六九色堂

Students in the College of Engineering & Science are assigned an academic advisor to counsel them on the selection of courses and course load prior to registration each term.  Students in the university can also interact with the Director and Advisor of Pre-Health Programs who works with students and recent graduates on their trajectory toward professional school including providing information on interviews, application preparation, personal statements, and volunteer and clinical experiences.  Students also have access to the Pre-Health Evaluation Committee who reviews each student at the time of application to professional school. They also provide a written evaluation of each student for the various professional school admissions committees. These letters are used as important criteria of selection.

• Committee Letters are comprehensive letters covering academic and overall activities engaged in during the full college career.
• Disproportionately committee letters are for dental or medical school applications.
• The application period for the Committee Letter process is between January to March of each year.
• Scheduling a meeting with the Director and Advisor of Pre-Health Programs is required to gain access to this process.

Students preparing for careers in medicine, dentistry and other clinical professions follow programs that enable them to complete the basic requirements for admission into professional school at the same time they are fulfilling the departmental requirements in their field of major concentration. Most pre-health students major in biology, biochemistry, or chemistry, but this is not necessary. Graduate schools in the health professions accept students who have majored in areas other than science as long as they acquire a solid basic knowledge of biology, chemistry, physics and mathematics.
