There is a summer residency that takes place on the Seattle University campus.
- The summer residency occurs one weekend over the summer (usually late July) after the first and the second year in the program.
- The purpose of the summer residency is to develop clinical skills, connect with cohort members, and meet the staff and faculty.
- Attendance and participation in summer residency are required for graduation.
We anticipate students spending $250 for tuition per residency for a total of $500. The summer residency fee does not include costs for hotel and travel, so students are responsible for those fees.
