This partnership ensures 25% of the seats in the School of Medicine are reserved exclusively for Seton Hall graduates, and Seton Hall has designed an innovative Joint Bachelor’s/MD program for incoming freshmen.

It’s also the home of Seton Hall’s highly acclaimed College of Nursing and the School of Health and Medical Sciences, which offers programs such as Athletic Training, Occupational Therapy, Physical Therapy, Physician Assistant, Speech-Language Pathology, and more. This interprofessional learning environment creates an innovative, team-based approach that provides students advantageous opportunities to work collaboratively, improve patient care, and better prepare to enter health care professions. The IHS campus is located on the border of Clifton and Nutley, New Jersey, only 20 minutes from Seton Hall’s South Orange campus.
