Medical professionals make an important contribution to the welfare of
many individuals both as health practitioners and as researchers. This
curriculum is designed to prepare students who plan to apply to medical
school. Unless students have already earned a B.S. or B.A. degree,
they will apply to medical school after transferring to a four-year college
or university. In many colleges, students must choose a major other
than pre-medicine. Students often select a major which will provide an
alternative career route should they change their occupational plans.
Pre-medical students should obtain a copy of the Association of American
Medical Colleges (AAMC) Admissions Requirements Handbook on
pre-medical programs and the requirements for admission to
AAMC-approved medical schools. A copy can be ordered through the
Association of American Medical Colleges, Section for Student Services,
Suite 201, 2450 N. Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20037.

GENERAL EDUCATION CORE
(General education core credits in excess of 36 will transfer as general electives or courses related to the major. Each student’s total of general education and required courses must equal at least 60 semester hours of credit.)
