Pre-Dentistry, Pre-Medicine, or Pre-Veterinary
Any student desiring to attend dental, medical, or veterinary school will, in most cases, be required to complete a baccalaureate degree in the field of choice. In addition, specific course requirements must be met in Biology, Chemistry, English, Mathematics, Physics, and the Behavioral Sciences. Students must also complete the Dental Aptitude Test (DAT) or the Medical College Admissions Test (MCAT) before making application to dental or medical school. The application and interview process for medical and dental school takes approximately one year. The curriculum is designed to support a student’s application at the end of the junior year. However, students may choose to delay certain coursework and apply after graduation.
