ATSU-SOMA educates medical students under a relatively new medical educational model, which links osteopathic training to the nation's Community Health Centers. A partnership exists between ATSU and the National Association of Community Health Centers. The ATSU-ASDOH implemented a model integrating state of the art training with patient care needs in Community Health Centers (CHCs). ATSU-SOMA works in partnership with eleven sites to integrate medical education with preparation for the most complex healthcare careers. A hometown program exists to offer an opportunity for medical students previously connected to CHCs to gain admission. The Center of Advanced Oral Health at A.T. Still University's Arizona School of Dentistry and Oral Health in Mesa, Arizona opened in 2014 to provide dentistry for those with advanced oral health needs developed in response to the complex needs of patients in undeserved communities. 〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Campus Locations )〕 ATSU is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission, a commission of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools (NCA).〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.ncahlc.org/component/com_directory/Action,ShowBasic/Itemid,/instid,2004/ )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「A.T.
