Student reviews

Professors

Alumni

I am a recent alum from the Occupational Therapy Assistant Program. Honestly this program was excellent. Every course, test and skill check was applicable to my career, and for just 16 months of my life, I got what most would find in over 2 years. While not everything was perfect, I personally had a fantastic experience here.

Alumni

The courses are rigorous and time consuming, and not even a little bit of it was very easy. But, I feel equipped to enter the workforce and that’s all I could ask from a school. I passed the board exam and now have a job doing what I love thanks to Fox.
