  • Clinical Education I: Secondary School Preseason Athletics (3 weeks)

Students must be able to provide their own transportation to and from clinical sites. Clinical Education Experiences and Supplemental Clinical Experiences may occur at a great distance from Bethlehem. During these experiences, students may choose to live near their clinical sites. Identifying housing options, and the cost of this relocation is the responsibility of the student.

I really like the design of the program. I feel as though I am able to fully focus on school and clinical without having to prioritize one over the other.”
