Pre-Health Programs
The College of Arts and Sciences Pre-Health Programs office seeks to provide its students with the best possible preparation for a rewarding career in healthcare.
We help our students understand how to be competitive applicants for health professional programs by guiding them through the academic and extracurricular expectations, the necessary application components, and the application timeline.
Our office will help students identify resources that will assist them in exploring various opportunities in the healthcare field. We recommend meeting regularly with the Pre-Health Academic Program Director or an advisor to help in developing an individualized path.
Students who utilize the Pre-Health Programs' services will be able to:
- Understand the academic and extracurricular expectations for admission to their preferred health professional program
- Undertake the necessary preparation during their undergraduate career
- Identify the appropriate coursework needed for admission to their preferred program
- Navigate the professional school application process with confidence
The College of Arts and Sciences Pre-Health Programs office also coordinates Kent State University's Early Assurance Program partnerships with the Northeast Ohio Medical University (NEOMED) and the Kent State University College of Podiatric Medicine.
