Which schools are near me?

Which schools are near me?

Wanting a program you can actually drive to — rather than one that means uprooting your life — is a completely reasonable thing to weigh, and it's usually the very first question anyone asks once TCM school moves from an idea to a real plan.

Since this is a static page rather than a live chat, I don't actually know where you're writing from — so I can't point to "your" nearest school yet. What I can do is lay out where accredited TCM/acupuncture programs cluster, so you can see whether one is already in your corner of the country. Here's the California picture, since it's the most concentrated in the country:

(Source: 2026-27 federal school-code list, as we last checked it in 07/2026 — a school's participation or exact campus can shift, so treat this as a solid starting map rather than the final word.)

Outside California, there are accredited programs in Texas (Houston, Austin), Florida (Orlando, Gainesville, Bradenton), Wisconsin, North Carolina, Massachusetts, New York, Illinois, and Pennsylvania, among others — so if you're not in the Bay Area, there's a real chance something is closer than you'd expect.

If you'd rather not scan a map yourself, tell the chat below roughly where you're located, and I'll pull up whatever's genuinely near you — including whether San Jose or Santa Cruz would be the easier drive if Five Branches turns out to be an option. Where are you writing in from?
