Attention Students!

The New Jersey Occupational Therapy Association is pleased to announce the establishment of our state association’s scholarship with the American Occupational Therapy Foundation! The NJOTA Scholarship will help support OT students obtain their degree and demonstrates our investment into the future of the profession here in New Jersey. 

The new NJOTA Scholarship will offer two awards each year; one scholarship will be available to students enrolled in an occupational therapy degree program and one scholarship will be available to students enrolled in an occupational therapy assistant program. In addition, the students will have an opportunity to review all of the scholarships offered and potentially apply for others.

To be eligible for the NJOTA Scholarship, a student must be a current member of the NJOTA and must be a resident of New Jersey. 

The online application can be found at AOTF’s website, https://www.aotf.org/Scholarships/How-to-Apply 

We apologize for the late notice as we just finalized this effort.  The deadline is approaching, September 29, 2022, so apply now! 
The winners will be announced prior to the AOTA Conference in April 2023.
