Pre-professional Studies
If you plan to attend professional schools in fields such as dental hygiene, dentistry, dietetics, engineering, law, medicine, nursing, occupational therapy, optometry, osteopathy, pharmacy, physical therapy, physician’s associate, radiology, or veterinary medicine, Southeastern has what you’re looking for with respect to pre-professional training.
You’ll gain two things from Southeastern’s pre-professional programs: (1) a solid background for the professional school of your choice, and (2) the educational option of satisfying the requirements for possible graduation from Southeastern.
To earn an undergraduate degree from Southeastern, you will need to select specific combinations of major and minor, double major, or major-minor programs.
The application requirements of most professional schools include the following: (1) a college transcript showing the completion of certain pre-professional college courses, (2) submission of test scores from a national preadmission test, (3) letters of recommendation, and (4) a personal interview with an admissions committee. The best time to plan for entrance to professional schools is at the beginning before you begin your work at Southeastern. Check with your campus academic advisor and with the professional school you plan to attend.
