For Students

Thank you for your interest in a student experience at St. Luke's. Our team works diligently and creatively to offer access to a variety of educational and professional development opportunities throughout our health system.  

To participate in a student experience at St. Luke’s, an affiliation agreement must be in place with your school and your program. To find out if an agreement is in place, please email [email protected].

Affiliation agreements outline the requirements for both the institution and the student. Please ask your school coordinator for full details. The following are requirements that must be kept on file with your school:

  • Proof of immunizations, testing, or titer results
  • A clear background check, per our criteria
  • Personal health insurance

St. Luke's tries to accommodate as many students as possible per their educational objectives and goals; however, please note that approval is dependent on preceptor availability and unit capacities.

High School Juniors or Seniors Not Enrolled in an Allied Health Program

  • St. Luke’s works to facilitate educational interview opportunities for high school juniors or seniors that are not enrolled in an allied health program. Interviews with a healthcare professional provide an educational opportunity to gain an understanding of a profession and the educational preparation necessary. 
  • Students are not allowed to observe in patient care areas or participate in direct patient interventions. 
  • If no patients are present, they may receive a tour of a treatment area for an explanation of equipment and diagnosis served at the site to enhance their entry-level knowledge.
