Students
should consult with their advisor to determine the best program for
their individual needs. Those who wish to apply to medical, dental,
veterinary, pharmacy or other graduate schools should also ascertain the
specific admission requirements for the professional schools to which
they plan to apply. Consultation with the academic advisor is
recommended and the standard curriculum can then be enhanced
accordingly. Students may also wish to complete requirements for a minor
in Chemistry or Biochemistry (descriptions of these minors are provided
under the Chemistry Department section of this catalog).
Additional information is available from the Biology
Department Office.
The Pre-Medical and Other Pre-Health Advising Program is
described in the Institutes and Enrichment Programs section of this
catalog.
