  • SAS or SEBS affiliation
  • Biological Sciences Major (119)

Applicants must have submitted the FAFSA through the financial aid office.

As a measure of your commitment to a health professional school, applicants must be registered with the Health Professions Office as a pre-medical student and have a minimum of two letters of recommendation on file at the office.

(Those with Class Year of 2028 with advanced standing are invited to apply next year.)
