Rigorous academics. Real-world experiences. Rooted in whole-person care.

At John Carroll University’s College of Health, we prepare students to become ethical leaders, innovative thinkers, and compassionate healers. With both clinical and non-clinical tracks, early assurance partnerships, and professional enrichment programs, we empower students to succeed in a rapidly changing healthcare landscape. 

Our location in Northeast Ohio’s healthcare hub — home to Cleveland Clinic, University Hospitals, and MetroHealth — our students have unmatched opportunities to learn, serve, and lead alongside world-class healthcare professionals. 

Rooted in Jesuit values and a tradition of holistic care, we guide each student’s personal and professional discernment journey so they can discover the right path in healthcare and beyond.
