An Overview of NUMSS Admissions to Bachelor of Science in Osteopathy (BSc (Ost)) Program
Thank you for your interest in the online on-demand Bachelor of Science in Osteopathy – BSc (Ost) degree program of National University of Medical Sciences (Spain). Our Admissions department is eager to help you in any way we can. We invite you to contact NUMSS (admissions@numss.com) and ask us any questions you may have. All osteopathy classes are offered online in English language. The video lectures are available on-demand online through internet or they may be watched on a TV screen by using a portable hard drive that could be shipped to students. Students from every corner of the world are eligible to apply and study at the comfort of their homes. However students who wish to practice osteopathic techniques under supervision of an osteopath have the choice of attending an optional week long practical techniques review at Panama, twice per year. The practical lab is not part of the program and students can graduate without attending the lab. Attendance is not mandatory.
