Pre-Medical, Pre-Veterinary, Pre-Dental and Pre-Optometry programs are not majors but a curriculum designed for students based on the various requirements of different top-tier medical, dental, and veterinary schools throughout the United States. The curriculum is also formulated by recommendations from the Association of American Medical Colleges, dental, veterinary and optometry colleges and universities.
Students in these programs have access to resources designed to ensure they have the knowledge and support they need to successfully navigate the years of preparation it takes to apply to these professional schools. This includes workshops, seminars, graduate school test preparation, simulation lab exercises, peer mentoring, professional school tours and one-on-one discussions with professional school admission officers.
Although requirements vary among schools, below are the basic required courses and the year students should plan to take them at Regis. Every student planning to apply to medical, dental, veterinary, or optometry school should talk to their faculty advisor as soon as possible to design a personalized course plan. Ideally, this will occur before the start of a student's first year at Regis.
