School of Occupational Therapy Giving Page

Thank you for your interest in supporting the developing PNWU School of Occupational Therapy (SOT).

The vision of the developing Master of Science in Occupational Therapy (MSOT) program is to be a leader in preparing occupational therapy professionals who revolutionize the health of rural and medically underserved communities.

To achieve this vision the MSOT program emphasizes student’s personal and professional development, collaboration with faculty, students, and community members, and service to the communities in which we live, learn, and work. Rural and medically underserved communities are diverse, and work to revolutionize the health of rural and medically underserved communities will be best achieved through the inclusion of diverse perspectives. To welcome and support students from as many walks of life as possible, the PNWU MSOT program has established a scholarship fund to support our future students.


Make history, make a difference.


Your generous gift will make it possible for us to educate future occupational therapists.
