We are deeply saddened by the sudden closure of Clayton College of Natural Health this summer. As news reports and details of their closure are released, we have discovered that many students have been left with partially completed Herbalist and Holistic Professional credentials.

While we feel strongly that health related degrees should only be awarded by regionally accredited colleges, and that non-traditional schools should use terminology that better reflects the certification they provide, we greatly appreciated their contribution to the field of natural health. Therefore, we have created a special transfer program specifically to assist the students that have already invested significantly into their studies.

If you or someone you know was affected by this closure, please contact our office for information. We will be taking special care of Clayton transfer students, providing you partial credits for tuition and for material previously covered. We do not typically accept transfer students in this way, so the program will be limited to those affected by the closure and will be available only until October 31, 2010. It will apply to students seeking herbalism certificates (Family Herbalist or Clinical Master Herbalist) or Holistic  Wellness Professional students. For more details about our unique Clayton transfer program, please contact an adviser at Admissions (at) VintageRemedies (dot) com. For more information on our certification programs, visit the website at www.VintageRemedies.com
