Why Utica University
IMPORTANT NOTICE FOR FLORIDA STUDENTS
Effective August 31, 2026, Utica University will consolidate its operations to the state of New York. As of that date, the University will no longer offer lab courses in Florida; all nursing courses are and will continue to be offered at New York locations. Affected students will complete their studies in St. Petersburg prior to the closure date.
The hybrid Health Sciences program at Utica University provides foundational learning for students who desire to enter any of a number of different health and health-related professions. Offered through a combination of both on ground and online classes, this program is a strong undergraduate prelude to graduate study in physical and occupational therapy.
Taught by an accomplished faculty, the major in Health Sciences offers a solid grounding for professional accomplishment and more specialized study, following a highly interdisciplinary approach to human health that encompasses everything from anatomy to anthropology to statistics and more.
