Pre-Medical Accelerated Curriculum
The Post-Baccalaureate Pre-Medical Accelerated graduate certificate program at Agnes Scott College is a selective, cohort-based program designed for the student who has excelled in past academic programs and is preparing to apply to medical, dental or veterinary school.
Our Post-Baccalaureate Pre-Medical Accelerated program provides students with a strong foundation in the necessary science classes, as well as guidance through the competitive medical school application and selection process. Here are just a few of the valuable aspect of this program:
- MCAT Test Prep Included:
This program includes a complementary, cohort-exclusive MCAT prep course that starts after fall semester and throughout the spring semester, offered by either BluePrint or the Princeton Review. Students are eligible to select between these programs offered, and can opt for a DAT prep or GRE prep course instead if they are interested in dental or veterinary school. - Full-time Cohort:
Our Pre-Medical Accelerated program is a 12-month, full-time cohort program consisting of 36-credit hours over three semesters (June-May). Students begin in the summer semester and attend classes in-person, full-time during the day. - Applied Experience:
Students have the opportunity to participate in a physician-designed signature course series to enhance your competitive profile, including courses in Professional Success in Medicine and Health, along with a clinical practicum. You’ll develop your clinical skills and complete a community service project or volunteer experience in an Atlanta hospital, clinic or nonprofit.
