I know it is mainly a tech school, but it has a strong biology program and it does offer some psychology courses. I’m worried though that even if I were able to complete all required courses at this school, I wouldn’t be as prepared for OT school as students who attended a school with more of a liberal arts or health science focus. Reading about RPI and the biology courses offered gave me the impression they had a focus on technology. Do you think I would still have a good chance of getting accepted into an occupational therapy graduate program? And how would I look compared to prospective OT students from liberal arts/health science schools?
Can you apply to a 3+2 OT program where you are guaranteed acceptance into an OT program? Are you a senior who already applied? Does RPI have pre-health advising?
A number of schools have direct entry OT programs (I believe many such programs are 6 years but you get a PhD). Have you looked at those? Acceptance into a OT program as a grad student would require strong undergraduate grades overall, strong performance in the prerequisite courses, good GREs, solid recommendations etc.
While mostly known for its engineering, RPI does in fact have a solid pre-health programs, and they do have a pre-health advising committee. I think it’s particularly suited to those who want to do branches of medicine related to biochemistry, but does advertise and helping students get into physical therapy grad school as well.

It has a solid psychology/cogsci department. It also has a relationship with a couple of medical schools (http://admissions.rpi.edu/undergraduate/academics/pre-med.html), though they seem to be more focused on medical research.
I would investigate various OT programs to see what prerequisites are required and see if they are offered at RPI.
