Honestly, it doesn’t matter what major you choose. OT schools accept people from all sorts of majors. I have seen dance, art, biology, kinesiology, recreational therapy, psychology, etc.

So pick a major that you like. Just make sure you complete the prerequisite classes for the OT program at the school you want to attend. For example, most schools require a specific psychology class, anatomy and physiology, etc etc. check the school website for this list and make a checklist so that you complete them before applying.

Also, keep your grades up. OT school is getting harder and harder to get into every year.
