Note: This program can be completed part-time evenings or as a full-time student.
A Pre-Medical School track can be taken as the area of concentration for students wishing to prepare for entrance to Medical or Dental Schools. Consultation with the Program Director and a Health Professions Advisor is essential, and attendance in some day-time science courses would be required.
A General Science track can be taken as the area of concentration for students wishing to prepare for entrance to programs in the Allied Health Professions (i.e. , Physicians Assistant, Physical Therapy, Master’s degrees in the Health Sciences, etc.) Consultation with the Program Director and a Health Professions Advisor is essential, and attendance in some day-time science courses would be required.
Students who are full-time in the Advanced Standing program may take up to 32 credits for the Fall and Spring semesters each academic year.
Students who have previously taken college courses in the curriculum must substitute the course(s) with courses related to that appropriate area of the curriculum.
