College Students

Opportunities for College Students

We enjoy partnering with colleges and universities around the Northwest to provide students with educational work experiences. College students make up Samaritan’s largest and most diverse group of students, covering the full spectrum of health care delivery.

Your application for any experience must be submitted at least 30 days in advance.

Internships & Practicums 

Are you enrolled in a program that requires an educational or clinical experience to graduate? Internships and practicums provide students with the opportunity to obtain academic credit in a health care degree program. Students interested in completing an internship or practicum for academic credit must submit an Internship Request Form. 

Job Shadowing

Are you interested in shadowing a health care professional? Job shadowing is an activity that allows students to explore various professions in healthcare. This is a short-term experience which offers no academic credit and is hosted by professionals to help students gain an insider’s view of a career field. Students interested in this opportunity can complete the College Job Shadowing Application. OSU students must submit the application through Handshake, the OSU Career Development Center job board.

Onboarding & Clearance Process

If your application is accepted and approved, you will be provided with instructions on how to complete the clearance process specific to your program. Do you have more questions? Contact Samaritan Student Services for more information.
