The fourth year consists of advanced professional courses and clinical practicums. Practicums are offered at a variety of South Texas health care facilities. Students may need to relocate to these sites during their senior year for 2 to 4 weeks. Currently, the University provides housing for students who complete practicums at affiliates outside San Antonio. However, there is no guarantee that this provision will continue.
