Course Work 
The College of Medicine has set minimum science requirements of one year each of biology, mathematics, physics, English and two years of chemistry, including organic chemistry. Additional biology courses are strongly recommended. Beyond these, concentration in humanities, sciences or other areas is equally acceptable. A bachelor degree is required.
In considering an applicant, close attention will be paid to the general scope of the academic background, understanding of physical, chemical, biological and social sciences, and sensitivity to humanities.
