Partnering for Growth

UWS joined The Community Solution in 2023, understanding that collaboration and partnership will drive the future of higher education. With support from The Community Solution, UWS has launched a Community-Based Clinical Education program, offering increased flexibility for students to earn clinical hours in their home communities. Students also benefit from expanded administrative support, giving them the resources they need to be successful.
