Pre-Med and Pre-Health Advising
CIU Pre-Med advising is available to prepare students for applying to medical school. The Biomedical Sciences major includes courses in cell biology, genetics, biochemistry, and human anatomy and physiology. While this major is designed to help maximize your potential on the MCAT (Medical College Admission Test), a strong score and a good GPA are not the only factors impacting medical school admissions. Our Pre-med Advising faculty have helped hundreds of students achieve their dream of becoming physicians. They are available to help you with questions regarding the application process, preparing for interviews and writing your personal statements.
We have relationships with medical schools who send recruiters to CIU to help students with the application process.

- Doctor
- Dentist

Our Pre-Health Advising faculty can help you choose the appropriate major (Biomedical Sciences or Health Sciences) as well as the types of extracurricular experiences that will make you competitive in your chosen career path. They are also available to help you select a program that is a good fit for you. Program faculty have experience assisting hundreds of students with admission to graduate health programs.
