4 OT Program Mission Statement The Occupational Therapy (OT) Program s mission is to prepare competent, reflective, and ethical occupational therapists whose practice philosophy is client-centered, occupation-based, and grounded in evidence. In keeping with the University mission to prepare graduates for successful careers in an evolving and interconnected world, the OT Program incorporates interprofessional learning to enable graduates to practice in diverse environments and changing service-delivery contexts. The curriculum is organized around three themes that reflect the program s philosophy. Participation encompasses client-centered practice and is grounded in the person-environmentoccupation perspective. Evidence and Professional Reasoning inform practice decisions and contribute to the profession s distinct value. Collaboration and Innovation reflect Philadelphia University s unique teaching-learning philosophy that engages students in creative partnerships to enhance clients well-being and quality of life. It is further enriched through a curricular thread, Professional Identity, which is integrated within the student s program of study. Students are supported in the development of a professional identity through a series of regular processes that are grounded in advocacy, volunteerism, and professionalism. Occupational Therapy Program Outcomes The Philadelphia University entry-level master s degree in occupational therapy program prepares competent and reflective occupational therapists who possess a commitment to professionalism and lifelong learning. Graduates will demonstrate the ability to: Provide occupation-based and client-centered care by competently applying and adapting the occupational therapy process Demonstrate the attitudes, behaviors and responsibilities associated with being a health professional (e.g. effective communication, respect for diversity, ethical practice) Apply and integrate evidence-based methods to facilitate outcomes, build knowledge, and inform occupational therapy practice Partner with stakeholders to address the health and participation needs of individuals, groups and populations. Develop innovative tools, programs, and services to promote participation and well-being. Occupational Therapy Program Academic Standards The Occupational Therapy Program admission criteria are designed to select candidates who are most likely to succeed both in the university academic environment as well as in OT professional practice. While the Program faculty is dedicated to assisting students in their professional education, the student also has responsibilities. Students enrolled in the program must demonstrate achievement in academic and clinical competencies necessary for professional practice, and meet academic standards consistent with graduate school criteria. Students must also demonstrate effective professional behavior as detailed in the Fieldwork Readiness Behavior Development Form (refer to OT Student Center on BlackBoard, Student Handbook ). Retention and Progression In order to remain in good academic standing, students must meet the following standards. These academic standards are in addition to the university academic standards as described in the University Student Handbook, Graduate Catalog and on the Philadelphia University web site. The student s cumulative academic record is reviewed at the end of each semester, including summer, to evaluate PhilaU MSOT Applicant Handbook, /7 Page
5 academic standing and satisfactory progress toward degree requirements. The Program Director will notify the student when problems in academic performance may jeopardize a student s good standing. The maximum time for completion of the degree program is.5 years from the date of first enrollment. Students who have not earned the graduate degree during this period will have their academic records reviewed and may be asked to meet additional requirements in order to graduate. Academic & Professional Conduct In order to remain in good academic standing, students must meet the following standards. These academic and conduct standards are in addition to the university academic standards as described in the University Student Handbook, University Catalog and on the University web site. a. Maintain a minimum semester grade point average (GPA) of.0 in Occupational Therapy coursework. b. Maintain a minimum cumulative grade point average of.0. (Graduation eligibility requires minimum overall.0 GPA.) c. Receive no more than one grade below B- while in the OT Program. (A second grade below B- will result in dismissal.) d. Repeat core course when C (.0) grade is earned. While the grade of C is regarded as a minimum passing grade, it is judged as unsatisfactory performance. Students who earn a C grade in a core course must decelerate, and repeat the course before proceeding in the full time program (see Deceleration below). Students who are unable to earn a minimum B (.0) in a repeat course will be dismissed from the program. A course can be repeated only once. e. Demonstrate appropriate professional behavior and conduct (refer to Standards of Professional Behavior and Conduct in the OT Student Handbook. Fieldwork a. Students must attain a minimum overall.0 GPA prior to enrolling in Level II fieldwork courses. b. Students must successfully complete Level II fieldwork within 5 months beyond the date of completion of didactic coursework. In instances where there is more than months of inactivity, faculty may require students to engage in competencies and/or other learning activities to assure fieldwork readiness. c. Students must receive satisfactory reports and evaluations from all fieldwork educators to receive fieldwork credit ( CR ). d. Failure to complete a fieldwork, student withdrawal, or having to be removed from a placement may result in a student s dismissal from the program. Students who need to repeat more than one Level II fieldwork due to unsatisfactory performance will be dismissed from the program. e. If a grade of NC (no credit) is obtained in a fieldwork, faculty determines whether the student is permitted to repeat the fieldwork, or be dismissed from the program. If permission to repeat the fieldwork is granted, the student must develop a written plan of self-correction prior to being placed in another fieldwork. f. A fieldwork may be repeated only once, and the student must achieve a CR (credit) grade on the second attempt. The decision to permit a student to repeat fieldwork is dependent on fieldwork educator s verbal or written reports about student behavior with respect to adherence to site regulations, site schedule, ethical standards of conduct, or engagement in behavior that puts patient/ client safety at risk. g. Students receiving a NC grade, including W (withdrawal) in fieldwork will receive an academic warning. The student must re-register and repeat the fieldwork in order to progress in the program. Repetition of a fieldwork could delay graduation. Withdrawal for medical or personal reasons, approved by program faculty, will not result in a warning. h. A student must earn a grade of CR in all fieldwork in order to graduate. Academic Warnings PhilaU MSOT Applicant Handbook, /7 Page 5
6 Academic warnings are issued to students when their records are unsatisfactory, while there is still time to remedy the situation. Students will receive academic warnings when their records indicate that typical progress toward a degree may be in jeopardy. Students should meet with their advisors to discuss plans for improving their academic performance. Students whose academic records include one or more of the following will receive an academic warning from the Program Director: a. Semester grade point average (GPA) below.0 (OT Program GPA is compsrised of all OT courses taken, beginning with the semester that the student enters the professional phase of the OT Program.) b. Cumulative GPA below.0. c. Grade below B- in one course d. Withdrawing from a course for academic reasons e. While the grade of C is regarded as a minimum passing grade, it is judged as unsatisfactory performance. Students who earn a C grade in core courses must decelerate, and repeat the course before proceeding in the full time program (see Deceleration below). f. Verbal or written reports from fieldwork educators indicating non-adherence to site regulations, site schedule, ethical standards of conduct, or engagement in behavior that puts patient/ client safety at risk. g. A student who violates the OT Program s Standards of Professional Conduct or the AOTA Code of Ethics (most recent edition). This information may be reviewed by the Academic and Professional Standards Review Committee for action, depending upon the circumstances. Students who receive academic warnings will be required to improve their academic performance by the end of the next enrolled semester. Details will be provided in writing to the student upon academic warning notification. Deceleration a. Deceleration means that the student may not progress in the full time program. Students decelerate when they receive a C (.0) in any core course (Functional Anatomy, Applied Neuroanatomy, Assessment & Intervention courses (Children & Youth; Adult), and Psychosocial Interventions [or their equivalent]). Students must repeat the course and earn a minimum B (.0) in order to proceed in the program. Students who are unsuccessful with remediation activities will be dismissed. Students can decelerate once. b. Since the program is a lock-step curriculum, a course that was not successfully completed cannot be repeated until the following year. A second deceleration results in dismissal. Dismissal Students whose academic records include any of the following will be dismissed from the program. a. Cumulative grade point average below.0 for any two semesters b. Academic warnings in two consecutive seemsters, or any three semesters c. A grade below B- in more than one course d. A grade of F or NC in a non-fieldwork course e. Grade of NC in two fieldwork courses f. Failure to correct deficiencies outlined in academic warning notice. g. Failure to earn minimum.0 grade in a repeated course (a course can be repeated only once). h. Unprofessional behavior and/or conduct that violates the University s Code of Conduct, the AOTA Code of Ethics, or the OT Program s Standards of Professional Conduct.. Students who are dismissed from the OT Program for academic conduct or any other reason are not typically readmitted. In special circumstances, dismissed students may be considered for re-entry. To be considered for re-entry students must have developed and implemented an action plan that would facilitate successful academic performance. Refer to the re-entry policy outlined in the OT Student Handbook for further information. PhilaU MSOT Applicant Handbook, /7 Page 6
