PLAN YOUR PATH
Preparation, time and schedule
Before you apply
Review the entry checklist and requirements for clinical externship participation.
Your complete timeline
3-term certificate. Allow separately for prerequisite preparation, selection and the clinical start date.
Plan around the schedule
Campus-based; confirm the current timetable. Ask for the actual days, start times and required travel from Grants Pass / White City — confirm cohort. Online coursework does not necessarily make laboratories or placements remote.
Application and selection
Use the official Medical Assistant page to review the current entry checklist. Ask whether a separate department application, selection process or cohort start applies before committing to enrollment.
