Premedicine & Professional Health Careers Post-baccalaureate Certificate Programs

The Northwestern University School of Continuing Studies Premedicine and Professional Health Careers Post-baccalaureate Certificate Programs aim to meet the needs of college graduates who wish to change their career paths and apply to medical school or to seek a career in Professional Health. The programs prepare students to apply to schools of medicine and related professions (dentistry, veterinary medicine, physician assistant, pharmacy, osteopathy, podiatry), as well as programs for clinical psychology, nursing, physical therapy and physician assistant. These concentrations are designed for students who have a bachelor's degree but have not completed or have never taken the courses generally required for admission to these schools.
