Start of Classes

Orientation for Class of 2009, August 25-26, 2008

Classes for the Complementary and Alternative Medicine MS in Physiology Program students begin following orientation on August 27, 2008. Your individual course schedule will be set during orientation.

AMCAS and the MCAT

Some of our applicants have the goal of attending medical school upon completion of this program. If you have not taken, or need to retake the MCAT, please do so in August before coming to the program, or wait until next August. We do not recommend taking the April MCAT, because of the spring courseload. There will be time during orientation to meet with a faculty advisor to discuss questions about your application, and the support you will receive from the Program.
