Undergraduate Catalog 2010-2012 75 Pre-Medical, Pre- Notes: Osteopathic, Pre-Dental, Pre-Veterinary, and Pre- Podiatric Programs

In most cases, successful applicants to medical, osteopathic, dental, and podiatric schools have completed a B.A. or B.S. degree. The baccalaureate degree major may be in any field of study. Four courses in chemistry, three in biology, two in physics, two in mathematics and two in English are required by most medical, osteopathic, podiatric, and dental schools. The requirement for a large number of science courses probably explains the fact that, at Siena Heights University, most successful applicants to these professional schools hold baccalaureate degree majors in biology.

Admission to professional programs in the various areas of health services is highly competitive. Hence, the student whose goal is a career in the health professions is advised:

1. To develop a good grade point average beginning with his/her first semester in college. 2. To obtain work or volunteer experience related to his/her career goal. 3. To participate in some extra-curricular activities to develop leadership potential and to broaden his/her spheres of interest. 4. To plan carefully to meet the financial requirements of extensive training.

76 Siena Heights University Pre-Professional Science Notes:

Associate of Science Degree Students planning to transfer for professional study in pharmacy, physical therapy, and mortuary science may complete initial requirements toward these studies and earn an A.S. degree on completion of an approved 60 semester hour program. Students planning such a transfer should obtain information on requirements from the school to which they plan to transfer and work closely with the Coordinator of the Pre-Professional Science program to work out an approved course of study.

A. Pre-Professional Science Requirements...... 30 semester hours

B. Liberal Arts...... 16-18 semester hours (depends on courses selected in major)

C. General and Approved Electives12-14. semester hours

D. Total for Major and Degree...... 60 semester hours

Completion of science and liberal arts requirements are necessary for admission into health professional schools.

Many schools of optometry, physical therapy, chiropractic medicine, pharmacy, mortuary science, and veterinary medicine accept applications from students who are completing their sophomore year of college and all of the science and liberal arts requirements. There is a trend developing among some of these professional schools to require or prefer more extensive preparation than two years of college. Requirements differ from school to school in these pre-professional areas. Therefore, students planning to transfer to one of these professional schools should make an appointment with a science advisor as soon as possible during orientation or the first semester of class work.

For information regarding preparation for a career in medical technology, please refer to the biology major.
