<p>I have to say I don’t know why we don’t see much activity for things such as OT. Perhaps students who are interested in such fields as early as 11th grade may not consider a liberal arts college experience but instead be drawn to the more comprehensive universities where the major offerings seem to link up in a more linear way to the career they hope to pursue? That would be my guess. Just from a point-of-view standpoint, we (at the pre-admission stage) don’t often spend a lot of time doing career prep–but instead have a much more broad, critical inquiry education prep–kind of outlook, so perhaps that is not appealing to students who are already so focused on a specific career. Maybe it would be worth contacting an OT admission office and talking about the differences in preparation that their students bring to the professional program from liberal arts colleges vs. comprehensive universities. That might shed some light. </p>
<p>I hope that helps!</p>
