Geisinger Commonwealth School of Medicine covers counties in northeastern and central Pennsylvania and southern New Jersey, with five regional campuses in Atlantic City, Danville, Lewistown, Sayre and the Northeast (Scranton and Wilkes-Barre). Each campus plays an integral part of the medical school’s distributive model of medical education and provides students with early clinical experiences in diverse settings. The Division of Student Affairs supports medical students during clinical phases of the curriculum through the regional assistant deans of student affairs, who are housed on each clinical site in conjunction with other Division of Student Affairs' centers.
