The ATW Regional Program utilizes a wide variety of a geographic perspective. Because of the wide geographic distribution of sites and the size of the metropolitan area, students should plan on an average commute of 30-60 minutes to their assigned sites. When choosing temporary housing, students should look for centralized locations with easy freeway access.
All group meetings, practical exams and orientations are held at The University of Texas at Austin College of Pharmacy unless otherwise directed.

SUMMARY
