New York State Board of Regents Approves New Northeast College Long Island Branch Campus

LEVITTOWN, N.Y. – Northeast College of Health Sciences is proud to announce that the New York State Board of Regents has officially approved its new Long Island branch campus in Levittown, N.Y. With this approval, the College now moves toward offering a branch of its renowned Doctor of Chiropractic program in the branch location, with proposed start date* of Fall 2024.

The establishment of the Long Island Campus marks a significant milestone for Northeast College, reinforcing its commitment to providing high-quality health sciences education across New York state. Founded over 100 years ago, Northeast College has a longstanding tradition of excellence in health sciences, which began with the establishment of its hallmark Doctor of Chiropractic program in Manhattan in 1919.

The College's return to the New York metro area represents a strategic effort to meet the growing demand for healthcare professionals in the region. “We are excited to establish this new branch campus and bring our high standards of healthcare education to Long Island, continuing in our mission of fostering excellence, leadership and best practices,” said Northeast College President Dr. Michael Mestan.

Northeast College’s main campus is located in Seneca Falls, N.Y., in the heart of the state’s Finger Lakes region, and offers a number of on-site graduate and undergraduate degrees in the health sciences: doctor of chiropractic, AAS in radiologic technology, AAS in diagnostic medical sonography, and a certificate in massage therapy. As well, the College offers two fully online master’s degrees, an M.S. in applied clinical nutrition and an M.S. in human anatomy & physiology instruction. Northeast also runs several community-based health centers across New York state.

In addition to its planned new branch offering the Doctor of Chiropractic program, Northeast College’s Long Island location will continue to be the home of the Ernest G. Napolitano Postgraduate Center and the College’s Levittown Health Center, a community-based clinic offering complementary healthcare.
