Bachelor of Science in Rehabilitation Science

Program Overview

The Bachelor of Science in Rehabilitation Science (BSRS) degree is the first step in pursuing your career in occupational or physical therapy. The BSRS Accelerated Program offers a focused education that meets the prerequisites for entering our Master of Occupational Therapy (MOT), Occupational Therapy Doctorate entry-level (OTDe), or Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) Program. In the BSRS Accelerated Program, you will get the skills and knowledge that will prepare you for a successful transition from undergraduate to graduate studies at CUW.

Pre-OT Students

If you are a Pre-OT student, you can apply for CUW’s MOT Program during your sophomore year and begin the graduate coursework your junior year. What does that mean for you? By combining the two programs, you will graduate with a bachelor and master’s in 4 ½ years! If you opt for the OTDe degree, you can be finished with both the bachelor and doctoral degree in five years. Our faculty and staff will help you choose the path that best suits your individual goals and needs.

Pre-PT Students

If you are a Pre-PT student, you would apply to the DPT Program your junior year and begin the Program your senior year. This option allows students to complete the DPT degree in 6 rather than 7 years. This option is open to students who enter CUW as freshmen and take all their science prerequisite coursework at Concordia University. If you pursue admission through the accelerated process, you will receive a Bachelor of Science in Rehabilitation Science after completing your fourth year of academic study at Concordia University.
