a 75 or above in all OTA coursework in order to progress in the program. Rev. 7.12.17 3.

FEES Students will be responsible for cost of textbooks. An estimated cost of books will be available at boot camp (mandatory attendance required). In addition to books, students are responsible for cost associated with travel to and from fieldwork sites as well as attire for fieldwork. Other fees that students may incur are immunizations, drug screens, and background checks. DRESS CODE Student professional dress is expected for all classroom and clinical activities. CLASSROOM: Students are expected to wear navy blue scrubs (undershirts may be worn), closed toe shoes (no heels or boots) and college nametag. CLINICAL: During Level I fieldwork, students will wear polo/collared shirt and khaki pants and or scrubs (dependent on clinical site). Level II fieldwork sites usually specify their dress code and the student may have to purchase different sets of attire for each fieldwork. Nametags from either Mountain View College OTA program or the site specific nametag provided to the student should be worn at all times. *Instructors may request professional dress during presentations in or out of the classroom. Professional dress includes slacks (khaki), collar shirt/polo (tucked in), belt, closed toe shoes (no heels or boots), and name badge. No denim in any form is allowed. *Tattoos should be covered. Jewelry should be simple. Hair is to be neat and pulled back for labs. Students will be asked to wear the designated OTA professional dress for any community activities unless changes were made by a faculty member of the OTA program. CRIMINAL HISTORY BACKGROUND CHECK The student will be required to obtain a background check to meet requirements of the school and fieldwork education. Additional background checks may be required by fieldwork education sites. Costs associated with additional background checks are the responsibility of the student. Most states, including Texas, require licensure to practice. Texas licensure is based on successful completion of the NBCOT examination. A felony conviction may affect a graduate's ability to sit for the NBCOT examination or attain state licensure. Any form of charges or conviction results on a criminal background check may be cause for exclusion from admission to the program. If you have been convicted of a misdemeanor (excluding minor traffic violations) or a felony, it is your responsibility to contact the National Board for Certification in Occupational Therapy, Inc. at 301-990-7979, www.nbcot.org AND the Executive Council Rev. 7.12.17 4.

for Physical Therapy and Occupational Therapy 512-305-6900, www.ecptote.state.tx.us to determine your certification and licensure eligibility. It is you responsibility to have letters of verification sent directly to the program director from each of the above entities noting your eligibility in order for your application to be considered. These letters must be received by the program by the application deadline. IMMUNIZATIONS Students will be required to submit required proof of current immunizations. PERSONAL HEALTH INSURANCE Students are required to carry personal health insurance and show proof of insurance prior to enrollment in the OTA program. PROFESSIONAL LIABILITY INSURANCE Students enrolled in the OTA Program are required to have professional liability insurance. Students will pay this fee with their lecture courses. NOTE: The liability insurance that each student will have does not pay for injuries to the student- only for injuries to the patient. The student is completely responsible for personal medical costs incurred while at fieldwork sites. If a patient is injured by the student, the limited liability insurance may or may not cover all legal costs. CURRICULUM REQUIREMENTS The Occupational Therapy Assistant program provides basic knowledge and skills for entry-level entrance into the workforce. Upon satisfactory completion of this curriculum, the student will be awarded an Associate of Applied Science degree and will be eligible to sit for the national certification examination administered by the National Board for Occupational Therapy (NBCOT) to become a certified occupational therapy assistant (COTA). Courses in the OTA program must be taken in sequential order at the advisement of the program director and program faculty. Students may not jump ahead in the curriculum. A grade of C or better is required for satisfactory completion of all courses, including academic core courses. Rev. 7.12.17 5.
