A note about transportation
Bastyr University is located in the north end of King County. Buses in King County are operated by Metro Transportation. If you will be commuting via public transportation, we recommend you consider bus schedules as you research housing options. However, personal vehicles or bicycles are strongly recommended in order to easily commute to Bastyr Center for Natural Health for your required clinical shift. Additionally, Bastyr operates a free shuttle that makes six round trips a day, M-F, between the campus and clinic.
