ND Open House Helps Future NDs Find Their Academic "Home"
"I can't even express how much I enjoyed this open house," says a prospective student who attended Bastyr’s recent Naturopathic Medicine Open House. "I learned so much and now feel that I found the program I've been searching for. After listening to the keynote presentation, I knew I was home." During the two-day open house, Bastyr admissions staff hosted 150 students, all considering a career in naturopathic medicine. On Friday, participants met faculty members and toured the teaching clinic. On Saturday they spent time on campus listening to lectures and case reviews, taking campus tours, finding out about financial aid and applying to the program. The Naturopathic Medicine Open House is an annual event. Find out about other Bastyr open houses and informational sessions.
