In 2024, the college established a new branch campus in Levittown, New York, on Long Island, offering an additional cohort of its Doctor of Chiropractic program.[10] That year, the college also began offering its first undergraduate programs -- AAS and certificate programs -- at its main Seneca Falls campus.[11]

In addition to a Doctor of Chiropractic program, the college offers graduate programs in clinical nutrition, diagnostic imaging, anatomy, and human anatomy & physiology instruction. Undergraduate programs include AAS degrees in diagnostic medical sonography and radiologic technology, as well as a certificate in massage therapy. [12]

The college also runs community clinics in Seneca Falls, Depew, and Levittown, New York. The school is affiliated with the National Naval Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland, and Veterans Hospitals in Syracuse, Buffalo, Canandaigua, and Bath, New York, as well as Miami, Florida.[citation needed]
