What Covista Inc. does

In the company’s own words

Covista Inc. operates as America's largest healthcare educator, serving approximately 100,000 students supported by an alumni network of 400,000 across five accredited institutions. The company delivers educational programs through Chamberlain University, Walden University, American University of the Caribbean School of Medicine, Ross University School of Medicine, and Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine, operating multiple campuses and online platforms.

The company organizes its business into three reportable segments. Chamberlain offers degree and certificate programs in nursing and health professions, including pre-licensure and post-licensure nursing degrees, graduate nursing programs, and health professions credentials. Walden provides over 100 degree and certificate programs at the bachelor's, master's, and doctoral levels, primarily delivered online, with specializations in nursing, education, counseling, business, information technology, psychology, public health, social work, and criminal justice. The Medical and Veterinary segment encompasses the three medical schools and veterinary program, offering Doctor of Medicine degrees and veterinary education with clinical training relationships across the United States, Canada, and international locations.

Covista's strategy, termed "Purpose at Scale," focuses on expanding access to healthcare education and addressing the U.S. healthcare workforce shortage through four core principles: operational excellence, platform extension, employer integration, and technology focus. The company maintains institutional accreditation through the Higher Learning Commission and holds numerous programmatic accreditations from specialized bodies including the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education, Council on Education for Public Health, and American Veterinary Medical Association.

All five institutions participate in Title IV federal financial aid programs and maintain provisional program participation agreements with the U.S. Department of Education. The company posted $202.6 million in surety-backed letters of credit and $80.0 million in state surety bonds to support regulatory compliance. Chamberlain operates 24 campuses across 16 states with online offerings in 38 states, while Walden operates primarily through distance delivery. The medical and veterinary schools maintain international locations in the Caribbean and United Kingdom with extensive clinical affiliate networks.
