For supplemental Pre-Law advising, please contact the Pre-Law faculty advisors.

Any two year pre-health program (Pre-Nursing, Pre-Dental Hygiene, Pre-Radiation Science Technology, and Pre-Respiratory Therapy):

Any pre-health program that will require a bachelor's degree (Pre-Medicine, Pre-Physician Assistant, Pre-Physical Therapy, Pre-Occupational Therapy, Pre-Dental, Pre-Pharmacy, etc.):

Students who are still exploring majors should contact the Arts & Sciences Advising Center for primary advising.

After students have met with their primary advisor, supplemental pre-health advising is provided by the Health Careers Resource Center (HCRC).
