When i first visited Bastyr University, I thought that the university itself will be more of a research facility where the students are very professional in presenting why they choose Bastyr and even the naturopathic medicine field. However, when i first walked into the open house, although their food was decent, I found their own students failed to meet my own expectations as professionals. I thought it was just only me but I found there are other students who have said the same thing about Bastyr where the school ever since it changed presidents, it has went downhill. I found that the students can easily get into the "New Age" mess through the indoctrination of what is naturopathy instead of diving deeper into how the science works, which really does ruin my interest in the field and the school although I still have the love for naturopathic medicine. Overall, I found that as much as I love the facility and how it is isolated in the middle of nowhere at Kenmore, i found that the school needs some renovation in the student body. if they do that whee they select the students and prepare them better to present themselves, then the school will get a good reputation afterwards. Otherwise, i don't think the school will gain back what it has lost.

First, I want to say that I've given serious and genuine effort to this school before I writing this review, but after so many experiences in the admissions and interview process in trying to transfer to Bastyr to finish my ND education, I am sincerely alarmed and would not recommend this school to anyone at the moment. I went through serious politics at SCNM (naturopathic med school in AZ) after severe instances of bullying the administration would not address which worsened after my cohort classmate died in a tragic car fire (he feared he was being weeded out) and then an instructor was arrested for child molestation a few weeks after. I had failed an exam that had created an academic dismissal until I found out years later that the professor had her medical license revoked years prior, had endangered the public, had failed a jurisprudence exam, and then was found to be falsifying student grades (which likely happened to me). I had been applying to other schools long before it had gotten this bad at SCNM, and I started to pick up on a very fraudulent theme between the schools to take your money, make promises, but not do good business. In efforts to move forward, I applied to Bastyr and explained my situation honestly taking responsibility for where my weaknesses were but also being very honest about errors made that were not in my control. I found myself easily rejected by this school after I made serious efforts and invested considerably in my med school education. Early on, I received a phone call from Jane Guiltinan on my voice mail that was so hateful that she even said that "we wouldn't even consider you as a student" and nearly laughed that I had applied given my circumstance. I couldn't meet with any of the staff in person and was rejected in person meetings with Jane Guiltinan, Susan Weider, Arianna Staruch, even while Christine Masterson worked considerably to help try to open the door for me with this staff. In a time when women are working hard to step forward, many of these women put serious and detrimental road blocks in the paths of women to succeed. I applied diligently for about four years, each year bringing new evidence to the table that illegal issues had happened at SCNM and that I needed to be considered fairly. I was assertive and persistent. I finally was invited for an interview to Bastyr's San Diego campus in 2015 during a critical masters thesis time only to be interviewed by Tim Schwaiger, who was on my appeals committee for my academic dismissal fight at SCNM. He used the meeting as an intimidating meeting to essentially tell me in person that I would not be admitted even after publishing in the field, performing well, and having taken extra pre-recs for Bastyr. He didn't even care. I had spent hundreds of dollars to fly in, rent a car, and put on hold sick kids I was taking care of to walk into an interview to be blackballed by a doctor on a committee who I never had as an instructor and never knew me personally. I had talked about SCNM in my application, which put him as a conflict of interest to interview with. Not to mention, Bastyr has many old SCNM staff who are bothering potential students/interviewees when they interview. All of this is concerning, and I believe they are intentionally trying to hurt students and potential students in this process. They have clear agendas that are not authentic with with honoring talented potential students, and devalue any prep someone has done to be successful. Do not apply or go to this school at this time. They have not corrected anything in my direction even after numerous attempts to correct the facts, and I am concerned for anyone coming into this school and becoming vulnerable to this culture. This is a serious monetary investment, sacrifice, and it is very edgy emotionally and mentally to be an ND student. These staff members are not helpful but harmful. It simply does not represent what is needed to become a successful ND and the culture is more cut-throat rather than practical, grounded, and empowering toward success.

John J's review prompted me to write my own. I am a current Bastyr University student. The school is not doing well, but I don't believe it has anything to do with "social justice warriors". It's due to a board and administration that has put expansion over quality staff, faculty and education. This is why staff and faculty primarily are leaving en masse, and students will follow soon. Bastyr is experiencing a lot of problems, but I won't try to blame it on a culture war against upstanding people that don't like "BDSM" dances (I'm assuming this is in reference to a valentine's party in the cafeteria where a few people dressed risque as a joke..). If you are a prospective student, do not hesitate to message me with any questions you may have about this school.
