The UST Post-Bacc Pre-Med Certificate provides students with:
- Required pre-med prerequisites
- MCAT prep
- Medical shadowing experiences from UST alumni-physicians
- Professional skills for entry into medical school
Students will learn the skills of the application process to medical school including CV, personal statement, secondary application, interview, MMI interview, medical ethics, and more. Additionally, the program will provide development of pre-professional competencies, including teamwork, reliability, oral communication, social skills, service orientation/volunteering, adaptability, and moral/ethical development.
Students will also be assigned a Health Professions Advisory Committee (HPAC) advisor and receive an HPAC composite committee letter when applying to medical school. Currently, more than 70% of Post-Bacc Pre-Med students that apply through HPAC have been accepted into medical school.
