Pre-Medical/Pre-Dental/Pre-Pharmacy

Medical, dental, and pharmacy schools accept students from any academic major. However, a strong background in science, including biology, chemistry, and mathematics, is recommended and/or required for entrance into most professional health programs. Successful completion of the B.S. Biology degree provides excellent preparation for medical, dental, or pharmaceutical studies. The B.S. Biology major is also excellent preparation for professional health school admissions tests including the MCAT, DAT, and PCAT. See here for more information on how the Mount prepares students for professional health schools.
