Description

Option in Premedical Studies

www.trentu.ca/premedicalstudies

The Option in Premedical Studies is intended for students who are planning to pursue a professional career in a medically related field upon completion of any Trent University undergraduate degree. It is targeted specifically at students who are considering entry into a medical school and is open to students in any discipline at Trent. Many of the academic areas of required study for medical school entry are applicable for entry into the schools of dentistry, veterinary medicine, and pharmacy, making this Option appropriate for those considering these professions. The Option includes entry-based academic content relevant to the Medical College Admissions Test (MCAT), the Dental Admission Test (DAT), and Pharmacy College Admission Test (PCAT). It also includes courses from the social sciences and humanities that are recommended or required for entrance into medical and other health-related professional schools. Academic requirements for individual medical schools vary and students are responsible for consulting the specific school’s admissions criteria when choosing their electives.

Students should note that it is not possible to take all courses listed in the Option within a single- or joint-major degree, and that upper-year courses often have prerequisite requirements.

Students who have fulfilled the requirements for an Honours or a General degree in any subject may graduate with an Option in Premedical Studies if they have successfully completed the following 4.0 credits with a minimum grade of 75% in each course:

  • 1.0 credit from category A (Humanities)

  • 2.0 credits from category B (Sciences)

  • 1.0 credit from category C (Social Sciences)

A - Humanities

B - Science

C - Social Sciences
