“Day in the Life” Series

It’s important for prospective students to have an idea of what a “Day in the Life” of a master’s or doctorate level education is like, especially here at Salus. Many ask, “What is the ‘typical’ day like for a Salus student?” While there is no way to specifically answer that, given the variety of interests of the students here as well as the expectations and curriculum within the various programs, the University’s “Day in the Life” series can give a prospective student a sense of what a typical day looks like in each year – clinical and didactic – within each of our programs.
