The Medex Northwest PA program is expanding training opportunities for 2009. A satellite site has been added for 2009 in Anchorage, AK in collaboration with UAA. This training option will join the Yakima satellite site as an undergraduate program leading to a bachelor’s degree through UAA or UW. A UW Master’s degree will be available to students enrolled in Seattle and Spokane, WA. The entering classes of 2009 must apply by October 1, 2008.
Recruiting rural and Alaska Native students, especially Community Health Aids, paramedics and prior military remains a top priority for MEDEX. If you are an applicant who is planning to apply to Medex, Anchorage site for 2009, you need to complete all the Medex prerequisites in the next 6 months and apply to Medex by Oct 1 of 2008. The UAA BSHS program offers you an academic “home” while you work on the prerequisites for the Medex program.
You can check with UAA Native Student Services for general assistance. They may also have some info on housing.
